Does 3dsmax 2011 have...

[Kyriakos]

An online library of materials?

Bryce 6 came with a large number fo excellent materials, but it seems in 3dsmax you have to make them yourself, by re-arranging the main ones it has, which appear to be few. Alternatively you can just create your own using bitmaps, but i hate that

So, anyone know if there is something i am missing in this?

You can load the ones it comes with by selecting them from the Autodesk/3ds Max/maps directory in the Material Editor. I don't think there are tons of them available though. Although searching in Google Images under 'what you are looking for' texture will bring up lots of texture maps, and you simply need to save the image, which is easy enough.
