3D Studio Max，常简称为3ds Max或MAX，是Autodesk公司开发的基于PC系统的三维动画渲染和制作软件。其前身是基于DOS操作系统的3D Studio系列软件，最新版本是2013。在Windows NT出现以前，工业级的CG制作被SGI图形工作站所垄断。3D Studio Max + Windows NT组合的出现一下子降低了CG制作的门槛，首选开始运用在电脑游戏中的动画制作，后更进一步开始参与影视片的特效制作，例如X战警II，最后的武士等。

Digital-Tutors Environment Modeling Concepts in 3ds Max
In this series of 3ds Max tutorials, we will discuss the concepts, techniques, and tools involved in modeling props, environments, and sets.
When building computer generated models for games, film, or broadcast, believable environments, props, and sets are a vital component. The environment sets the stage for the story to play out and can be comprised of hundreds of assets organized into multiple set pieces. Props and environment models are more forgiving regarding their topology because they rarely need to deform. They do present their own challenges however. In this course we will talk about some of those specific challenges environment modelers will face as they start out.
We’ll talk about different modeling methods and how our approach to smoothing the models affects the workflow we use. We’ll also talk about cleaning our assets and creating an organized hierarchy within our scenes. We’ll also cover some modeling tips like using modifiers or breaking down repeated objects into manageable sections.
In the end you’ll have a head start on creating and dressing your own environment models and sets.
