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 at least starting to look at an alternative since it will probably mean more employment options. At the moment I’m looking at the three main alternatives; Houdini, C4D and Modo. I like Houdini, having had a very brief look into it already. I also like the look of Modo 801 – particularly with the tie-up with other Foundry tools (which I assume will only get stronger in the future). But Cinema 4D also has some nice tools – particularly Xpresso which seems to be heading towards the ICE direction from what I’ve seen. I’ve also been sideways looking at Blender – although at the moment I just can’t seem to battle past the interface! Anyone have any insights into these that they can share that may help sway my decision? Again, apologies if this has done the rounds already! Cheers T.
