I use both, but I'm gonna tell u. Blender is so quick.. I have super speed in blender.
Bro can you teach me please 😭
I'm right there with you. 15 years using Max and I thought I was lighting fast already, and then I started using blender a year ago. And boom! I'm enjoying creating 3D art pieces again... Max is has a very slow UI, gotta wait for each render to start and finish, Vray is slow too.. but in blender, switching between editing modes, shading on viewport, eevee and cycles and gpu.. and everything works fast and smooth. It makes 3D enjoyable again!
Blender renders models in segments. Which makes it more efficient and thus faster
EG best example blender fluid dynamics
@@lukaz2040 hello
Blender is soft of new generation, blender is the best soft.
I really just wanted a basic comparison of these two softwares and this video felt like a very reasonable presentation of that. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
thanks inspiration Tut, please continue providing great content
Is it which is better or which gets the job done? At the end of the day that's all that really matters. Which tool makes it possible to get the job done efficiently.
Thank you so much it was really helpful 👍
Yep....very Useful & Informative...Love your Videos
I used max professionally for years. Even tho edit poly is really missed I find blender much more flexible, especially as I'm into mostly hard surface modeling with booleans.
Hi, would you say that for 3d printing less complex models 3dsmax is better. I had a much easier time learning it back in the day, blender was a high wall. If you see this comment and can reply, thanks
@@rafaelanim8 😊
you forgot to say: this video is sponsored by blender
😂😂
Max had no modelling improvements....Just in the last 3 years that come to my mind:
-Data channel modifier for vertex/edges/polys lowlevel manipulation.
-More than 6 spline tools and modifiers recreated from scratch.
-Max creation graph: Advanced nodal interface to create custom modifiers.
-Improvements on performance on editpoly.
-weighted normals.
-chamfer modifer! (how you dare to forget chamfer modifier! :))
If you compare it with blender modelling tools (that are also great), some max advantadges:
-10x faster performance on edit poly on heavy meshes.
-10x faster performance on parametric modifiers.
-OpenSubdivs and crease sets that are actually usable.
-Edit poly as modifier (this one alone is huge).
-none destructive primitives.
"Edit poly as modifier" in blender ?
@@666Azmodan666 No, Max has this. He wrote it as advantage from Max to Blender. And the with the advantages he is right. Blender need a huge upgrade in handle large polymesh objects. And the way that Maxs modifer stack works is in my opinion also better, even i think the modeling itself is in Blender faster.
Well, polygonal modeling is very good in Blender but Max has very powerful spline which is very useful in some cases.
weighted normals in max? which version? PLease tell me more :D

can you see the other side through the seam? or is that just specular..???
I have used both. I could make a long list of reasons why I prefer Blender to 3Ds Max, mentioning only a few redeeming features of the latter, but I guess you could argue that most of it boils down to personal preference and professional demands. However, there IS one reason why Blender can be considered objectively better: Boot speed.
Software hardly crashes anymore these days, but 3D software remains an exception to that because of what it allows you to do (or try). With Blender you'll be right back into your scene within seconds. Not having to look at a loading screen for a whole minute can make a huge difference.
Whar ever app you're using.
Skill is the important one
I can't agree more!
And there's no app to give you artistic skills.
@@TheJovialBrit and how's the life goin
Agreed
No - any artistic skill can not win constant glitches and crashes. Same about obsolete workflow - when you must open too many excess menus and tabs. Or you simply can not find desired function in settings - when you just want assign a hotkey
Being an indie game developer candidate nowadays. I was doing my research on such tools. I've used blender earlier and wanted to take some experince on 3ds max but the only thing kept me out is its pricing tbh.
I have really decided am going to sink my learning curve into blender...
looks like it has a more promising future
I love max, is my first love until I grew up and I had to pay that license, and vray, then blender came getting better with the interface an it was insta love. Blender had become a monster (in the best awesome way) now I can get the results I got with max and vray in no time, I work mostly architecturural scenes, the only thing I gotta fix is the tree models and I'm good to get "perfection" but I'm happy very very happy
Hi I am an architecture student, may I know where to get some good tutorial about blender for architecture?
Lol if you think cycles can provide the same results as corona then you’re a horrible artist or changed the cycles script from scratch
@@mrfeathers3938 what exact results? If not cycles you can use renderman, redshift and v ray to name a few so shut up
@@jiejie5248 hii
@@mrfeathers3938 what's wrong with cycles?
The amount of shortcut keys in blender makes working in it so fast that I hate when I have to work on other softwares
I just want to learn modeling, that can be ported into other game (i love to learn and modding things)
which one is better and easier to learn ? which one is more used to gaming industry such unreal engine or unity ?
im not into learning animation and visual effect
Finally, user skills makes great any software.
Fethi is right.
It's like if you're a music producer. You can be daft punk, but if you use something like garage band as apposed to FL studio or Ableton, you're gonna be making ringtones and jingles at best.

@@stuck_in3D there is people doing amazing stuff with poor software tools, the trick is not be software-dependent, because with your logic Pixar could never have done something.

Very good vid earned a sub
Hello and thank you very much for your contribution. It's the other way round for me, I'm doing well in 3ds max, but I've been looking into Blender and thinking about learning it professionally, because out of the box you really get a great software for little (free?) money. Again and again I find myself jumping back to 3ds max because I know exactly how to quickly achieve this or that. Through friends I often got the feeling that I was working with an outdated software and that Blender is now "the thing". Now I don't have a bad feeling about continuing to work with Max, I will still play with Blender when I have time. Thanks for the video.
Just tried Blender recently, after 200K poly Blenders sub object selection slows down, after million ploy selection and navigation in sub object levels slows down considerably to around 3-6 seconds, undo is another show stopper. Meanwhile 3ds Max chugs on even with 25 million poly. Keep in mind this on a 2070 RTX, 3800X.
Hi, even I started out with cinema 4d and had the same issue with your I did good with cinema 4d before then I switched to blender completely and I learnt many things in a short time
don't learn blender. in year or 2 hype dies down, and so is blender. but if you instlled it - your computer is already in blenders botnet, and you credit card info is in their hands too,
EDIT: I was drunk when writing this comment. Blender doesn't have a botnet and doesn't steal people`s money (yet), but there are proofs it could/still can break your computer\fry your videocard alongside your motherboard. There also have been more and more developers popping up, saying Blender, an open source progamm, has bits and pieces of their code. Make of it what you wish - i warned you.
@@stefansemaforov1934 Lmao how much is autodesk paying you?
@@stefansemaforov1934 The source code is open. You can't just apply a nihilistic viewpoint to everyone around you. YOU have NPD. 90% of the world doesn't even understand the way you think. My emphasis on "you" is that everyone else in the room... we're here for empathetic reasons. Making cool stuff. Helping people. I'm making a big assumption here, honestly, but when you find someone that instantly assumes someone is out to get them, you've spotted the NPD.
It's not a bad thing, if you learn how to interact, and that you're different from other people. Just don't run around applying it to everything when you're in the small percent of the population that has this brain thing that chemically doesn't exist in most people.
I firmly believe, if you can find a reason to understand this condition, and how it's still beneficial for you to help everyone and not become a typical narc, that you can synergistically benefit yourself and everyone around you.
For anyone observing this conversation and wondering wtf I'm talking about, go run around the sales team at your company. You need those people to keep your paychecks coming. They need you as well, or they wouldn't be able to boast and sell stuff to buy things to look better than the salesman next to them.
I'm not saying all salespeople are narcs. Just, it's a very common thing. Once you recognize it, you will begin to become more aware of who's around you and if they have ulterior motives.
Again, most people don't. Only 10% of the population is claimed to have this brain chemical whatnots that causes them to fuck everyone else to get simple brownie points. Try not to hate them, as they are wired to do that. But if you wanna manipulate them into benefiting everyone, go right ahead. They don't understand empathy, so use it to run around them in circles.
I'm not a narc, but I've trained myself to interact in ways to reduce a destructive outcome
In my story, I used 3D Max for about 4 years of self-learning, but when I got Blender turns out my skills dramatically increased. Reasons are,
1. I used Vray in 3D Max and waited for a couple of minutes to render a photorealistic model but in Blender real-time render and powerful node system including texture paint.
2. 3D max is heavy and not a lot user-friendly comparing to Blender, Blender doesn't look user-friendly at the start but get used to it you'll find yourself saving more time using shortcuts than you ever did in 3D max.
Cons
Don't push blender too far with low specs it'll crash and close, 3D Max will try to hold but ultimately freeze
*Get Blender it's free and only a couple of Megabytes but so powerful even without plugins, take time to get through the interface. You'll love it.*
Blender might crash, but at least you can always restore your work! (and save)
blender is the best tool for me. I started blender on 9th october 2021. Now I Sculpted a realastic human face.
what specs pc do you run it on ?
Blender isn't user friendly. 😆😆
@@raipriyam4359 mine is nvidia gtx 1650, 16 gb ram and core i7
im new to these 3d tools and i've used 3DS Max in the past and loved it, but i dont want to use a pirated version of this software im gonna try blender but i have any problems with blenders, i use to love 2.48 shortcuts since they changed i cant use it anymore, need to get used again
Everybody gangsta until Blender announces the new version.. :) I mean jokes aside, even though Blender is not very beginner friendly or has some disadvantages like lack of interoperability with other softwares in industry, it's still as powerful as others in most ways. And i think these lacks wont matter in next few years(the most). Because both the community and software are growing so fast. And i don't even need to mention but... It's f*cking FREE!!
It’s not Blender that has the interoperability problem. Remember that it supports just about every open standard format available, including a few not handled well by the proprietary apps.
@Zineddine and how big it is you are saying? Last time i made a scenery with 60m polygons it ran good with 2.83 even had 1m tree particles at the side since i was making a procedural nature with apocalypse environment the GPU i am using is an RTX titan tho
Well said 😎

hello all ...please what is the best channel to learn VFX in blender???
Not worth comparing from great creations such as blender or 3dmax, I like both
This is such a helpful video.
For those who don't know blender has Vray now. You can install vray in blender.
how?
This seems very similar to what's going on in the audio/music recording and production world. There are great newer tools that far outdo the older tools, but the older tools (protools) are "heritage" and are what have been integrated into the big houses for decades, even being MUCH clunkier, less capable, and packed with antiquated code.
please tell me what are the features we need to install blender in pc?
I've been doing classes for modelling , but they were using only max , anyway next week I'm done with the classes for good, I've been doing modelling for 6 months but nothing too crazy it was like 4-5hrs per week, lately I'm being super seriously digging and looking for things , and today I finally decided to download blender , thus far I've only made it donut , from a tutorial because I need to learn the program. First of all it's looking cleaner than 3ds Max rendering wise . But I might be wrong . But from that 6 hours I've used blender one thing that stood out for me was that it has scalping . The thing is freaking awesome , I wish 3DS max had scalping as well
Is it better to learn 3D animation on your own via tutorials and online classes or at an University?
Universities are expensive. If you are not sure, try learning online. If you then find the need for formal education, definitely go for it! But first, before spending tons of money on that, experiment with Blender and see if it really is what you want to do as a career.
as a guy who uses max since its first version and an expert of both max and blender in terms of environment and product design, more I read your comments more I feel like most of you guys totally have no experience on max or the time you spent using max was a waste.
Which is a better rifle? Remington 30-06 OR Winchester 30-06?
great comparison!
Nice video!!!thanks
hello, i am looking for a computer that allow me to model and skin chacters at 1000 samples in real time and also allow me to render 8k animation footage at 60 fps while processing lighting instantly...
thanks
(if you are not from 2047, please ignore the question)
I started with Autodesk animator and 3d studio in the late 80s/ early 90s. Blender started off slow but has really come into it's own. But the difference for me is the scalability with available plugins. I've made a lot of money over the years with Max. If I switched to Blender today, I couldn't produce things I was able to with Max and plugins.
x doubt
How Much Money?
3d max users make WAY more than blender users, 3d max users design things for like companies while on the other hand blender users model things for games and other stuff

Command Panel > Modify > Editable Mesh/Editable Poly > Sub-object: Elements button, what is the alternative inside blender
True. I am on 3ds Max since 1994...3D studio 1.0 for MsDOS. I dropped learning blender after I could not go back to my original model after a couple of edits.
i just read almost all of the comments,,
let me tell u guys a secrete, i was using max for almost 15 years, but i switched to blender, and why is that?
1: max is paid, and what they did in last 5 years? still trying to fix the chamfer modifier?
2: max is heavy,, i mean its big,, so big, i found that max 2021 is almost 8GB
3: it runs only on windows
4: without some plugin, i feel max is nothing
5: Blender is free
6: Blender is small
7: Blender easy to learn, it took just one week for me to learn blender
8: Blender is easy to use with shortcuts, do u know how easy to add a shortcut in blender??!! just right click and add
9: Blender runs on windows, mac, linux
10: in Blender u can sculpt, Compositing, Sequence edit, 3D Camera tracking, modelling, 3D Animate, 2D Animate, rigging, u can u even sketch, and real time rendering
11: its getting better so fast
12: Eevee, i mean we can't even talk about it, comparing with the biggest software company in the world

@@DingXiaoke Absolutely ! I'm a max user and oh boy do I love when I type absolutely anything with the words 3dsmax on internet and all I can find is some 7yo 4:3 video with a crappy mic, a nice dishwasher running in the background, 10FPS and 1 chances out of 2 it's not what I'm looking for or it is a demo of what he did !
It's really hard to learn a software with tons of bugs and missing features when you're all alone, didn't have such problem on Blender.
@Zineddine agree with u, but its changing, so many max users switching to blender, we know that,
Archviz and game industry?? lets see about it.... maybe in 3 years!!
Zineddine agree with you, but also disagree. It’s an old dogma. This day, more and more studios switching to blender. Take Ubisoft, why do you think their cinematic division adapting it, also Tangent animation which is huge, I work in a relatively big animation studio and we also adapting blender, epic games mentions blender on quixel page, I know several indie game companies that using blender as their primary weapon of choice. A lot of freelance concept artists use blender since it’s fast has no problems handling ginormous scenes, and both cycles and especially eevee times faster than you can render with 3d’s native tools (I’m not talking about octane or redshift). It has its downsides, but they are so easy to overcome that you’ll do 10 iterations + fixes while waiting for 3ds to render 1 frame, while praying it not to crash.
Zineddine don’t get offended. I know how this industry works and I’m not saying blender will replace any giants (Houdini and Maya for sure). Arnold is an addon like everything else in 3ds. + it’s only trying to be gpu. I was just saying that blender becomes bigger than just underdog. It has huge potential. Tho I’m sorry, guess it was my misunderstanding on ubi part, however know for sure from people who work in game studio, that a lot of people there use blender, since it doesn’t harm the pipeline and they are pretty opened to allow using whatever for modeling as long as it’s installed by it and can export fbx.
I have used blender for 6 years know and i still use the software it Leaps and Bounds over mini other softwares
i use 3d max to create maps and export to fbx ... now trying the same in blender, but the texturing part is awful ... i need no uv unwrap just a simple image material apply and scale for my meshes, with default box projection ... in blender you have to put together more complex node based material to do the same, and they always end up no wrapping around the edges properly
So which is best overall
Question is not so much what you think but what companies use and expect you to master. If hoping for a job that is.
If i just want to render products, blender is my best option?
I use both and nothing can beat 3max on hardsuface modeling. Blender is good. For common items. But 3d max is too far superior for complex items.
Maybe u need to work on ur modeling skills a bit.. u rely too much on modifiers
No shit bro, that's why modifiers are there for. To make things more convenient.
You can use box cutter, hard ops and quad ramesher in blender for hard surface modeling those are paid add-ons btw.
that character at 2:05 where is it from?
3DS Max is as clear, convenient, simple and intuitive as possible - it looks like a square with a visible and understandable center located on a grid. Selecting an object and manipulating it or its sub-objects is pure pleasure!
blender is becoming more and more powerful ...
i think the most important thing is the person who is using a software before anything else
this only works to a certain extend.
"most important is the person using the wrench" if its a super rusty, half broken wrench, it drags down the persons skill.
@@xxerbexx neither Blender and 3D Max are bad, Threrefore the dude Is correct, the individual skill makes the difference.
I'm a Blender user and I really love the software. But now I have to learn 3ds max, required for my new job
@Joe Proulx thanks Joe, I did. But I'm new here and I still need to prove myself here. But I hope I can show the benefits of using Blender...
Can't understand how 3ds max can't be better for modeling than Blender when it has Edit Poly modifier, FFD modifiers, powerful Spline and NURBS, just to name a few. plus its poly pushing performance is just light years ahead of Blender.
True to that, but the "poly pushing" award would be going to blender, Nudging stuff around using sculpt mode is priceless.
As you said, Blender seems to hate High poly in edit mode though yet it handles them fine in sculpt mode.
I bet it would get better (it already have quadrupled in performance in the last 3 years)
@@HAWXLEADER I respectfully disagree, you are comparing two workflows that are used for different purposes, check out Changsoo Eun's 250 million poly manipulation in 3ds max 2018, as good as Blender it still has a long way to go in poly performance.
Blender has lattices, an ok spline tool, and good luck keeping performance with 10 edit poly modifiers. Plus you have to look at addons like Hard ops or boxcutter, vanilla max doesn't even have regularizer. And to be honest, Blender's method of shortcuts is a hugely faster method of modeling than the infinite amount of menus you have to access in 3Ds max to do basic things. Just the ability to be able to go from hard surface to scuplting or vice versa is invaluable, plus the ability to both texture and render all in one software. Blender is constantly being developed, and it seems Max hinges on it's non-destructive workflow to remain relevant on the market.
I'm pretty much in the same boat as those 3Ds Max users who has yet to afford an indie subscription and is transitioning to Blender for the time being. It could've been me being bias but there are things I noticed Blender lacks that make me want to use 3Ds Max. For example, there are some shading areas that need to be fixed, although there are ways to fix shading one of them is by editing the normals, 3Ds Max gives more control via their Edit Normals modifier by choosing a single normal from a vertex with split normals and affect only that normal, Blender on the other hand you have to affect all split normals on a single vertex. Another one is deformation, in 3Ds Max you can have 100% control on the outmost vertices on the corners of the cube with the modifier FFD Box; whereas in Blender you create your cube and then you create a lattice the exact same size of the cube, put the lattice modifier onto the cube, but when you drag the vertices of the lattice the corresponding vertices of the cube doesn't follow 100%; honestly I could go on but 3Ds Max has tons more modifiers than Blender and personally I find 3Ds Max to have better non-destructive options than Blender.
@@DexterBacchus-tb4ui thing is as a hard surface modeller I find 3ds max to provide better tools, sure Blender can serve as a Swiss army knife in every 3d aspect be it hard surface modelling, character design, animation but as a hard surface modeller who wants to get into the game industry 3ds max just has the tools I mostly need for that aspect and to practice an industry standard software would better prepare me for that.
Is blender good for architecture ? Like rendering exterior.
Yeah , use cycles for rendering it is the best in the world
Better one is one have larger population in future. I use 3dsmax,but I think Blender will take over sake of running cost by each studios.
My question is what’ll rockstar use/ is using for gta 6 & gta 7 (or whatever rockstar decides to call gta 7. Gta Britain?)
I see you're mentioning CAT. It's really awesome!
But I had no idea blender allowed sculpting,this is awesome too!
I guess the answer is to use both
The problem is there isn’t enough architectural tutorials on blender im struggling with finding even architectural courses on it 😞
3ds max is best polygon modeling tool on the market.
And what about Autodesk Maya?
I like Blender, but it has such a complicated way to deal with smoothing groups. In 3ds Max it's: Hey, just click on the faces that you want to have a special group and that's it. In Blender you need to click years through your model and seperate every smoothing group with edge select and tell him to do seems and so on. It's really annoying and time intensive.
I love Blender, but it has some stuff that could be so much easier.
Psst. Use Hard ops.
@@MeshVoid 100% this hard ops makes everything easier
@@Irrelavant__ I truly believe that, but that Add On costs around 19$. It's a good price, no question about it. But things like that should be already included in the 3d program itself.
@@TarnkappenToast You can easily manage smoothing by setting autosmooth to 180 and marking edges as sharp
@@jamesc2683 Jup, that was the workflow i just described. In 3ds Max you just select the faces that you want to have an own group and hit a button and in Blender you need to fiddle every edge out and mark it as sharp. I am doing it right now and it's one of the most annoying workflows ever. It could be so much less time consuming but it isn't.
i started using 3ds max version 2, in those days people used to compare it with maya. now its blender. It is difficult to switch over for me as I have life long relationship with it. But may be some day will marry blender
you may get by with learning autocad and focus on blender for visualising renders, Autocad is the big one if you just want drafting work
Thanks
Is blender use in vfx and gaming
industries in future ?
yes, its already used in a small capacity in some larger studios although nowhere near close to taking over for general usage.
for small VFX and indy game studios blender is often the goto modelling tool and animation editor / compositor.
Max also handles better modelling on curved surfaces because he has an extra face editing constrain. Also only until recently a set flow addon was finally made available by a guy for blender. You only know how much you missed them after you get to try them.
what would you recommend for Mac as a Max alternative? blender? revit? Maya?
@@zzrgio Maya ofc ? Autodesk started to have very good pace of improvements. Max and Maya started to share the deveopment. The new built in retopology tools and all the improvements that are either in max, in beta or for future plans in Max roadmap is way more impressive then what Blender small team can achieve.
Yes good info
When software becomes easily accessible to the masses, the labor market becomes increasingly competitive.
i used 3D max and autoCAD from 7 years. i have faced many difficulties both of them . main thing is if i have some software or licensed issues. you will be sorry. i already have spend more time issues with this softwares
I was glad to try Blender. Tried C4D free for a month. But the difference to me is that Blender is completely free and there are sooo many free tutorials on youtube...,"how do I ...";click..the answer's there. The fact is that for someone starting in CG, there's no substitute for all the info available for blender; it's invaluable. And Blender is pretty responsive; it does what it's supposed to do. Well, that's my perspective.
I really want to love blender, I've been trying to swap to it for the past couple of weeks after being a max artist for 17ish years. Sadly i am seeing, very clearly, why max and maya are still the industry standards.

I'm dead serious when it comes to modelling max is at least 10 years behind. God knows why this is still considered to be industry standard.
No offense, but it kinda sounds like Kermit the Frog is teaching me about modelling programs.

3ds max is my choice, awesome for game development
Is 3ds max better than blender for modeling game environments and assets?
@@AkimboFennec If you use Unity Blender is great, you simply click save on the blend file and you see the changes in game engine (great for fixing UVs and improving models on the fly)
Otherwise both will simply do FBX export and make ZERO difference.
The only things who miss on them is CAD modeling. Sometimes it's a faster start than primitive / freestyle.
could you elaborate your point
@@simonk.2969 He means parametric modeling in some cases produces faster results.(Inventor/Solidworks)
The closest you can get to this is typing in distances when you move/extrude stuff.
Also CAD Tools can get you the "relative to" constraints from CAD style modeling (Ex: put this face of this object 5 cm from the face of the other).
Theres a plugin for that.
WHAT IS IV?
if both are free, which is better?
Once blender can handle millions of vertices at once like zbrush can, oooohhhhh booyyyy
ZBrush doesn’t do true 3D, though. It’s more of a 2½D.
What do u mean
@@bigappleandbass9379 I've used zbrush and it's extremely well optimized in terms of sculpt
Zineddine No it‘s not. They use a patented technique called Pixols that essentially means working with Pixels that have additional information instead of actual 3D geometry. This is why Zbrush can run entirely on the CPU and handle this absurd amount of Polygons that other software like Blender can only dream of. It actually is not real 3D even if it looks like it.
@@NymezWoW it's not that unique after unrealEngine made something similar called NANITE. And unreal is source available so the algorithm is pretty much public. It's a matter of time Blender has something similar, though it will use some decent GPU compute, that's not a big problem due to growing power of eGPU s these days
I like your vids but u need to change up your video subjects they are getting quite repetitive maybe discuss the new features of softwares onstead
I disagree. His video topics are great, and many of these topics are Suggested by his very Subscribers. Maybe he'll listen to your suggestions and make a video on it. Trust me, it's a nice feeling.
@@csmemarketing I agree... Not with him but with you.
The topics of the videos are great. He is consistent.
I’m transitioning from 3ds Max to Blender because I simply can’t afford Max anymore. Aurodesk’s subscription plans are insane. They have abandoned the regular user focusing solely on the high income bracket. I held onto my student version of Max 2011 for as l could but at the end the program was so broken it was almost unusable.
That being said, Blender is great but Max is better. The ine thing that annoys me the most with Blender is the myriad of hotkeys you need to memorize. Max has hotkeys too, but there is ALWAYS a corresponding visual UI for each. Blender doesn’t have that, making some of the most basic features (that you took for granted in Max) ridiculously hard to access. You could go for years not knowing a feature even exists, unless you like to memorize pages and pages of hotkeys and their sometimes extremely vague descriptions in the Blender pdf. I know this because one of the most common sentences I read on Blender tutorials is ”wow I didn’t know you could do that!” - and that’s from users with years of experience. This is a complete failure by Blender devs.
So yeah I’m reluctantly getting into Blender, but I know that even when I have years of experience, I wouldgo back to Max in a heartbeat if given the chance.
This was two years ago, I am curious how you're feeling about it today? Do you still use Blender? Have you grown to like it more? Or have you switched back to 3ds Max?
This is a great question. I stand by what I said about some features being stupid difficult to access that you took for granted in 3dsMax.
But I was also frustrated, and was pretty much dragged out 3dsMax amd into Blender kicking and screaming. Now I use Blender daily, and it’s now part of my muscle memory same as Max was. I think I’d be rusty if I went back to Max now. I wouldn’t mind some streamlining, but there is no doubt that Blender is amazing and can do pretty much anything that Max can do for the price of… on the house. You just can’t beat that. It’s now part of my workflow. Max is out forever.
@@My2Cents1 Awesome thanks so much for explaining your experiences!
I'm more of a Max user. Easy to model with real object dimensions. I wish Blender does have the same exact feature, like changing the L x W x H as exact as it can be.
Bro you are asking a very lame question. LxWxH is very basic. Even sketchup could do it
what do you mean? I does work with real dimensions, quite better than max in my opinion
are max users drug addicts? actually max is way worse than blender with dimensions, considering how the scale tool fucks up the real dimensions listed by max lmao.
Blender already has what you are asking for and does it way better than max.
@@vowel8280 It means that once you created a primitive yo ucan't modify it's dimension changing it's cm or meters, but scaling, it's quite different, ence it's called "destructive" metod.
@@IllGib
If you make a primitive, sure they do not remain parametric, but you can still change their dimensions in real units, you have this under the scale
Good info.. thanks. Accent is an issue, but great content so ok
Blender or Cinema?
Realistically, which has more of a future? Remember Autodesk’s propensity for killing off such popular software as Softimage.
Your opinion is correct. The future of 3ds max is bright
Both 3Ds Max and Maya are used so heavily in various industry they won‘t go away any time soon. Both together are basicly the Industry Standard for everything, except maybe Houdini in VFX.
Softimage was also heavily used. Yet that didn’t stop Autodesk from killing it off.
@@lawrencedoliveiro9104 Instead, they offered another alternative.
If 3ds max or maya die, we will provide another alternative.
But still any company doesn't work in main important thing. we need next level rendering technology to render faster and realistic. we still have same old traditional slower rendering technology
try cycle
On of the big things the Blender developers must fix is the handling of big files. To work in Blender with displacementmaps is a pain. It took ages until the rendere has computed the picture and start to render. I installed the Blenderversion of Octane render and wow, the same scene, the same displacementmaps an the render starts three seconds after hit the renderbutton. And if you want to create a big enviromentscene with a lot of geometry, Blender is also not the best choice for that. Max or Maya have his disadvantages and may odschool, but they can handle a big amount of geo, and that is especially in the feature film branche a must have. The developers are implement a lot of new tools and toys, but they must also improve the core of Blender.
Octane is awesome especially with texture and vertex displacement but the node options are lacking big time and other functions, not to mention you can't really use any plugins. My biggest fear tho, is, what if I spend time creating a project in Octaneblender and it stops being free??
i think blender the best is old PC
I'm learning 3d and I'm using Blender, I hVE a friend who is learning 3d max in the university, I spoke with him if I should try to learn 3d max and he said that I should stay with Blender XD he hates max, from what I understand is a bit difficult and too much work sometimes.
I remember when my sister study 3d max too, and she said that a lot of the things you have to do manually in 3d max there usually a more easy way to do it in Blender, or at least, better shortcuts.
But overall, I don't know XD since I have never use it, AND I'm too new to this.
I have been playing with a few. The Octaneblender option is a good compromise on the rendering side of things. Blender render engine cannot compare to Arnold in max. On the other hand when you are using octane there are a lot of features missing, to get that photo realistic look. And how many on here are actually PAYING for 3ds max. I cannot be spending actual money on that. I can use a cracked version but not my style. Realistically. everyone is going to defend the one they know best. And professionals who work in a studio will normally have to use what they use, and just get used to it. Only freelancers can be choosy. But its true that Blender cannot handle lots of polygons, even on my good system. I get so worried when I throw big stuff in there. I have spent so much time learning blender sometimes wish I invested that time in another one, but price-wise, Max is out of my league. I went through the trial and tried some complex modelling and Blender can do a lot of it but when you know the software you come up with ways to make it work and keep SAVING the file like a mofo! before scene says bye bye.
I had this same feeling when I switched from cinema 4d to blender.
I am still trying to master blender
If there is anything where 3ds Max really shines, compared to other 3d Softwares, it is modeling. And saying that modeling improvements have not been made is simply not true. Ok, you are pushing Blender, and that is cool. But, give the credit where credit is due...It is like saying that Blender is better for motion graphics than C4D.
When your first learned software is 3ds max and blender is 2nd then it's very tough to choose one , I vote for both
@@renat_CIA blender supporters get paid too, also not all the money you give to max may go to developing max and a good portion might just go to ceo's of autodesk and believe me, there is no chance the max developers care about their software as much as blender developers and community do.
don lll Doesn‘t really matter, both Max and Maya have a dev team behind them thats multiple times the size of the Blender one. Without the financials of a company like Autodesk you simply can‘t compete.
@@NymezWoW Well it seems that they're competing and actually winning so... .
@@NymezWoW but they are...
As someone who works in both tools: Blender is a little boy trying to be his big sister Maya and big brother Max. Blender is young but growing fast. He can replace his brother and sister in near future.
Blender is trash!!!
i wanna be perofessional in blender its always my passion and dream to design characters and animation and other stufss .... but man after every tutorial and some practice i keep losing my focus .... damn
It happens in every art field..just take a break for few days, blender will automatically come back to you 😉
You'll get used to it if you keep at it, once you know a lot of it and don't need tutorials as often you'll start getting fast and comfortable with it
@@sayakbanerjee4592 terrible advice, it doesn't happen in every art field. If you don't have the focus to put in countless hours its the wrong field.
Don't think about doing anything professional if you don't have the focus. In that case its not made for you.
@@hirohikonishikawa4851 i have always been interested in comics art, fantasy worlds, characters... i used to draw lots of drawings as kid but while growing up I lost with the track but it never lose any interest tho.
I use photoshop illustrator programs and just want to go more deep by learning blender.
If you can’t give any suggestions or advice at least don’t put other people hope down by saying it’s not meant for you 🙏 thanks
the 3ds max value proportion has always been an issue for me and as blender improves it only gets worse. I’ve always felt that the best max features were its user developed plugins along with features ported from maya - It begs the question then; what are you paying for when you buy a seat for max? an ever more bloated install file and an ancient UI? Autodesk has no real incentive put resources into max when it’s made redundant by maya. I think max’s days are numbered
Also, Mentalray Replaced by iRay by the owner Nvidia
Hey thanks for sharing the thumbnail, wish you asked for it before tho, to give me some credits.
there is a link to your Artstation page. you have a fantastic Portfolio by the way.
To me, It's better what you're doing the best in.
5:52 Arnold? This needs some subtext, but the movie scenes are awesome
Blender got bright 🔆 future
5:25 movie name?
San Andreas movie
i think i that its the awful 2012 movie
Thanks for very good one, with enough good examples and comments/comparisons, and not done at 10X speed as many do.
About Blender: I keep banging into "doesn't work" problems trying to do basic things. Are terms slapped on the 10,000 or 100,000 functions too odd/mystical/cryptic, more than other such programs have? Is it not reasonable to look for flow, logical connections between functions and parts? It's a hive, with wasps and bees and hornets and flies and more, scattered all over, and of course, with attics and basements and outhouses. At my sadly low level, at least, Blender is a scattershot program of function names and connections, very difficult to get a grasp on after such easy ones as "Insert cylinder" or "insert background," etc.
I watched several surveys, and it seems that best hope at novice level is 3 DS, trying for flying scenes with pilots in helmets and in cockpits, and simple dia/monologues. Flying all over, landing, being shot at and hit. Realist approach, and simple enough to "get er done" promptly, not next year. What could possibley go wronf with thak!
