Its hardly the first full CG movie created with 3ds max. I Believe Kaena was the first done in max 2.5 through 3. THere have 3 or 4 others since then.

The news item says that they are in post production on THEIR first CGI feature film, not THE first CGI feature film made with 3ds Max.

be a little encouraging. As far as max is concerned the short rockfish by blur studios is just as good as final fantasy: the movie.about this movie, it was definitely made in a small amount of time and they might not have used all their resources on it.it’s ok! though and guys be encouraging.they used max 100% to make it besides compositing software.
