Softimage was going to be available via the free software student portal
for another year.
Bend in Softimage doesn't behave alike in other packages. That's fine for
modeling and actually gives more options, but I was needing it act as the
other bends.
This is how I used ICE to get there. Nothing too fancy :P

Interesting !
Just in case this https://vimeo.com/groups/ice/videos/28489254
is a full ice bending solution. And it works beautifully also.

Hi all,
Whats the most flexible method for creating a curtain closing animation?
Something like the curtain closing in this (
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8KuKH6oixo)
but not overlapping as it closes and without the ribbons.
TIA for your suggestions.
Hi Jon
I figured as such. That’s why I have been trying to get something official from
either Maurice or Steve as it has rather big implications for the edu sector.
Kind regards
