3D Studio Max

[Gringle]

Well now, this time I'll try and start a topic that won't have people calling me a terrorist and making the sign of the cross in a display of my irrevrance (see Ah...now doesn't that feel better? if you have no clue what I'm talking about). Anyway, here's the question. I have 3D Studio Max, which, I did not warez. My friend actually bought it and pirated a copy for me. Anyway, I had these visions of creating phat guns and stuff for UT and all that. Well, I opened 3DSM and, well...I made a pink box. So if anyone has a tutorial on how to create a simple pistol (or if you just want to walk me through it yourself), please post here to let me know. Thanks guys.

Lightwave is king for low-poly modelling.
Oh, and if you get a working vers above 5.5 lemme know.

Ah. Well if you had an...ahem...location in which one could theoretically obtain Lightwave 6 (my first choice after seeing that thread where people were making models), then I would...ah...appreciate that. /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

Don't feel to bad Gringle, that's about the equivalent of what I can do with UED. I made a red wireframe cube once, but that might just be the default thing that pops up when you make a new map.

One time I made a map and when I went to load it I got all sorts of bizarre errors.
