To recap though, 3DS Max is much easier to get into. Than again, that really depends on your creative needs. It could offer you the best of both worlds for a better price. It is also MUCH cheaper than Autodesk software. However I will say that Zbrush 4R7 seems to do a much a better job of handling subdivision modeling with the new modeling tools they added. With the wide number of brushes available, you have more control over the polygons and the level of detail you can add.
This is why Zbrush is great for character design. Zbrush as a sculpting program was optimized to handle hundreds of thousands (or even millions if your rig can handle it) of polygons in a modeling session. It is easier to maintain your geometry as well because you typically don’t work with a very high number of polygons in subdivision modeling software. Also, subdivision modeling in general is easier to master because it is more absolute, and less abstract. As mentioned already the UI is more consistent with your typical modeling software, whereas ZBrush is very unusual and takes time and practice to get down. I can use Vue pretty well, havent tried world creator or World machine, I went to the wm website and saw it was all that connect the dots system, nodes i think they call it, on the other hand there is probuilder coming to ue4 which isnt a replacement for max or modo but im assuming its better then bsp as you can do more complex stuff with it,ģDS Max is certainly easier to jump into. You could collect mesh packs / materials & create levels using placeholders. Modeling takes patience, attention to little details and isn’t for everybody, no more than being a programmer is…īut what if you’re an Indie, in particular a one man show, then you’ve got no option but to force yourself right? Take a step back… Maybe you’re a level designer & not cut out to be a modeler. The logical remaining options are Maya LT / Blender / Modo etc, but the latter you already tried. Its not a replacement for a 3D app or making efficient assets for video games.
#Learning zbrush 4 license
The problem with learning Max is that the license cost is prohibitive & its future as a product is not 100% certain.īut Zbrush isn’t the answer either.
