Amen to that!
I'm doing my own projects and my clients could not care less what program their pictures were made in. I could use Maya
but that would mean I'd make 30% less profit. Why would I want to do that? As long as XSI remains that much ahead in the bread and butter disciplines I will continue to use it. Why waste money?
The clients don't care if you made it with paintbrush as long as they are satisfied with the end result.So because SI 2015 unoficially yet is the latest version you are going to run to other options while you can still deliver superb work?The Maya 2015 won't be better than Softimage to get the job done.Softimage for me will be dead the time I will stop using it.Don't know why is the rush to switch if you have your own clients, your own projects and you have been delivering amazing work done with Softimage.
2014-02-27 15:24 GMT-06:00 Sebastien Sterling <[email protected]>:If you are moving a team from SI to Maya, you are going to need to create a tone of scripts to improve functionality, last place i was in they proudly showed off their modeling script "ow look at these !" and "won't these make your life so much easier ?!" not really cause all those scripts where already a given in SI.

I'm separating this out from the "upgrade policy" thread and would like to keep it some what on topic as I am sure there will be plenty of artists in the coming months asking the same questions. Please start a new thread to talk about the politics.
What are the best resources for migration, especially to Maya, for long time Softimage users. Has anyone done the Maya training from Digital Tutors, Lynda, Gnome, fxphd? Which is considered better for those of us with years of production experience? Does anyone know of any gem video's (for example: a Softimage video I always recommend for anyone wanting to learn ICE is the Brad's Ice: An Artist Tour). What are the best training resources out there?
