This is a fully rigged and animated 3ds max file, Most parts consist of subdivision control cages (low poly models + meshsmooth modifiers). The model consist of separate segments linked to a multiple segment IK chain. Each segment has its own rotation point so no deformations occur on meshes. The IK chain in turn is driven by a spline controller that is controlled by 5 dummy's. The knifes and tips in front and back are also animated.

Note: This is a 3ds max native project/file setup with its native spline IK rigging tools, included exchange formats deliver only the model, they do not support/provide the 3ds max rigging setup.If you want to import Snakebot-RS1 into other 3D software packages please check out this option and read description carefully (https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/various/various-models/snakebot-rs1-import-pack).

Package contains following items:

• one 3ds max file rigged, animated and setup to render with default scanline renderer(fast but less photo real, see preview on top)
• one 3ds max file rigged, animated and setup to render with Octane renderer (plug-in) (produced most renders you see on top)
• Map with textures + texture environment and HDRI map

Note: Both 3ds max files are click render ready and deliver the results you see on top, however depending on the version of Octane render plug-in the shaders may convert to basic shaders.(file was made with Octane render 1.3 and only supports the shaders in that version natively)The scanline version renders in all 3ds max versions starting from 2010.
