----Based on years of design experience, the author introduces the relevant knowledge of Autodesk's 3DS MAX 4.0 and Adobe's Photoshop 7.0 in landscape 3D rendering design and production from design examples. Combined with examples, it explains the convenient methods and techniques of using these two software tools in this field in a step-by-step manner, from basic to advanced. The book integrates the characteristics of different landscape atmosphere, drawing requirements, and software operation, making it highly practical.
----The book is divided into six chapters. The first chapter introduces the basic functions and methods of 3DS MAX 4.0 commonly used for 3D modeling of landscape architectural details and planning. The second chapter introduces the 3D modeling of some landscape details, while the remaining four chapters combine common scene types in landscape planning and design to provide detailed explanations of modeling, material assignment, camera setup, lighting addition, scene rendering, and other procedural steps. It also covers methods and techniques for adding accessories and organizing scenes after the graphics are imported into Photoshop. Each major example in the book can be broken down into smaller examples, allowing readers to master computer design and drafting methods and techniques in a relatively short time through these practical exercises.
----All example files and materials used in the book are included on the accompanying CD-ROM, which can be referenced or used as a reference during the operation process. The book also provides reference value for other versions of 3DS MAX and Photoshop. With rich content, typical examples, and detailed steps, it is suitable for technical personnel engaged in landscape design, landscape planning, and flat art production using computers. It can also serve as teaching material for relevant universities or training programs.
