Does anyone have physical sets of guides for Softimage|3D 4.0? Building a machine to run this bad boy after 15 years.

I'm very interested if you are selling. Thanks!

I can't help, but are you requiring those books in particular to learn to use?

Reason I ask.. Inside SOFTIMAGE 3D by Anthony Rossano is a good book. Seems to be the recommended read and still easily available.

To have as an offline reference in sync with the version I'm working with is why. I prefer physical books :)

Thanks!

i'd be surprised to hear that these books actually exist for 4.0.

if i recall right, that version was an afterthought at the time - something they released to keep a handful of companies invested in SI3D happy - while they were generally pushing XSI front and center.

we had these books but they came matching with version 3.6 or 3.7 and were not replaced as far as i was aware. rather, starting with 3.8 they shipped PDF manuals. anyway, wow has it been a long time or what. :)
