Hey Sorry for the super later repley, I dont get on here much. but stuff regarding game modeling you check out game-artist.net or polycount.com those are great places to learn about game modeling. Also, for the viewport shading and lighting I use Xoliul's 3DS Max Viewport Shader (
Xoliul's 3DS Max Viewport Shader - Page 19 - Game Artist Forums) I hope that helps,
I'll talk to you later
