Maya vs. Max

One Hundred Eighty Second Post: Maya vs. Max

Well it is always confusing shopping for Alias’s software. I haven’t ordered anything. But you can get the learning addition free. It seems like the product can do a lot it just needs so many software packages for different areas such as architecture, design, games, film, and web graphics. 3DS Max is a bit more versatile than Maya, but it has the same fault when it comes to plugins. They are too expensive and numerous.

But I recently learned from the forums on www.3dbuzz.com that Autodesk the company that produces Max has purchased Alias. Now that is one way to boast revenue by owning two of the biggest names in 3D graphics. We can expect some changes in 3D in the next few years.

I have been really working out lately. Trying to lose some weight. I was told to lift weights to build muscle to burn fat and calories. My workout is lifting weights about 4 times a week alternating muscle groups. I take a pair of ten pound dumbbells and lift until muscle failure. The complete workout only takes about 10 to 15 minutes. You don’t have to lift heavy weight. Just do exercises like pushups to muscle failure and your done.

But until the Steeler beat the Colts on Monday night.... May the Creative Force and Holiday Spirit be with You
