kickstart that! I’m definitely backing that – one of the best suggestions yet.

Why don't we all put in some money and hire out a stand at siggraph? I'm serious. It would be so much fun.

Can't do this kind of scenarios, where even if you can do it in Maya, show how much longer it takes. With all of the attention being given the EOL of Soft, people might be interested in seeing what all the noise is about.

If someone want's to transition, there are a lot of material to train with. As already said, no need to try to work the same workflow in another app, it's different. Here, it's more "Give us some cool hint so we can copy them" .That's the whole thing since the "anouncement". "Give us your top 5", "what"s the 80% ice nodes..." Last thing I want to do is help AD in any way. I mean, nothing against the users, but frankly now you want to help AD make more money. AD, Give us the ability to continue to buy seats, in exchange we show you. I'm bad, my mother told me ... Le 19/03/2014 20:35, Bk a écrit : I'd love for AD to agree to a " First get an expert to do it in Softimage and get an expert do it in Maya" comparitive workflow video series. It would be most entertaining. Especially when you start bringing ice into the equation. Ive had some experience of this before. One notable occasion went Me in ice -30 mins.. 2 guys in Maya- a week and a half, but to be fair, they would usually achieve things in under a week.

Jesus...even with all those request and question they just don't care about Softimage, not even a single line...except the farewell from Mark Schnnoegel 2014-03-19 19:55 GMT+01:00 Paulo César Duarte <paulocdua...@gmail.com>: What I don't understand is how they want me to make the transition to a software that doesn't have the tools that I used before? Such as ICE mainly, in Max or Maya 2015 I won't have my workflow again, so there is no transition. I will continue using Softimage as long as I can, and complement with Houdini, Modo or Blender when necessary... because these softwares are those that more listen to your users, and that is the future for me. 2014-03-19 14:23 GMT-03:00 David Rivera <activemotionpictu...@yahoo.com>: So I head onto: http://area.autodesk.com/products/features/softimage , right? and I skipped intro (in a 1 hour lenght video, skipping intro is going straight to the middle, after all the "verbose"). So what they´re doing? Talking about maya in a softimage video. Quitted. Closed the tab on browser. Go on with my life. Now I´m pissed, because at the "last announcement" there wasn´t even a word of consideration for 15 years career on softimage. Not even an apology for taking away the the one thing that supports families and pays bills... David Rivera 3D Compositor/Animator LinkedIN Behance VFX Reel -- www.pauloduarte.ws
