have just downloaded this program (retail it sells for $17,000 USD) and zOMG it looks like some fking pro shit here... sooo.... has anyone heard of it and/or knows how to use it, or knows anywhere i can get some resources to learn how to use it? (i know it will probably take months or even years to be able to use this kind of program but i just wanna learn the verry basics)

btw if you suck up to me enough i mite be able to link you up if you want...

I'll get the link of msn :D

Lol.. 17k us retail eh?

Anyhow, no I havent heard of it.. but im pretty sure you could find either the manual to help you learn or some good tutorials on the web or try a p2p program, I have 3d Max and ive found quite a few good tuts just from p2p programs ( i use Ares ).

Other then that you might wanna try something easier to start off with man :P ( I got 3d max and its pretty damn hard as is lol, and this sounds better and more complex from what you say ) just a thought anyway, also i think 3d max currently is a much more widely used program in animation industry.. I dont think lightwave is used anymore but bleh.. anyhow theres alot more tutorials for 3D's max also so yeh worth taking a look at perhaps.

I know for one my cousins company uses it ( Lightknights is his company well he owns half of it ) and they use Lightwave for some other effects where 3d max doesnt do better.. which 3d max does exceed most aspects of lightwave. So yeh.. he has about 100 animators working for him atm. But yeh as i said i think most companies are using 3D max so if you wanna bother learning a animation program = not easy :P then your probly better to go with the one been used so you might be able to put your skills to use. Not necessarily doing animation for a job... but many people sell their models they make in 3dmax for under 100 right up to 500+ US dollars.

Hope that helps you.

sounds wicked, might google it and chek out some ss of ppls work, etc...

if anyone actually knows to to use it i would be more than happy to supply them with it (only a 90mb download, unpacks to about 600mb)... but from seeing this i can say that theres no point getting it just cos its worth alot, cos you will have absolutely NO idea how to use it (i know i dont :P).

as i said dude try searching tuts on google or a p2p program...
Sites like www.good-tutorials.com they have great photoshop tuts i think they might have some 3d max ones now maybe im not sure maybe something on your program worth a try perhaps... Animation programs arent impossible and you dont have to go to uni or tafe to learn them if your determined you can do it just by tuts.. But obviously very hard until you know your basic stuff that is the layers for more complex things.

I might have a look later.. n if i find something ill post it here for you but i really cbf atm just got home from work and its like 1 am and early start so yeh to tired :P.

Click the above link to go to the above site located within the link of course but dont try to ask too many questions because you will feel very guilty because you have pirated a software that costs a shitload you know you should feel very bad but hopefully you will get some help and im sure you will just dont ask very stupid questions or they will doubt that you purchased the software because no idiot would spend that amount of money on something they dont even remotely understand which would be rare because if you were in that industry you would understand how to use it even if it wasnt much.

You know what i mean i hope you do because i tried explaining it simple and sweet you know no periods no commas no shit just like you like it served best at ragezone.


Farewell,
:bye2:

i have this program on cd but im no shur its full or not
for tutorial i cant help you but you can register this thing for free in the web site of the company and use it at home for free ;)

zOMG, 17.000 USD ...damn... Thought 3ds max was expensive >.<. Altough i work with 3ds max to but its pretty damn hard. Cant model any characters yet, but level designing goes pretty good :D.

The program sucks >_> or I'm just too stupid for it..
