killing the software that complements the key product in such a way would be

Hey guys,
Just installed Maya 2015, because I need its SDK to compile some plugins.
Out of curiosity I took a look at the new version, especially the node
editor. A few weeks ago I heard or read that they had improved the node
editor, but from what I saw it is the same unusable piece of crap
Very nice Max! It's great you are now able to fully rig a character in
Houdini!!
So , is it more or less easy to rig a character, compared to XSI?
These face controls made me think of a question: is there a synoptic
view equivalent in Houdini?
Keep up the good work!!

Modo's nodes are quite pretty, all they need is a bit of color to identify
different components of a tree :), why is no one else doing this ?
is it because an ICE trees layout is linear ? so its easier to identify

coding ?
The color coding of nodes in Modo's is very different from ICE's:
instead of coding by node type, they inherit the color assigned to the

something, right-click, and set the 'Editor Color', the corresponding

If they do get one, please someone make sure that they make it work with

with our required expenditure.
Exactly the same here Simon, I think Mantra has come a long way in the last
couple of years. In fact it would be my next choice behind Arnold right now.
The beauty is you can have both!, the Alembic workflow in Houdini is also
brilliant.
It really is a no brainer for us at this stage...
