Difference between 3Ds Max and Maya

Unity Engine
1

Hey, I wanted to download 3Ds Max for modeling, but 3Ds Max is just available for Windows and i have OS X, but I saw an other software. It is Maya, and it is also available for Mac OS X. But what is the difference? Is it also okay?

Or do somebody know, if 3Ds Max is also available for Mac OS X ?

Thanks

I’ll be damned, there is really no Max for Mac.

To my knowledge Max has a stronger focus on modeling and Maya has a strong focus on animation, The amount of modeling tools in Maya is much lower that that in Max, but everything you really need is there and I’ve seen fantastic models made with Maya, so what do I know. It’s definitely also ok. Even the smaller Maya LT should be enough.

And what do you think is better Cinema4D or Maya, for modeling and co.

Both Maya and Max are very expensive; just use Blender. It’s free.
