Monday, February 25, 2008. In this tutorial, using 3dsmax, we will make a Clear (Transparent) Glass material and apply to some objects.

3 dimension architectural: MATERIAL LIBRARIES
http://3d-architect.blogspot.com/2008/02/material-libraries.html
Friday, February 1, 2008. Ted Boardman tedb@tbmax.com http:/ www.tbmax.com. I’d like to thank Jeff Mottle for hosting a great get-together for the cgarchitect participants of Siggraph 2002. Frankly, I was a little surprised there are so many architects at Siggraph, especially with the economy lagging these days. Siggraph is heavily skewed toward the film and television crowd with a fair amount of computer gaming thrown in. Hope to see more of you next year in San Diego. Now Where Did I Put That? 8221; so...

There are a few default settings in both max and VIZ to do not always lend them...

Saturday, February 2, 2008. Ted Boardman tedb@tbmax.com http:/ www.tbmax.com. Well, it really looks as if summer is not going to make it to New England. Small low-pressure weather systems have been spiraling up the east coast bringing a steady northeasterly wind off ocean water that is still around 55 degrees F.
