| 7 | VideoNew 'MentalBoutMax Roundup' Audio Newscast | Hello guys & gals, Todays posting is a departure from the series of videos we have been posting up over the past few weeks (as you have no doubt noticed!!) because we want to bring you the first Episode of our new 'MentalBoutMax Roundup'. Download it, give it a listen, and then give us your feedback on how we can produce this little show so as to be of REAL use to the 3ds Max community in general, and maybe also what you think our RoundUp might be able to do for you. DOWNLOAD Here and enjoy! *Breaking News* In typical fashion, after getting our little newscast recorded, edited and uploaded, e-0n software go and update their PLE version of Vue to 8.5 and so make little liars out of our poor, under pressure, over worked research team! (Namely me) So please ignore any statement in this MBM roundup regarding the current version of the Vue PLE. *End of Breaking News* Bri *NOTE* - Mp3 file has been swapped for an audio only .Mov | 6/2/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
| 8 | VideoMore on the MBM Upgrade! | Hey Guys, As promised here is Part 3 of the Ongoing Free series of videos outlining some quick (ish) methods for creating Roughcast and Pebbledash surfaces in 3ds Max. Youtube Version: As always you can grab the Hi Rez Quicktime HERE! (Right Click & 'Save As') We also mentioned in our last post that there were other benefits that will come to customers from our use of a Full E Commerce shopping system! Well, something that we hope will be a BIG plus with our customers is the integration of a ‘Rewards Point’ system that will allow customers to accrue Reward Points based on the Monetary value of purchases made in the MBM Shop. The system will allow the redemption of those points as either a ‘money off future purchases’ service, or if enough points are accrued, you can use them to make an outright purchase inside the MBM shop. Hopefully you will agree that this feature means we are adding even more value to the purchase of your MBM Training Materials. | 5/26/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
| 9 | VideoNew MBM | Hey Guys, Why, you may be asking, are changes being made with regard to the 3ds Max Training produced by the team here at Mental Bout Max? Well, that is a question that has a few different answers to it. Over the course of our next few Blog entries we will try to cover some of the rationale behind the changes being made, AND highlight the Ongoing Benefits that we hope will come to YOU the customer. Reason Number One: Probably the ‘Major’ reason for the changes that are currently underway at MBM has been the ‘need’ (that has been niggling away at the team for a while now!) to incorporate a number of things that customers have been enquiring about and making them an integral part of the MBM Training ‘experience’. A BIG request that has come our way, has been for the MBM team to provide some FREE Training Material for Max users to get their hands on that though obviously different to our ‘Paid for’ modules, still enjoyed the same High Quality Content and Production Values enjoyed in the aforementioned MBM Training Modules. Well, we have taken that request on board, and in the not too distant future we are looking forward to showing you what we have cooked up in that area! Which, naturally, we think you may quite like. Until such time as we have that up and running though, I would like to present to you what will be the first of a whole series of FREE Training Videos that we will be releasing over the next few weeks, and that when collected together constitute a full MBM 3ds Max Module that has been previously unavailable to the general public up until this point! :) There is of course much more to tell regarding our MBM Upgrade, but in the interest of short Blog posting and of course, good ’suspense’ building, we will hold off on giving you any more info on that until our next Blog post. Until then, Stay Well, Stay Tuned, and Bye For Now. Bri and the MBM Team RoughCast & Pebbledash techniques Part 1 Link to Hi rez Quicktime. | 4/30/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
