According to WineHQ - 3D Studio Max 9.x the latest version 3D Studio MAX works "perfectly" in Windows 7 mode in Ubuntu-based distributions running in Wine 1.7. To install Wine 1.7 in Ubuntu 12.04, open the terminal and type:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine1.7 winetricks

Blender (blender) is a very fast and versatile 3D modeller/renderer application that is available in the default Ubuntu repositories. Blender is a nice application, especially the more recent versions of Blender, but it is complicated and has a steep learning curve.
