When you apply a transformation to an object, a lot of the time 3dsMax won&#8217;t actually modify the object so much as add a &#8220;phantom&#8221; modifier to the stack.  This can have some serious consequences when you change the pivot of your object (or worse, when an animation constraint does it for you).\u00a0 It&#8217;s often called object skewing, or object slanting.\u00a0 It&#8217;s where your model gets distorted when you move, rotate, or scale it.\u00a0 In this Monday Movie, I&#8217;ll show you how to recognize the problem, fix it if it comes up, and prevent it from ever happening again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3dsMax XForms can be a pain sometimes.
