houdini here now and Blackginger do too, in quite a big way - so it is
very much gaining ground.

No such thing. Your best bet is a mix of cgsociety, most active Maya forum
around to date I believe, Maya beta forums (plenty invites from AD staff
here and elsewhere have been offered) and scavenging rigs and plugins (most
of which are frankly atrocious, but there are plenty gems out there).

A list, just like this list, with people who have things in common with the
people on this list, is actually *this* list? If it keeps going
indefinitely, as more of us transition to other software, isn't this the
best place to share our experiences, questions, help etc?

Hey Ger there is actually a thread called salvage the list, it has been a
discussion about creating a new common ground where everyone regardless of
what they have to use DCC wise can come to share/ask for knowledge. the
point is for people not to split up.

there is an old maya mailing list, it's the google group called maya_he3d
it's called that way because it's a migration of the highend3d.com maya
mailing list.
it's been very low volume.

Hi Sandy
Here at wits we have reached out to the places that have traditionally
used softimage to see what they were thinking of switching to. Its
interesting to hear Blackginger is also using Houdini as well as I was
under the impression it was mostly a Maya place.
Do you know any other places

Hi Gerbrand
I always found this place pretty useful when needing a bit of advice in
maya, it is soup focused of course but there is some good people on there
willing to help in different areas.

Hi Angus,
Blackginger do not really use Maya at all - they used to use it for
Ncloth, but are now using Marvelous Designer. They use Softimage for
everything up to end of animation, where they use Houdini for VFX and
rendering in Mantra - they have been that way for about 4 -5 years now.
I get what you guys are saying, but with all that's happened in the last
few days, it didn't feel right to start asking how to do this in
maya questions here.
It almost feels like discussing the will of a loved one while
identifying the body at the morgue.
Also, there is a strong sentiment of
Hi Sandy
That¹s very helpful. I suspect I got my shops mixed up.
Kind regards

The old Maya mailing list is cool but the beauty of a Softimage to Maya
list would be artists who are experienced in both Soft + Maya teaching you
where the equivalent buttons/methods are.
The 'Salvage the list' thread isn't great as its already emotionally
charged by title.

Well if you read the only post in the soft to maya group, we are off
to a positive start`.-
I like this list, but I don't want to piss you great people off with my
stupid Maya questions
Believe me... they will be stupid. Just ask Matt Lowery how annoying I
got when he taught me Soft.
So I'll
Yeah I think asking Maya questions or houdini questions or whatever is not
such a bad idea, the community here is very helpful and important, but
let's see little by little how people feels.

btw, we can host a softimage-to-maya list, but I just think it's a
little early to be doing that.
in my opinion, a lot of people using Softimage also use Maya
occasionally, so it's beneficial to talk about Maya here - even for
the people that won't be doing that transition. This isn't the
I would actually really really like that, Luc-Eric. We'll be
transitioning to Maya here and we'll need some help translating certain
workflows. For example... set dressing by ICE-scattering instances of
plants everywhere... Stuff like that... Not so much the 'where's the
Inset tool' but more

I would fully endorse it and participate in it, but yes, doing it so early
would be a major PR ClusterF**k. No matter the intentions it could only be
perceived negatively and kill a good and useful effort before it starts.
Give it some time.

The HE list back then, SGI and Alias times, was the exact equivalent of
this place. I don't think it's even worth mentioning these days though,
it's practically dead.

Hey guys
This goes against my grain, but I can sit around bitching, or I can move on.
My initial instinct says not to support AD, but I'm a freelancer and it
is important for me to slot into a team, or lead a team with the same
software.
Right now the South African market has a nice collection
