Hi Daniel!!! First of all Welcome to this marvelous list!!! alot of key people in the industry are here!!... knowledge is shared all day long. You wont feel alone in the dark here for sure. Second: Softimage is the most intuitive 3D software around. Of course it is insane at rigging/character animation...But i must say that it's modeling tools, render passes, partions and overrides is by far the best too. Not to mention the render tree and ICE. And it also it supports Arnold and but also Vray if your goal is to use it. Also it got a nice viewcube!!! amazing! (the most anoying thing when you want to do a render Region in a viewport) .......disabled.....done. It's been almost 15 years i didnt touch Max...so i cant tell how much it evolved much.. but i can assure you that the render passes system in Soft is crazy cool. Maybe it should be a checking point for you before deciding to render from Max.. But you seem's already confortable with Max for your I/O wih houdini and all.... So.. up to you to test it! What are you using for data passing between Houdini and Max? .... Alembic? We dont use Facerobot here. We did some tests and it wasnt meant for our needs but maybe it will be more suitable for you with your mocap needs and workflow. third: best of luck for your project!! sly --
