Milkshape is good for simple blocky graphics. It's easy to learn.

Gmax is good. It creates great graphics but I'm still learning it.
I think you can download it at their website ( www.discreet.com ).

The best one I know of is 3D Studio Max. I've never used it before though.

This is a neverending debate. Personally, I use 3D Studio Max. It's pretty powerful and easy to learn. Kinda pricey tho.

Actualy, I did. Student edition cost me $485. Granted, the only reason I shelled out cash for it was cuz I couldn't find a pirate version that worked . . .

My friend has a pirated version (Shhh don't tell anyone it's a secret) but my computer won't run it so that ends that. If you want to make really simple but really shonky 3D gfx, I recommend Nendo...

Hey, you guys tried Maya, it's Much Better than 3dstudio max but is also much much more complicated... You wanna know what software created Final Fantasy Spirits Within... This is it. Also if you want a 3d gfx program for very good terrain generation (and some small time modelling) try Corel Bryce. If you need a software that is capable of some physics and a game engine and free, try Blender. Oh, also tri lightwave 3d it is also cool...

Oh be quiet, I live in the philippines so i have a great access to many of these Cd's... pirated for only 3 dollars a piece... too bad MMF ain't popular in the philippines so i had to get workin for almost a year to buy that thing

Actually Final Fantasy was a combination of Maya, Softimage and Lightwave sooh!
Maya is only good for 1 thing
Animating
Max/Softimages is the best for modelling/texturing
and Final
Lightwave is the best for rendering
I use all since i cant find any program which fullfills all i need!
