first class, learning progress

8th april, monday is the first class of learning 3d max with Mr.Angus. After a brief introduction, students started to draw walls in autocad. Before importing 2d image from autocad to 3d max. It's important to group and label each elements of the building such as grouping wall, door, flooring separately. The reason of grouping each element in one is to convenient us and easy to extrude out each element in 3d max in later stage. 

 extruded wall with a few openings. 

                                         

                                         A pathway is then added.

                                         1. draw polylines

                                         2. delete "non-edited" lines (left only edited, as shown in figure below)

                                         3. save and import to 3d max

                                         4. in 3d max, import and merge the drawing. the pathway will be

                                             added perfectly if orientation of drawing or position is not change.

                                             (as shown in figure above)

                                          4 views (elevations, top view, perspective) of drawing

                                          can be seen in 3d max (alt-W)

                                          then we learn how to draw plane in 3d max also. 

                                          Also, plan can be edited in moving the edges, plane,

                                          point and others.
