I even remember following Jeremy Birn's SCM tutorials back in the day. Here's another flashback for you:

Not as robust as XSI, but it had one.

How times have changed... would you call the Nurbs tools "extensive" these days? Definite 'no' for Nurbs curves anyway... still, they are traditionally not taken into account as a powerful asset for polygon modeling, which they are (or could be). ------ Originalnachricht ------ Von: "Rob Wuijster" <[email protected]<javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','[email protected]');>> An: [email protected]<javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','[email protected]');> Gesendet: 21.02.2014 18:38:02 Betreff: Re: Friday Flashback #160 That's a line I haven't seen in a long, long time... ;-) "The XSI Interface with an imported polygonal model from Softimage 3D."

For years those three little syllables rolled off the tongues of 3D artists everywhere with wonder. But then something happened. 3D Studio became 3D Studio Max. PowerAnimator became Maya. And Softimage ... well, Softimage remained the same. -- Gamasutra, 2001 http://wp.me/powV4-2Z8 No virus found in this message.
