why most tutorials suck?

i have the problem that most tutorials here are really for pros so nobody really need them bcz pros can do it by their self

why i say so?
The Making of the "DMF - 239 Coyote" Missile tutorial

i watched the toturial the didnt get the point bcz the title :how to make"
but wut i see is some pictures that a guy say i cxreated a mislle in poly (how the fuck he did that???) then edited some deteils (WTF : HOW HE DID THAT)

and then he say ooop and we have a mislle WTF!!!



the only one tutorial here is the wheels one that can be called tutorial


all other just suck

Well most tutorials on the internet require a basic knowledge of 3ds max to complete them. Some are ridicoulus some are not. You have to understand most tutorials are wirtten by everyday people like me and you. It takes quite a few key strokes to make a tutorial "noob proof". This is were a "handy book" can play a big role. Books are written I would say with enough detail to be noob proof. Hey Im a noob too, Im still learning through books and whats availiable on the net. If you are into car modeling this guy has a awesome set of videos http://www.smcars.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6534 . You have to be patient, no one in 3d does things at a lightning fast pace. I know your a little pissed, we can all be like that at times. Just sit down buy a book and read it. Simple as that.

Sounds like good advice to me. I have been using Max (4/5/6) for several years now and I'm still learning lots of stuff all the time. Books can be a great way to learn new things and get some hard evidence about what you want to know. I love to watch tutorials for inspiration and also just to see what/how other people are doing things. It's a great way to learn - and you gotta learn everything you can to be great at what you do. I know the road is long and twisty, but stick with it HELP, it's worth it. :D

Later.
