GMAX BIBLE,,,And

I've been considering buying the Gmax Bible. While browsing the net, I found also the "Gmax Handbook"

What are the differences? Same, just a reprint?
Does it benefit me to get both?

Yes/No, what shall I do? :kilroy:
 
Some day I may take a crack at gmax... so I bought the gmax Bible, over 800 pages with bonus cd that has the book in pdf format. I have not used this book, so not sure if it's worth it or not.

2 inches thick and interesting to note is MAAM's B-25 and C-47 are pictured in the book.

I have the GMAX bible, 5 bucks on amazon with the PDF on CD included, never opened either once....

If what you want to do is 'learn' GMAX then get it, but I think you would learn more by just hanging around the FSdev forums and reading reading reading
 
When I was actively working with Gmax I used the Gmax Bible. It was quite useful as a reference. For getting started the tutorials provided in Gmax were my starting point and quite useful.
 
When I was using GMAX I bought the GMAX Bible and I found it ver useful indeed. I didn't so much "learn" from it, but it was an essential reference I used all the time. I now use 3DS Max instead and have similar books for that too.
 
Get this:

It´s clear, concise and to the point..and it´s also free...
Highly recommended

Best regards

This particular tut, I referred to it as, was pointed out to me several instances over at FSDeveloper for one situation or another during my earliest learning stages. I never did read into it in depth to see what was inside. Your pointing it out to me (and my browsing through it again) covers several instances I've asked questions about numerous times while getting to the stage I'm at currently.

Creating that took a great amount of time.

For the time I'll put off the purchase.
Thanks for pointing this out to me.

Aha!

If you follow that link you'll find a link on the page to a zip file of the tut. Click on it and you get the full tut, pictures and all!
