3ds max is a lot better but if you dont wanna spend that kind of money then gmax is just fine
ive never even tried gmax but everyone else has the same opinion and know that there r less features then in 3ds

All Gmax is this;
It's 3d Studio Max with less features and a little different UI. That's about it.

No problem. I don't believe in flaming, because we were all new at one point. Whether we like to admit it or not, we were all n00bs at one time. So I don't want to turn someone away when they could become a good modder one day.

wait! don't get gmax, get the trial of 3ds, and you don't always have to buy it. not nameing any sites or ways to get it, you just don't have to pay the $3000 for the new one

you can find the trial of 3dsmax there. I can't make head-to-toe of how to use 3ds, tho. I can't find any vids in this section either.

3ds Max is only for the people who actually need it (for their job, school, work). gMax should work just fine.

just grab 3ds Max 6 off of newsgroups; it's posted every now and then. i believe the program for newsgroups is Grabit; just google that.
