Learned a lot of things from this video. Thank you for making this tutorial. You are so talented.

This helps a lot for the 3ds max community. Although most famous movies use 3ds max, Maya, and Houdini, it's really hard to know the process from real professional. I just see this channel for the first time and hit LIKE & SUBSCRIBE button!!!

I love how the look of Rogue One inspired this Dune city look.

This project looks really amazing, and I've learned a lot, nice job!

Thats really awesome. Love to see how the professionals do it! :D I'd also love to see how you did the compositing.

Stef, This looks incredible!! Well done!

Amazing work. man! I love it. Super lighting and landscape

Great breakdown of a top quality shot Steffan. Thank you so much for sharing!

Beautiful work! Love it! :D

Woah your work is so good. ❤❤❤

Man it's unreal! This video is really interesting!

Great breakdown on achieving cinematic quality level, refreshing to see 3dsMax still being used.

yeah i thought people said 3ds max is dead ?

Need more tutorials from your humble student fan❤

Love to see this kind of 3D max set up story from you … great environment artist …

Very well done! First thought you were using Clarisse to scatter the city.

Amazing! Congrats and thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing the breakdown 🙌🙌

This is amazing, thank you so much for sharing. Would love a little bit of info about your lighting, rendering and comp.

Stunning !

Amazing, well done.

Thanks for the breakdown my man

Incredible work. Thank you to share this with us. Please make a more step-by-step video.

love to see more tips and tricks tutorials from you

Great tutorial/breakdown. Would love to know if everything was proxied. Also I love your "asset check" flow. Where each asset was rotated, THEN the lighting was rotated. Very clever.

Yes please makes detail tutorials ! You are insane :)

Amazing result.

Beyond inspiring. Could you please create a detailed postproduction video on this with Masashi Imagawa? How the scene was composited in post etc.?

nice breakdown :)

flawless

Great content!! I hope you could make more content like this

A paid full step by step tutorial for environment like this would be great

So epic!

Nice insights!

Thank you for the tutorial

incredible

Actually somehow less time complex than I would've expected, result is really nice

Really awesome...

wow is incredible, like they said is difficult to see on YT high professional workflow on max

Really nice

fantastic.

step bt sep tut will be really helpful 👍

Makes me want to create my own video game❤

Nice one buddy :)

Excellent breakdown Steffen. I was very curious, I saw on your ArtStation, that you previously used Maya for some of your projects. Which workflow do you prefer, Maya or 3Ds Max with Forest, Railclone Etc? And what tools are used if you for example had to do the same thing using a Maya based Workflow outside of 3Ds max. I Already know all the tools here having worked in Archviz for nearly 10 years, but I am curious what would be needed if I try and get into a Maya based production.

awesome

Awesome

Thank you 🙏

great job

Thanks for the Breakdown/tutorial! Did you switch to 3ds Max?

Wow!!!

Please talk more about shading details and how did u randomized the textures. Thx

@TheFireNoodle

So in Vray you can randomise the texture in multiple ways. The most simplest is using scholastic tiling in a vray UVW randomizer node that appears at render time.

NICEEEEEE

Please make a course on this .

hey your work is always inspirable and awesome , i have a question 0:59 how did u create the layout in 3ds max ??? i mean u modelled it or mega scans ?

my friend Masashi did that, planes + displace modifier (texture) + move vertices

This is great! How do you scatter the building? Lmao thats the million dollar question.

oh, I like it much more than Denis' version! this is more like what book made me think of. Not just fortified lifeless city buildings all around, but life! People, colors, drapes, markets, stores..

Amazing work please make more tutorial and more deeply

Bro so cool I'm inspired You

In some parts of the video I can see a vertice count of about 40mil, is that only the terrain, or the complete scene with all the assets?

OMG! 🥵🔥🔥🔥

how did you scatter the props? did you hand place every building or...

Hello Steffen, how much take for these render shots? And what is your PC specs?

they also use 3s max so its like original

It is a perfect job! really amazing! Dear friend what is a so beautiful soundtrack in video? I couldn't find same in DUNE 😞 Would you give me name of this soundtrack please?

you're fucking amazing

Do you also do the compositing?

what hardware configuration you used for this heavy scene..??

30M POLY !!!! DANGGGGG MY PC COULD NEVER , whats your setup?

How are you rendering a huge scene like this?

Where to render your animation sequences, do you use a render farm or do it local on your machine, any advice on this topic? How long does it take you to render each frame? Do you use CPU or GPU?

as for rendering ....how many hours does it take?

Is there any wayu you can give us some insight on how you were able to handle and maniuplate with any kind of efficiency and speed that kind of mind boggling polygon and asset count? Was everything proxied? Do you guys have a building full of Xeon workstations with entire racks of 3090TIs with entire shelves of exobytes of RAM? I understand studios have more computing power but something like this....in 3DS Max..? I'd love to learn how to come even close!

Hey, you are a really talented 3d artist. Very impressive work. However, I can hear that you are using my music, without my permission. I've never stated that my music is free, and I know, that you know that you don't use other people's hard work without their consent! Since you are a content creator, I would expect you to respect this. What was the reason for you to go about using my music without asking?

Read about copyright exceptions, such as fair use. You upload 10 hour of ambience loops, you can't expect to copyright it for monetization purposes. If you really want to be petty about it, go ahead and utilize KZread's copyright system, but I bet that won't get you anywhere anyway.
