Tutorial | Complex Shapes in 3ds Max (Using Illustrator) 

If you care, you can go to the Image trace options, and check the box that says "Ignore White" it won't trace the white background of the image, so you won't need to delete it in 3DS Max.

Wow awesome this is extremely useful... thnkz man

Thanks for the tut! Didn't know we could import an Illustrator file, I always created logos and stuff like that directly in MAX :P This is much better!!

I love your tutorials!

Wow this tutorial really useful, thanks for made my day :)

Woww thank you very much for this easy tutorial!!! :DD I was actually wondering if inside the illustrator, after you hit expand, if you could just ungroup it and delete some of the unwanted parts of the image traced, you wouldnt have to delete splines in 3ds studio max? :D but still this is super helpful :) subbed

love your tutorials! please make more :D

Hey mate, nice one. BTW you can use the white arrow in AI to delete the surrounding box.

Thanks a lot

Excellent video as always.

Shizzle my nizzle! This changed my life :D Thank you

I just got the chance to look in CS6, and I can't figure out where that option is. In CS5 it was in the options if you clicked on "Tracing Options" under the "Live Trace" drop down menu. If you click on Expand in CS6 after doing the Image Trace, it will convert it to paths, and you can delete it there if that's easier for you. At that point it's probably just as easy to delete it in 3DS Max though.
