Stomped gets the lowdown on gMAX
Last week, we mentioned an upcoming product called 3d studio gMAX, a 3D modelling program that Discreet (makers of 3d studio max) plan to distribute free to modmaking communities. Thanks again to Picky, who noticed that Stomped interviewed a Discreet exec about gMAX at QuakeCon earlier this month, and quite a bit more info about the program and its distribution was made known. It'll likely be available next spring (which means the Halo team will have plenty of time to create a Game Pack for it, if they so choose), and Discreet hopes it will both invigorate the already thriving mod community and create sales for gMAX's big brother, 3d studio max. Check out the interview! (Louis Wu 18:23:52 UTC) (permalink)
Matt says Enough
People are still whining about Bungie selling out to Microsoft, and for the most part, Bungie is still being good-natured about it. Every once in a while, though, they feel the need to respond to a particularly egregious attack. This attack was made on the Rampancy.net forum a couple of days ago... and after a rather large number of fan responses, Matt weighed in with a very nicely written (but slightly bitter) response, here. Max followed up with another, um... serious post. Or not. The whole thread is worth a read... in between the (NT) posts, there's some good reasoning. (Louis Wu 12:49:24 UTC) (permalink)
