G'day Andrew/Ross,
To answer your questions one at a time..
>>Is MAX NT?
1.Yes MAX is a native NT application
>>Info on MAX
2. Do a search in the Libraries here on the keyword MAX to get all of Autodesks
press releases/ Info on the product
>> Didn't understand the question but..
3. MAX is I believe Heavily multithreaded
>> Is the Interface better
4. The interface is VERY Windows, and MUCH much better, with everything at your
fingertips.
>>OPENGL??
5. MAX uses a faster graphics system than OPENGL I believe called Heidi!
>> Multiprocessor??
6. Max does make great use of dual Pentium machines, and throw in a GLiNT board
for incredible real time performance when modelling, real time previewing or
just working in Rendered mode all the time.
>> Beta Program?
7. Contact Autodesk in your Country if you wish to be an Autodesk Beta site for
any Autodesk products, but previous 'true' beta test experience is a must, so
apply and try your luck!
I saw MAX at Siggraph and it truly stole the show, the above answers are from
what I remember being shown at Siggraph, and could of course be entirely wrong
🙂
Check out the press releases here, as well as the screenshots for the full
story…
