Ah thanks lads. Looks like there will be no Max 3D. I think Blitz3D would have been ok but the language is too primitive.
The world has definately moved on languages wise, and I've no reason to use something like that. Max's language is fine though, comparable to c# from what I've seen, however no 3D engine for it that is powerful.
I think for my little (hobbyist) 3D adventures I will be looking at c# with dark sdk (from dark basic) as it is rock solid from a 3D engine point of view. Perhaps Ogre too.
