ABSTRACT
To perform the exercises in this book, you should be using 3ds Max in its default configuration with units set to Generic Units.
Syntax and Organization A script is a series of statements written out in text form. 3ds Max interprets what is written in a script, then performs the action. If the statements are not written correctly, the script will not execute properly, or it might not run at all. The sequence and organization of script commands, called syntax, is very precise. Deviations from correct syntax will cause an error in the script. Usually, MAXScript will let you know if you've scripted something it doesn't understand.
