Create a Camera Walkthrough

  1. On the Animation menu, choose Walkthrough Assistant.

    The Walkthrough Assistant floater is displayed.

  2. On the Main Controls rollout, click the Create New Camera button.

    3ds Max creates a free camera named Walkthrough_Cam01, and displays the new camera in the viewports. The camera is also listed by name in the Cameras list.

    If the camera is not visible in a viewport, you might need to zoom out to see it.

    Additional rollouts are also displayed in the floater.

    Note: You can use the Modify panel to give the camera a more descriptive name.
