Re: credits?

Two Suggestions:

1. Adobe Premiere is a very powerful editing program that has a very nice titling & credits feature. It's pretty expensive, but Adobe Premiere "Elements" is almost as good and much cheaper - under $100. It also has a 30-day free trial.

or...

2. In 3ds Max there is a text button under 2d Shapes. Create the text you want then add an Extrude modifier. You can give it an extrude depth of 0 if you want 2d text .

You can animate the text moving up or the camera moving down to get a scroll effect. But credits don't have to scroll. You can have the credits off-screen & when the time is right, move or rotate the camera over to view the credits.
