RE: Any Dinosaurs Still Lurking?

2018-05-24 Thread Jeff McFall

I don’t pay as much attention as I used to but I am still here.

started in Softimage 2.66 and stayed till the end.
working pretty much exclusively in Houdini the past couple of years.

I am continually amazed by the potential and flexibility of Houdini but it does 
come at a price.
It really is a different animal than Soft.

If I have any regrets it is that I didn’t discover Houdini earlier.
However a lot of the stuff I learned in ICE prepared and set a foundation me 
for me to use in Houdini.
I would have been totally lost without that.
I don’t have much of a technical background so what I do understand has pretty 
much been learned on the spot.

Jeff

Still lurking as well, here and on si-community.

Started fiddling with SI|3D NT (up to 3.9), after that moved on to XSI 3.0 and 
beyond.
Mostly Maya these days for the generic stuff, but still using XSI for my own 
jobs.

Also doing a bit of Unity-Unreal / real-time stuff lately, and keeping an 
interested eye on the Blender v.2.8 development.

Still lurking.. from the days of Softimage3D and Eddie on Silicon Graphics

And prior to that Cubicomp, Topaz and Tips.

I think that anyone who used the particle system up to version 6 may as well

How was everyone experience with the transition to the new particle system on

Nice to see everyone still hanging around :-)
1997 was my starting point on this list.
Mostly Maya these days as well, but moving more and more into the VR /

Yes, sill here, forced to work in MAX for real-time asset baking and 
industrial animations, but I get to sneak over into XSI world when 
nobody's looking to do the serious work that can be ported back to MAX. 
Luckily I can work from my studio in Hawaii most the time.

Re: Any Dinosaurs Still Lurking?

2018-05-17 Thread Thomas Volkmann


Still lurking...I just started working at a new place and they said they have a Softimage license somewhere, but I didn't manage to install it yet. Thinking of skipping it completely, although I have tons of 'that-would-have-been-so-easy-in-Softimage" moments lately. So it's mainly Cinema 4D and Blender for me right now, which feels quite ok considering the options. Also looking into Houdini and Unreal whenever I can... and someone mentioned TouchDesigner which I never have heard of before. That one looks pretty interesting.Also I just resubscribed with a new mailadress to this list for more intense lurking!Anyone going to Offf in Barcelona next week?cheers,Thomas

2018-05-16 Thread Oliver Weingarten


Hey there,

yes, still lurking here ;)

Celebrating 20 years of 3D...and all SOFTIMAGE this summer. Started with 
Softimage 3.7 on IRIX on a noisy machine from hell called "Crimson" ;)
Then NT with 3.8...3.9...XSI 2.0 up to XSI 2015 sp2 and still using it 
because no competitor stepped up to made a serious replacement for it.


I miss the times doing stuff together with Eric on daily calls and 
bouncing ideas around..had great fun to organize and host the Uebertage 
until 2016.
But those days are counted and gone. Still running the si-community, but 
numbers of post get lower and lower..so, this list is one of the last 
glances of a great community we once had. Still pissed about AD and the 
huge damage they caused. I sometimes wonder how many carrers were 
destroyed and how much money people were forced to burn into thin 
airfor at least nothing.


Usinig Houdini nower days for VFX stuff and it´s big fun. took a while 
to get it, though ;) But when it comes to clean up and animate CAD 
models, Houdini sinmply does not work in any concern..bu that´s 
different topic.


Looking forward to keep on reading from you guys out there and hope, AD 
won´t switch off the list to soon ;)


Cheers,
oli

2018-05-16 Thread toonafish

another lurker here.

Switched from Lightwave with SI 5.0, so that would make me a more recent 
dinosaur…a chicken maybe :-)

I’m still clinging on to Softimage as if nothing happened. I sometimes have to 
work in Maya, just to run back as soon as possible.

I’ve seen some promising stuff in the upcoming Blender 2.8, and I heard 
Redshift is working on supporting it as well. So I’m keeping my eye on that as 
well.

Re: Any Dinosaurs Still Lurking?

2018-05-16 Thread Markus Cermak


Add one more Dinosaur

I´m still using Softimage alot (like modelling) :D and added Houdini 
into the mix for everything where I can´t go further with SI no need for 
an AD Mwhatever.



We started with XSI 5 and think also joined the list back then.

Longtime reader rarely posted but learned a hell lot from all this great 
ppl on this list.


Si will be still used for everything where it makes sense and as I´m in 
the unlucky lucky position that most of the time I'm a oneman band I 
don´t need to worry about sharing assets with big pipelines  blablabla.


Nothing out there beats a combination of SI and Houdini.

XSI off the top spot any time soon, until they up their game to a 
comparable standard of creative fluidity.

15 years, I guess I'm a dinosaur, maybe the Cretaceous period?!

Certainly miss Softimage, but Maya is fine once you get over the bumps.
Next thing to tackle is Houdini, although MASH has impressed me a lot
recently.

Re: Any Dinosaurs Still Lurking?

2018-05-15 Thread Tim Crowson

Seems I have been on this list for nearly 10 years, so that doesn't qualify
me quite as a dinosaur. Maybe one of those annoying chicken-sized ones?

I don't use Soft anymore but I still lurk. Mostly it's a mix of Maya and
Katana these days, but Houdini is likely around the corner for me.

Speaking of jurassic, I was on Cubicomp for 5 years when the dinosaurs arrived 
in 93.

Hard to believe its been 22 years that I’ve been on this list. Still using SI 
occasionally but less and less these days.

What a blast to see all these names today! Glad to know you all are still out

I am still using Softimage exclusively, I am wondering if anyone would care to 
briefly describe the advantage and disadvantages of using Maya for character 
animation. I am hoping there are some advantages.

2018-05-14 Thread Marc Brinkley

Still reading every now and then. Career changes lead me away from getting 
hands on software these days. Unless you count Excel as vital software for 
visual development.

Only feels like yesterday when Kim scolded me on the brand new XSI mailing 
list. And even prior on the old Softimage 3D mailing list too.

I do miss slapping on a pair of headphones and just modeling all day.

A lot of environment artists use Houdini

VFX artists still mostly use Max but the senior ones are seriously learning and

I'm still here and actually following the 'Houdini: non vfx jobs?' very 
interested. I added Houdini 2 and a half years ago to my daily weapons 
but still use SI on some projects. Some tasks are simply so much faster 
and easier to do in SI. It always depends on the project.

2018-05-14 Thread Mirko Jankovic

Guess wil have to wait for that closing signa bit more hehe
Unfortunately I'm not spending much time in SI lately, more on freelancing
tasks for animation which is *argh* all maya,
learning character animation in Houdini is a bit on long stick as industry
looking for char animation in Houdini is practically non existent.
Even with my small gpuoven farm there is less and less Softiamge render
tasks to help people with  that are closer to statistical error then real
thing.

Hi!
I'm still here…
Doing mainly pipeline and supervising but still uses Softimage with Arnold
as main DCC when I need to dig in with my own hands.
Still haven't decided what to learn after Softimage but I'm most excited
about Unreal and Houdini.

Glad you mentionend Touch Ed. I stopped using Touch for a decade or so and
now I use it for as much as possible before committing to Houdini Maya or
Nuke.
It’s GLSL support is outstanding. I use Touch osc to present in no way that
PowerPointers could dream of. Greg and his team created such a wonderful
tool. It’s what Houdini should have become years ago. Real-time, and as
mentioned on this list circa 2002, a visible heterogeneous scene graph.
That’s my dinosaur talk.

Yep, still here. There's even at least one new person that joined last year
that is on my team--even though we use Houdini, Maya, and Max. The "M's"
will drive you mad. I'm so thankful Houdini is not owned by AD. I only get
to use Soft at home on my personal projects anymore.

I still read the list pretty regularly, but have found the S/N ratio
degraded compared to a few years ago.

I still use Softimage a lot, along with Unreal and Touchdesigner. Real-time
is getting to the fun creative exploration place that VFX was in for so
many decades (for me at least).

Touchdesigner is getting more and more capable, and is very ICE-like in a
lot of ways (which is not really surprising given its roots in Houdini).
It's really becoming my tool of first resort for a lot of things. And many
important parts have already been moved onto the GPU, so performance for
certain things is insane. Particle counts in the millions in real-time or
near-real-time, for example.

Dinosaurs are still around in IRL, anyway -- we call them "birds" now.

I still lurk. I still use Softimage with Redshift3D. I still make money
doing 3D animation
for Commercial TV/media. I will retire in about 6 years, so I don't think I
will need to learn a new
application. I believe the next step would have been to look at something
like Unity or Unreal.
It would take the rendering out of the workflow. Redshift3D delayed that
change, for me, as
rendering is not such an issue, now. My system has a dual 1080Ti / SLI
configuration
so render speed with Redshift3D and that hardware, is quite good.

I am a one-man freelance situation, so I can afford to continue along this
software/hardware
configuration, and still make a living wage. I am eternally grateful to
this Mailing List as
it is a good source of information, and a great sharing spirit exists
between all the participants.

I will continue to lurk. Just not a whole lot to post about any more.

Yeah, was just getting to the point with ICE where I felt I could creatively 
solve most production problems.

It was really amazing for the final tweak phases of a project, where clients 
would pixel f@$k with simulations. I was converting my particle sims into 
geometry in order to tweak sim paths using deformers and envelopes, precise 
control without losing that simulation feel. I miss that creative satisfaction.

I read less and less but like Francois, I lurk over the subject lines from
time to time. :)

How's everyone doing? I for one stopped rigging in Softimage and decided to
focus full-time on Python pipeline work where I jump around in Maya, Nuke
and sometimes Houdini.

I still miss ICE dearly.

Re: Any Dinosaurs Still Lurking?

2018-05-11 Thread Matt Lind

I wouldn't call myself a dinosaur, but I'm still here.

I remember that SIGGRAPH.  Nothing like having 10 mosquitos fly in your 
mouth when trying to drink your beer.  I drove all the way from Chicago to 
attend it.  Did the trip in 18 hours flat, nonstop, but for me it was the 
show where if it could go wrong, it did go wrong.

For example, Kim Aldis and I were invited by Maggie to show examples of 
using the XSI SDK in production for the Softimage SDK summit.  Upon checking 
into my hotel the night before and plugging in my computer, I discovered all 
my addons had been corrupted and my original source code to those addons was 
on a CD back home leaving me nothing to show.  I think Kim experienced 
something similar.  The next day at the SDK summit after the Softimage SDK 
developers finished their lectures, MC Maggie told everybody in the room to 
gather around the table where Kim and I were sitting (this was all 
unscripted), then spent a few minutes hyping us up as the best XSI users 
worldwide to set the stage.   Maggie then gave us the floor, but Kim and I 
both kind of shrugged our shoulders because neither of us had anything 
tangible to show.  So we tried to turn it into an impromptu Q+A session, but 
it was a long 15 minutes of crickets.  The misery didn't end there...

I was also invited by Dave Lajoie to give a presentation how to write 
shaders at the Softimage mental ray summit.  I was really intent on making a 
good showing as I had developed a suite of light shaders for 3rd party 
distribution I wanted to show off.  But again, my addons containing all my 
shaders were corrupt and the source code was at home on a CD.  I tried to 
explain to Dave, but he just cut me off and reassured me everything would be 
alright.  He was thinking I was merely a little nervous from butterflies or 
whatever.  Anyway, I lugged my desktop computer to the summit, hooked it up 
to the projector and had to figure out how to fill 20 minutes with nothing 
to show.  As I look around the room I see Thomas Driemeyer, the head of 
development for mental images watching intently.  Standing next to him is 
Marc Stevens and other important people from Softimage.  So I can't do any 
fibbing to the pass the time, I needed to be accurate.  Frantically 
searching my hard drive I found some old code for a light shader, but it was 
a really early version that I knew had many bugs.  So on the spot I 
improvised by introducing the mental ray manuals, where to find information 
to write shaders, and specifically, how to understand the manuals as that 
was a complaint I often saw on the list (most people only read the softimage 
documentation which was often misleading).  After a few minutes I saw 
disappointed faces in the crowd, so I took a deep breath, loaded my buggy 
code into visual studio, and started the demonstration.  Before I could get 
too far, Dave crawls up on his hands and knees and informs me with a hand 
gesture I have 2 minutes remaining.  So I quickly rushed through what I 
could of my light shader code and showed a few pre-rendered images of what 
it could do, then wrapped up.  Ugh...

There were many other mis-capades at that show, but I digress.

Upon returning home from the show, I discovered XSI had a bug in the addon 
system.  In early versions of XSI, all installed addons were stored in a 
single file, not separate files like they are today.  Adding or removing an 
addon meant the application would add/remove the relevant data from the 
file.  But in the specific case of deleting an addon, there was a bug where 
it introduced a byte offset error by deleting too much or too little 
information.  All addons before the location of the error were fine, but all 
addons appearing after the error were corrupted as data would be offset or 
missing.  If you ever deleted the first addon in the file, then you 
effectively corrupted all of them.  The only remedy was to reinstall XSI.

Just curious?

Now that I?m a resident in San Antonio, I was reminiscing about old 
SIGGRAPHs on the Riverwalk, and came to the realization that the Softimage 
mailing lists, for me at least, were my Facebook before there was official 
social media.

San Antonio still owes me a camera!
