2.0 out of 5 stars Good Book...Bad Timing, July 28, 2005
This review is from: 3ds max 7 New Features and Production Workflow (Paperback)
I purchased this book 2 weeks ago which happened to be the same time that AutoDesk released it's free 3ds max 7.5 update to current subscribers. This update includes hair and fur as well as a newer version of Mental Ray. This is where the problem with this books tutorial dvd comes in. Almost everyone of the files I opened from the cd gave me several .dll errors or mental ray version mismatch error rendering the dvd useless. So without any of the files that the lessons in the book refer to it's very difficult to learn any of the material that this book was intended for. If you are using 3ds max 7 and not 7.5 then this would probaly be a good book for you. But free hair and fur and a new cloth engine is your trade off.
