Re: Softimage to Arnold going open source

[Tenshi]

@Steven, sure i´ll do that. and hopefully will get surprises in the near
future. On thing that will be good to update it´s the user guide from web
and the pdf to reflect what have been done in the last years, most of the
techniques or info there are sometimes obsolete right now with the new
methods, shaders, workarounds ,etc. If you need help with that let us know,
more than willing to help.

One last thing, can you clarify if the last Sitoa version is ´4.1 with
core 5.0.1.1´? or core 5.0.2.4?

Exactly, I would happily contribute some time in making sure new features
in Arnold core make it into SItoA.

@Tenshi, best thing to do is fill up the ticket/bug/feature requests. So we
know what is needed.

Re: Softimage to Arnold going open source

[Tenshi]

Hopefully from time to time you guys put at least half of the features from
the latest Mtoa inside. You all know why some of us still use Softimage
instead of Maya, a LONG list of reasons.
Thanks for let us keep the flame alive someway.

 *Softimage to Arnold* (or *SItoA*), the Arnold plugin for Autodesk
 Softimage is being made available to the community under an Apache2.0 open

 This repository contains the official SItoA plugin source code. Solid
 Angle, the company behind the Arnold renderer, and now part of Autodesk,
 developed the SItoA plugin commercially from 2009 to 2017.


 After the Softimage end-of-life announcement in April 2014, Solid Angle
 committed to continue the development and maintenance of SItoA for at least
 a year, and then extended this period until July 2017, porting SItoA to the
 new Arnold 5 API along the way.

Hi Tenshi,

Hopefully we'll continue implementing stuff on our spare time, maybe the
community will team up to implement new features and keep up with the
Arnold releases.

Re: Softimage to Arnold going open source

[Tenshi]

 I was always excited with each new update, even though there were very few
since last year. I was the one who bothered them on twitter every time to
include the same options that Mtoa had.
The program that gave them fame and money is now reduced to nothing. When
Mtoa was not even born, it was Softimage who started the Arnold revolution
in the eyes of many.

The least they could do is make it open source, something that Autodesk
does not have the eggs to do.
I am very upset now, but I partly understand the decision but I do not
share it.

I had expected more of a silent death in the night.

But as you say, at least it can live on if there are willing folk in the
community committed to keeping the distribution alive.

Softimage to Arnold going open source

[Frederic Servant]

*Softimage to Arnold* (or *SItoA*), the Arnold plugin for Autodesk
Softimage is being made available to the community under an Apache2.0 open
source license at:

https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__github.com_Autodesk_sitoa=DwIFaQ=76Q6Tcqc-t2x0ciWn7KFdCiqt6IQ7a_IF9uzNzd_2pA=GmX_32eCLYPFLJ529RohsPjjNVwo9P0jVMsrMw7PFsA=lI3XquuMswpgfa4tMyRNx8llqMEsNED9_KkogcxQt6s=7PoHCS5rtXf751nEvC_oESW-Fgt_fypm0LrQL-7HnMA=

This repository contains the official SItoA plugin source code. Solid
Angle, the company behind the Arnold renderer, and now part of Autodesk,
developed the SItoA plugin commercially from 2009 to 2017.

After the Softimage end-of-life announcement in April 2014, Solid Angle
committed to continue the development and maintenance of SItoA for at least
a year, and then extended this period until July 2017, porting SItoA to the
new Arnold 5 API along the way.


*Governance*

Please submit your issues and pull requests on github, the old Trac server
will remain available for a while as read-only but we won’t accept any new
users.

We will continue to monitor and review pull requests submitted to this repo
on a voluntary basis, but will not release official builds any more.
