Dose anyone know how to make a lightning effect in 3D studio max 2010?
I've been searching on google with no luck.
There are some for the older version of 3D studio max.

Also I'm trying to make it so that the lightning is shocking all around a sphear.

If anyone knows how to do this or can give me a link to a site that has this kind of information, then please let me know.

Thank you.

I finally figured out how to get the model viewer data into 3D software for rendering. Here's my first attempt at rendering/compositing FFXI.

did you model that yourself or rip it? I have been messing with a XIV model viewer, its weird how they've setup their dats this time around, the dat files themself are quite similar but they use a table id referense. You should use a fall off for your lighting and then just have controlled shadows to reduce the number of shadows.

This thread was an amazing help to me back when I first learned how to do renders for FFXI and I return here for help once more. I did some great website images from renders for FFXI and want to do the same for WoW. I'm having difficulty transferring from WoW's model viewer into 3DS MAX because none of the skins seem to transfer over and all I'm left with are blocky models. Blargh. I know its a bit off topic but maybe someone out there knows a good guide or can at least point me in the right direction to get this thing working.

On a side note... FFXIV looks beautiful! At least on my friend's computer. Might be time to upgrade mine again... sigh.
