MClass Sep2012-01 – “Maxscript for the Artist” by Joe Gunn
Maxscript for the Artist
Description:
If your an artist that doesn’t have time to be a code monkey nor the desire to fiddle with scripting but would like to know the basics, then this class is for you. I understand as an artist that I often don’t need to know the why or how, but just what to do to make it happen. This class is designed for the artist that wants to be able to do a little bit of scripting without having to know or care what’s happening under the hood. It is for the artist who wants to be able to do a few things faster by using scripting methods that are easy to implement and understand without getting bogged down by the coding nerd talk.
