I'm neither a student or a teacher nor a business owner; I wish they would let people who just want to goof off download it, instead of asking a bunch of personal questions.

3DS Max a couple of years ago: "I'mma just ask you a couple of questions and give you the free two year student trial."

3DS Max now: "You now have to provide proof of actual identification with a picture of your student id, that shows your actual name (Including your phone number!)"

At continue page, it stays blank and won't let me download.

I took two months to learn Adobe After Effects and Premier Pro. Now I am learning soft soft to make soft so I can have more verity

[Video-zooe]

In any colleges or only for those who are studying 3d max as part of their course?

[dhruvdeshpande]

It's asking me to verify my educationa institue and uploaing my college documetns. is this normal ? because in the video it doesnt show verifying and uploading documents aywhere

Not possible anymore since 2020 if you really arent a student. you have to proof with a confirmation of registration that you are student at a certain school. before that it was possible without it and endless usable, because usually you load a newer version within 3 years and after load the new version you can use it 3 years more and so on. Sad for e.g. workless ppl who are working on their portfolio. but gg autodesk, I will have a serious look at blender now.

Thanks for the hint, but what about Blender? This is a good software for any kind of 3D modeling, animation, compositing, rendering and it is completely for free.

[hugokist]

Doesn't work, I get the pop-up which says "this trial version is no longer available" But I did exactly what you did and I just made a new account, now I can choose between free trial and subscribe now

[BlueWolfZero]

Is it possible to do this without typing in any sensitive information?

[erdemsurenerdemsuren]

[ignasiussaputra]

unfortuntly my school option it wasnt there so i cant send my documentation to other school xD :(

Anything you make in a free version of 3ds max is owned by them.
If all assets are made in3ds, they kind of own whatever you made
Just.Get.Blender
Its better anyways

[shauntajohnson]

What is the equivalent software for mac users?

[SSG_Ronnie]

And for people who graduated years ago....completely useless. Probably best to stick with Blender that I can use 'forever' plus Blender is less demanding than 3ds Max. Even after University....game design is always a learning curve to keep improving, many people love 3d modelling as a 'hobby' so 3dsMax won't work for them.

[hax-dev]

This is ok for learning but you're better in the long run using blender so you can use your models commercially.

Man, I just wanna make a damn Sonic Generations mod.
