Help designing levels in 3DS Max

Miscellaneous Forums/Content Creation Tools/Help designing levels in 3DS Max

Hello everybody =) ,

Since i'm trying to make a 3d game, i was looking out for tutorials about 3d level modelling/texturing with 3DS Max, but i couldn't find anything. I was wondering if you guys know any tuts or articles that would help me.
Also, if it isn't too much to ask, i would like to know what would be best to do: model the entire level and then texture it (using something like UVW Map or UV Unwrap), or texture it while modelling.

Thank you,
Rafael.
