The Displace modifier in 3ds Max acts as a force field to push and reshape an object’s geometry. You can apply its variable force directly from the modifier gizmo, or from a bitmapped image. The 3D Studio Max displace modifier works on Shapes, Meshes, Polys, Patches, NURBS. Displace is often used to make terrains or to add finer texture to 3D models with out having to model in extra texture. It can also be used in a very controlled way to manipulate geometries. With the use of procedural text...
This Revit Architecture 2009 video tutorial covers how to use conditional statement when scheduling curtain panels. The techniques put forward in this intermediate Revit tutorial are done in an effort to avoid making different families for one curtain system. By using techniques like these, one can manage variable parts within one Revit Family while making it easier ti manage a schedule. This video is part of a series David Fano is working on, in which he hopes to show ways Revit can be used ...
This intermediate level CAD software tutorial gets into the basics of creating shared parameters in Revit and how to create schedules to access them. In this Revit tutorial scheduling is meant to be used more as a spreadsheet interface for driving the model and not so much for putting schedules in a drawings set. That being said this video covers the basics of making a schedule in Revit which one could easily then place on a sheet.
Comedic magician David Zanthor teaches you how to throw a playing card through a window. You will need a deck of cards, two duplicates, wax, a window, some passers-by and an assistant. Stop someone in the street. Shuffle the cards. Riffle. Allow participant to pick a card. Allow them to place it back in the deck anywhere. Look through them to find the card. It has disappeared! Throw the deck at a nearby window and their card has magically appeared on the other side of the glass! Simple? Throw...

In this UEFA Training Ground tutorial, Woody, Kleiny, and Lianne Sanderson teach you the drive pass, a very long-distance kick that drives the ball quickly for a long distance. It's similar to the lofted pass, but you kick the ball on the nose instead. Hitting the nose straight on with your foot, you attain supersonic power and make the soccer ball go faster.

The technique shown in this 3ds Max tutorial is meant to be a design modeling technique. Watch and learn how to model the Beijing Olympic Stadium in 3D Studio Max.
This is a 3ds Max tutorial that David Fano has tuned into a video from a PDF written by Theo Calvin and Omer Barr. Using wire parameters and expression controllers in 3D Studio Max we will make a panel that opens and closes based on the distance of a point. Learn how to model in 3ds Max with wire parameters and expression controllers. It will help if you are already familiar with the 3ds Max interface for this tutorial. Create an expression driven panel in 3ds Max.
Have you ever had the problem where your grid lines will NOT show up in elevations?!?!?! This is of course after you have checked your VG settings and maximized 3D extents, still NOTHING! Chances are the elevation view is not perpendicular to the grid lines. In most cases this makes sense, how is Revit going to know where you want to intersect the infinite planes of the grid lines. In this Revit tutorial David Fano establishes the point of intersection as the point where the site boundary and...
Revit Architecture 2009 is out and has some pretty cool new features. The first one David Fano talks about is Sweep Blend. Imagine taking the blend tool and combining it with the sweep tool. It’s pretty much just that. Like in the blend you pick to shapes “profiles” to blend between except now you can o it along a path. You could easily experiment with surface continuity by importing 3D curves from Rhino but for now this video covers the basics of how the sweep blend feature in Revit Architec...
This CAD software tutorial covers how to use reference lines to constrain or drive radial shapes in Revit Architecture. This can be tricky when using Reference plane but with a reference line it is quite easy. David doesn't get too much into adding parameters but one could imagine using a length parameter to drive the length of the reference line as well as the ellipse. Watch and learn how to model and control radial shapes with reference lines in Revit Architecture. Use reference lines to co...
