再請問一下^^

學3ds和mayaㄉ差別到底在哪裡ㄋ?或是哪一個比較有用?

[Siegfried]

That depends on the ppl who use the software, remember they are just tools that being manipulated.

Maya - common in CG industry but $$$ and hard for self-learning ...
Max - More plug-in, more reference book in the mkt, well-developed in game industry.

哪一個比較有用?

o...... 這個題目可以爭論十年以上

做 game 相關的當然是 max 啦!

做3d 的話, max & maya 差別不大...... 不過還可以這樣比較:
1. 做 polygon model, max 較方便
2. maya 有 nurbs modeling, 不過比較少應用到 production 上
3. animation 方面..... maya 第一!
4. texture mapping 似乎 max 占優
5. maya shading network + mel scripts 可以發揮無限可能性
6. lighting (我指傳統 direct lighting) ..... 平手
7. max 有大量 rendering engines 可供選擇
8. particle, effects...... max 有大量 plug-in 即食罐頭; maya 變化較多, 不過牽涉物理計算, 所以比較慢

希望可以給你作一個參考

Software comparsion is another ever green topic. verynice.

my idea is: for movie, maya go first as it has better work flow deisgned for team and production pipeline and better connection with prman(uncommon in HK).


For game: no personal experience but I guess 3d max is kind of popular althought thera re quit a few japanese game maker switched to softimage and maya.
