Hi All,
Not sure if a consensus was reached on this, but I’m torn between which way to
turn in learning a new package.
Want to stay away from Maya as much as possible (since I already know it pretty
well) and will continue to use Soft for as long as I can, but thought it worth

Difficult one I guess ;)
Forget the software, where do you want to be in 2 years?
When you go on a trip you first pick your destination and then figure out
how to get there right?
just some thoughts...

Nice! Thanks for sharing. I think Softimage will be kept in a lot of
studios as part of their pipelines. People know it can't be replaced too
soon.
Hope someday Autodesk realize the wrong move they did.

FYI offsetting animation will slow things down a lot, in my experience.
Just get it working, then switch it off until render time if you can.
the question is what is your area of expretese what do you wanna do, are

You should go toward C4D since it's the one I'm planning to get into :)

I don’t know what we’ll go to when Softimage is eventually phased out of our
pipeline. (more than one app, that's for sure) But we’ve been evaluating C4D
and its far better than I thought it was going to be. (Based on its perception
in the industry) There is some really cool stuff in there. I’m
Have any of you tried TurbulenceFD with C4D?
It truly is startling how good it is.
Stuff I really struggled with is easy.
On the other hand, stuff that was easy in ICE, well, I reserve judgement
until I know more,
but TurbulenceFD doesn't seem to have the controls to art direct the fluid

This is quite true. Depending on what you actually intend to achieve, it may
affect your decision.
Even though I lean a lot more towards the technical side of things, I needed a
software package that would be able to do pretty much everything. I jumped on
Modo several months ago, and I've been
I addition to what Perry listed, I found a few very small things in C4D that
are nice. (Keep in mind, I have limited experience with C4D)

Sorry if i put this straight: Your bottom line is that free/opensource software

We still have the problem of discount prices in the industry. Companies gone

US/VFX sector alone.
Should work now. ;-)

Modo looks very nice, I really really like the UI. Great hand on tools...
some very quick and slick (but non-liniar) modeling tools.. Painting and

day.. very nice default render engine. Consistency

Hi Guys,
like all of you I've been spending a lot of time trying to decide where to
from here?
One of the tools I use constantly in my day to day job is Julian Johnson's
awesome Dart Throw ICE compound, for spritzing (those small condensation
drops that appear on cold drink cans and bottles).
I’ve been looking around at alternatives to Softimage and not having any luck.
Modo have some great features, but the interface is just crap. There are way
too many different layouts for things that should mostly be done in one or
maybe 2 different layouts. Things like snapping rotations (or
