Gmax

[Kodakk]

Ok, i used to model
but haven't done it in ages.
I recently downloaded gmax, but to model players/vehicles should i use gmax or another program? I'm looking for free programs, but if gmax really really isn't the way to go, I'd like other suggestions.
If there is a better free modeling software could you send a link also, and if gmax is the way to go, does anybody have any good starter tutorials?
thanks!

Re: Gmax

If you use a unknow program many people can't help much if you have a problem and if you are looking to model player's then gmax is definitly not the way to go many tools you need arn't there. If you are just learning to model stick with gmax. I have a list of free software but I wouldn't know how to import it into bf2 unless I moved it to 3dsmax first.

Re: Gmax

^^^ lol exactly. everyone pipes on about maya - but at the end of the day 3ds is really the mainstream and thus support is greatest.
