Ya, it's inevitable. Goodwin's Law but with Autodesk instead. Let's just avoid it this time? On Wed, Dec 7, 2016 at 3:16 PM, Graham Bell wrote: > I’m advocating not using Soft if it still works for you. I get that. > > > > But that wasn’t what I meant. It’s the whole

RE: Softimage EOL 2017 - The chronicles of a giant (documentary)

I’m advocating not using Soft if it still works for you. I get that. But that wasn’t what I meant. It’s the whole Autodesk bashing thing, but that’s just me. From: softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com [mailto:softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com] On Behalf Of Mirko Jankovic

I still use combustion everyday despite the fact I can’t stencil anymore (windows 10 issue, haven’t found a workaround), I try and try to give after affects a shot, but each year those tiny tiny dials and buttons get harder to read in after effects. One day I will move on. From: Graham Bell

So what, people are supposed to let go of perfectly fine tool that gets the job done 4-5 times faster then other tools? Where is logic in that? ᐧ On Thu, Dec 8, 2016 at 12:01 AM, Graham Bell wrote: > Hardly that impactful when they’re now 20% up from last year. > > > > At the

RE: Softimage EOL 2017 - The chronicles of a giant (documentary)

Hardly that impactful when they’re now 20% up from last year. At the time of the announcement I always figured in 2+2 equation of usage. 2 years before end of support, then another 2 years before people finally give it up. Though I’m sure it will go longer, I used to still come across people

Re: Softimage EOL 2017 - The chronicles of a giant (documentary)

Yes. Documentary always is made out of a revealing factor of truth. And I am proposing we grab this one from a side on the "ease of use" of softimage and the family/work struggle to manuver a new software all the while. I think that's good "reality" material in there. Regards. On Dec 7, 2016

Re: Softimage EOL 2017 - The chronicles of a giant (documentary)

Many people are currently being impacted by the EOL and even if they are not, the bad feelings run high for many. Perhaps something like a documentary needs the healing power of time before it would be more balanced... A great idea, for sometime further into the future, I think. On Wed, Dec 7,

Re: Softimage EOL 2017 - The chronicles of a giant (documentary)

Wasn't there an animation, a collective project, planned at a moment ? I like the idea that people are still 200% percent Softies years after eol, it might be silly, but that's a kind of beauty ! 2016-12-07 18:22 GMT+01:00 Steven Caron : > Right, and it would struggle to be a

Re: Softimage EOL 2017 - The chronicles of a giant (documentary)

Right, and it would struggle to be a proper documentary instead it would be more like an anti-Autodesk hit piece. We have plenty of anti-corporate documentaries. On Wed, Dec 7, 2016 at 8:33 AM, Dan Yargici wrote: > > My post was mostly a reaction to the feeling that this

Re: Softimage EOL 2017 - The chronicles of a giant (documentary)

Don't get me wrong, there's barely a day goes by that I don't miss Softimage for one reason or another. But seriously, the future now lies elsewhere, no matter how hard that is for people to accept. My post was mostly a reaction to the feeling that this situation is somehow deserving of a

Yup. Can't see us shifting from Soft for a while yet. On 7 December 2016 at 16:04, Chris Marshall wrote: > me too:-D > > On 7 December 2016 at 15:56, adrian wyer > wrote: > >> isn't 'get over it' what Trump supporters keep saying about
