New Features

The pages in this section list all significant new features, but do not include every change in 3ds Max. As you proceed through the documentation, keep an eye out for the icon, indicating a new feature, and the icon, indicating a change to an existing feature.

You can also search for information about new or changed features. For topics that describe new program features, search for "new feature". For changes in existing features, search for "changed feature".

Embedded Videos

Tip: The 3ds Max help features a number of short, embedded how-to videos, or viewlets. When you open a topic that contains a viewlet, there's a brief delay, while the video loads, before the page appears. If you encounter this, be sure to check out the viewlets in the topic for extra help in learning the software.
