Sorry...can't resist. Nasty rumor going around that Soft will be done within the next year. I'm just hearing this from a few NYC peeps. I personally find it odd especially since we know there's a beta program running now and that a lot of places still rely on it, especially ICE.
I WOULD NOT be surprised at all if development stopped within a year or two and it was just a "left as it is" product but I don't see how or why the door would be slammed shut in anyone's face. I doubt anyone can "confirm" this rumor but curious what others thoughts are. I'm looking to learn more Houdini and C4D for the volume of work but have no desire to use antiquated and archaic platforms like Maya and Max to be honest. Regardless, its tragic to see Soft slowing down and how it never managed to take over as the #1 option years ago. It really is the best but a few limitations, bad timing and bad marketing didn't do it any favors. The community, addons, plugins and contributions though are incredible and I think thats the part I would miss the most. ....and discuss Kris
