Yah, Hi people. I recently got acquainted with this program called Swift 3D, which I intend to use it to import 3D models into Flash. But you know what the problem is? I'm such a noob at it that I don't even know how to even make a simple custom 3D model with it. I find it overwhelming to use right now too as I don't really know most of the commands. Its really intimidating.

I found a few tutorials, but some are brief, or don't give me any sufficient understanding on how it works. Does anyone know any GOOD tutorials (video preferably, but text is acceptable) that they recommend to help me get a good and comfortable start with Swift 3D?

I would really, really appreciate it. Thanks ;)

I don't know much about swift3D, but the folks over at erain's forums could probably help you out a lot better than anyone here could. Good luck!

I recently got Swift3D as well. Have you read the help files yet? They aren't the cut and dry boring stuff like Flash helpfiles, they're written as if a real person is talking to you. But I'm still newb as well, if I find any tutorials that help me out I'll be sure to post them here.
