ok.. so i got 3ds mnax 5 from my school... tried making stuff and i cant... i can get the idea for actually making things, but i can see what im making... any way to move the camera around? ive looked for tutorials and stuff but cant find any real "newbie" tutorials

Do what I did and spend a weekend going through the Users Guide and New Features in the help files. You'll be suprised how easy it is.

:-/ i didnt get the user guide.... i picked up the CD from school... thats all she (my teacher) gave me... but i can go through the help files

Its on the CD. When you install it look under Help in the menu.

oh.. haha found it :-P thanks
