Re: New render layers in maya

The robot voice talking about rendering a robot does not help in humanizing
Maya;)

It looks like there are a lot of good advancements to make maya or a more
tolerable direction for us to take. Still have not jumped ship for another
3D  app yet. Lots of interesting things happening everywhere...

Re: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

[Artur W]

Many AD corporate decisions seem irrational and strange to us.
Why should this case be any different?

I truly wish everything would go as we wanted. Constant progress and
development of Arnold.

Re: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

Yes, some aren't excited about paying AD money but that is what I am
saying... AD will need to keep these people happy or they will ditch
Arnold. Breaking Arnold in C4D or Houdini is a lose lose scenario. They
don't sell a Maya license and they don't sell an Arnold license. If we
reduce AD's behaviors to 'corporate greed' like this forum tends to do,
then alienating thousands of users is illogical.

Yes, but as we know a lot of people pay them not very willingly. Matter of
choice.
So, conspiracy theory, all they need to do after they plant arnold within
Maya and/or Max is to just mess SDK a bit. Not as if they haven't already
on purpose or by accident.
Vray suddenly having glitches and bugs, the promises of fixes prolong.

Just imagining things, but who knows.

Re: New render layers in maya

[Luc-Eric Rousseau]

Maybe it's because I know how this stuff works, but I think that video
seems to make it looks more complicated than it is.

XSI's render setup system has passes, groups, background/forground
partitions, creating an override prop, drag and dropping from ppg divot or
explorer to some dead spot on that override ppg. I think it would look
complicated if you speed through an explanation of that, it takes some soak
time to figure how all of that works.

This maya system is one to build a procedural recipe that will be applied
at render time.  Overrides are procedural in XSI (i.e. string-based) but in
this everything else is expression-based and late-bound, which means it can
deal with references and changing scenes.  The render setup can be exported
and manipulated in json.

Re: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

[Jim Yeh]

The first thing that AD will do is to make Arnold stop working with
competing app such as C4D, Houdini, or, most importantly (and maybe the
main reason they buy Arnold), NUKE, yeah, AD already killed Softimage so
they are not even going to mention it's name.  Then they will let the
development team go and let it die off, just like Softimage.  Yes, AD will
have lots of R time on Arnold, to study how to destroy another fine tool
just to show everyone how good they are at this.

Re: Baking deformers on mesh? - Softimage Alembic to Modo

[Toonafish]

It's probably easier to bake to MDD, Modo supports it as well.

Then add MDD deformer to the imported basemesh in Modo :

select mesh in the viewport : "RMB click > Item Operations > Add

ABC brings the mesh and camera (camera is way offset in X) into modo 
and the mesh also just runs but no actual deformation on the geo occurs.


I haven´t tried exporting shapes, since I don´t know what kind of

I thought I didn´t need to bake anything, I thought it was only a

Please help, how do I correctly export all those Ops and Deformers 
deforming the Geo?


I´d really appreciate some help. Thanks.

Re: Crate Alembic, get material names in xsi from 3dsmax abc file

I am doing some maxscript with materials mostly reading and writing

Nothing complex but if you want compare notes, hit me up off the list.
Also if you are working on something to share with the community let me

Baking deformers on mesh? - Softimage Alembic to Modo

[Pierre Schiller]

Hello team, good day.
I´ve rigged a simple model (plastic bag) with deformers. The hierachy looks
this way:

+ COG_Control
  - Geo Mesh
- Wave deformer OP
- Lattice
-Shape Jitter OP

So when I play the timeline, a see a jittery object with the aspect of
floating waves passing through. All cool. Works.

But when I need to port this to Modo, I try to bake all deforms from
(Animation>Plot>All transforms) create the animation clip and export is as:
* Obj sequence
* ABC file

So the obj reads but doesn´t show wavery body. I see all the transforms
correspond.

ABC brings the mesh and camera (camera is way offset in X) into modo and
the mesh also just runs but no actual deformation on the geo occurs.

I haven´t tried exporting shapes, since I don´t know what kind of behaviour
for baking I should look.

I thought I didn´t need to bake anything, I thought it was only a matter of
exporting the ABC.

Please help, how do I correctly export all those Ops and Deformers
deforming the Geo?

I´d really appreciate some help. Thanks.
Cheers.

Re: New render layers in maya

[Perry Harovas]

The VAST majority of us will hate it because it is from AD, even if it is
great.

Which it isn't.

I watched the whole video and it overcomplicated something that isn't that
complicated, frankly.
AD owns the IP for Softimage Layers/Passes. Just use THAT!

Why does it have to feel like it is taking a step backwards?

Why does Maya always have to complicate things which are not all that
complicated?

I have been using Maya for about as long as possible (years-wise, not time
wise).
This has always been the way with Maya.

Make it complicated. Always. That seems to be the #1 design goal (if there
is a design).

*Here's a thought: Just because it is complicated doesn't mean it is good.*

*Here is another thought: Just because it doesn't appear complicated,
doesn't mean it isn't deep.*

 Seems just like another attempt to push something that is not design
 with Maya nature at all and crammed it inside...

 Ideas and workflows from Softimage simply doesn't work inside maya
 because it is wrong environment completely.

 You can;t get same workflow in something that was sometimes design in
 completely different logic in mind... and now even worse as it become this
 huge Frankenstein of misc workflows and ideas from all the purchased
 software and cramped in it.. pieces that by itself are maybe even good but
 when crammed together they simply don't talk to each other.

 Practically you have full house of workers that don;t talk to each
 other or understand each other and trying to make a building...

Re: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

[Jordi Bares]

For once I am optimistic, AD has no product competing with Arnold, if anything 
Mental Ray will be left behind (as it should) and Arnold will reign as the 1st 
class product it is, nevertheless I will pay attention to AD next moves to see 
if they really intend to support all the other competitors now that they have a 
key product in their portfolio.

My guess is that Marcos wouldn’t have sold it otherwise so this may be actually 
good news after all.

If having more R time is the goal I think Marcos has done a great move and 
hopefully it will propel Arnold forward in big steps rather than finessing 
steps.

I for once will sleep after an acquisition

Re: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

[Cristobal Infante]

Softimage was retired 2 years ago, and on that day Marcos Fajardo said it
would support Softimage for 1-2 years.

Anyone who can't see the end of Sitoa is still on denial..

Strange thing is, I feel like AD make something with their own way, not
based on human interface theory of stuff. Whenever I see their new release,
I feel like 'that's freaking fxxked up interface...

This is not a problem of "who" says "what" today in an article.

 Hi Arthur,

 Since I'm the developer of HtoA, that was my first question
 when we got briefed by Marc Stevens of Autodesk when we got 
 disclosed, and
 his answer was a clear yes. They want more people to use Arnold, 
 on any
 platform.

 Thus the development for the non-Autodesk products will
 continue as well (Houdini, C4D, Katana).

Pack yer bags...

"Our commitment

such as Houdini, Katana and Cinema 4D. Autodesk will also continue to
support other renderers with products like 3ds Max and Maya."

Obviously 3rd party Soft support will dwindle but I'm sure AD aren't too
fussed about giving it a helping nudge over the edge.

Having no competing product didn't stop them from shutting XSI down.



I can't see autodesk killing off arnold as they have no competing  
products. Maybe the push towards cloud rendering will put off some

 Hi Arthur,

 Since I'm the developer of HtoA, that was my first question when we
 got briefed by Marc Stevens of Autodesk when we got disclosed, and his
 answer was a clear yes. They want more people to use Arnold, on any
 platform.

 Thus the development for the non-Autodesk products will continue as
 well (Houdini, C4D, Katana).

RE: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

Does (did) solid angles still support Softimage?  Would AutoDesk continue 
support on their dead product?

What it definitely means is that there will be a 3dsmax version.

I think the people who are more worried will be Vray and Mental ray. Arnold is 
dependable to teach to students,  so there’s a chance of really growing the

Since I'm the developer of HtoA, that was my first question when we got briefed

Thus the development for the non-Autodesk products will continue as well

RE: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

What it definitely means is that there will be a 3dsmax version.

I think the people who are more worried will be Vray and Mental ray. Arnold is 
dependable to teach to students,  so there’s a chance of really growing the 
userbase.

It is not matter of killing or not. AD is PLAGUE in industry.

Anyone remember Lagoa for Softimage!
What happened, AD bought it, implemented and never touched again. All
development dead in the water.
Same goes not only for whole packages but for parts of it as well.

I had completely forgotten about UV to location, thanks for the heads-up
about its issues!



I do have to admit a mistake here. I was only playing with Constrain to
Curve (Path) not (Param). The latter does not have the constrained object
sliding around the relative length, so I can work with it!
One issue with Curve constrain is the Up-Vector is not great. So I went
with two parallel lofted curves and Constrain to Surface which give me a
good sense of orientation: http://i.imgur.com/QukQbIC.png even though the
tangent is not as good as the curve constrain. Only used ICE to get the
Scale from the CPS to the deformers.




This chain will have multiple purposes for me from tail to tentacle
Though the only thing I'm missing is an IK/FK switch solution that allows
me to pose in IK and switch/bake keys into FK. I guess I'll just go with FK
for now.

Thanks!

Re: Re: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

they'll surely continue Arnold, but not on the same pace I'd say.

and probably end up StoA.

what a horrible news.

 Hi Arthur,

 Since I'm the developer of HtoA, that was my first question when we got
 briefed by Marc Stevens of Autodesk when we got disclosed, and his answer
 was a clear yes. They want more people to use Arnold, on any platform.

 Thus the development for the non-Autodesk products will continue as
 well (Houdini, C4D, Katana).

 I hope that will be something good this time, but I can't avoid to feel an

not try to kill Arnold.

Re: Re: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

I can't see autodesk killing off arnold as they have no competing products.
Maybe the push towards cloud rendering will put off some customers though.

A lot of studios and freelancers asked what will happen to Softimage and
they were reassured that future is bright.
We all know what happened then.

Re: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

[Mirko Jankovic]

“*As with other acquisitions, we are committed to supporting third party
applications* with Arnold,” explains Bradshaw. “Our goal is to improve
customers’ collaboration, creativity, productivity and efficiency across
their entire pipeline, regardless of the tools they use.”

hahahahahaha like we haven't heard that before.

Re: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

[Stefan Kubicek]

I think it's actually "Fuck you Marcos".
To be fair, I don't know anything about the financial structure of Solid  
Angle, it might not have been Mr. Fajardo's sole decision to sell his life  
achievement, hence a general "FUCK YOU SOLID ANGLE" might be more  
appropriate.


Arnold out of the way means good news for Redhsift?



FUCK YOU AUTODESK.

Re: Autodesk acquires Solid Angle

[Mirko Jankovic]

After buying Softimage:
"Petit commented: “As we have demonstrated since the acquisition of Alias
in 2006, we’re committed to giving our customers choice when it comes to
their 3D tools. We plan to maintain and grow the Softimage product line,
and through Autodesk FBX provide better interoperability between Softimage
products, 3ds Max and Autodesk Maya. FBX also provides interoperability
between Softimage products and our specialized applications such as
Autodesk Mudbox, Autodesk MotionBuilder, Autodesk ImageModeler and Autodesk
Stitcher, as well as numerous third-party applications.”

Petit concluded: “At Autodesk, we care deeply about 3D technology; we know
users invest a lot of time and energy into mastering their favorite 3D
product. To all 3D artists out there, I want to tell you that we understand
your passion for the creative tools you use daily, and that with Autodesk,
you can choose your passion.”


Now figure it out for yourself how much their statements have meaning at
all.

Ideas and workflows from Softimage simply doesn't work inside maya because it 
is wrong environment completely. 
You can;t get same workflow in something that was sometimes design in 
completely different logic in mind... and now even worse as it become this huge 
Frankenstein of misc workflows and ideas from all the purchased software and 
cramped in it.. pieces that by itself are maybe even good but when crammed 
together they simply don't talk to each other. 
Practically you have full house of workers that don;t talk to each other or

Subject: Re: New render layers in maya

Seems just like another attempt to push something that is not design with Maya 
nature at all and crammed it inside...
Ideas and workflows from Softimage simply doesn't work inside maya because it 
is wrong environment completely. 
You can;t get same workflow in something that was sometimes design in 
completely different logic in mind... and now even worse as it become this huge 
Frankenstein of misc workflows and ideas from all the purchased software and 
cramped in it.. pieces that by itself are maybe even good but when crammed 
together they simply don't talk to each other. 
Practically you have full house of workers that don;t talk to each other or 
understand each other and trying to make a building...

Well, I think we all decided a long time ago Maya will never be as 
efficient as Softimage. UI wise or workflow wise. ;-)
Like I said, I glanced over it, will have to do a bit more digging when 
I have the time.

Re: New render layers in maya

[Rob Wuijster]

Got that tip from a friend of mine yesterday.
It has a very Passes/Partitions/Overrides feel to it. From the quikc 
glance, it looks like rendering will become a lot easier to handle from 
now on.


Hopefully they tweaked the entire rendering pipeline as well. Batch 
render can still be a pain in the behind at times.


cheers!
