Could I Create this Content With MAX?

Hi Everyone,

I really want to recreate this effect;

At 0.03 seconds you can see how the video is laid out, it shows a front, back and side view.

Could i create something in Max and the set it out so it would work in this format?

Any input is appreciated!

Regards,

Oli.

You wouldn't output to separate screens but combine the different views in one window.

hi thanks for the replays,

@dtr this is a little beyond where i am at but it could prove useful later so thanks!!

@tobiasros this is perfect and set out great so i can see what going on! I am really new to this side of things but if i want to make something like this myself what would i need to do? am I right in thinking this is a 3d model and 4 different view points are being displayed?
what did you use to create the animation?

Oli

the animation is the seymour.dae file from the max-media folder, it is imported into a jit.gl.model object. you can generate your own dae files with software such as Blender, 3dmax, maya etc...
The patch shows one render context, where the 3d-model is in the center of the scene (position 0 0 0) and where four cameras (jit.gl.camera) are around it, all pointing towards the center (where the Seymour is located). instead of one (or more) 3d-model(s) one could use any 3d-scene / objects, don't has to be 3d-model-animations generated with 3d-Software could also be jit.gl.text3d objects, phys-objects or whatever.
the jit.gl.camera object have all the viewport attribute enabled (that means that they do not occupy the whole jit.window, but only a part of it), if you want to learn more about this feature there are some example patches in the max examples folder (camera or node.camera)
