This is really sad...and a big punch in the workflow.. The irony is that i started doing 3d some 20 years ago with lightwave and an Amiga (another sad case), made the transition and started professionally with Softimage | 3D,now after commiting so much time and energy to this software which is my work tool in a daily basis,ADSK pulls the plug...and Lightwave still goes on...ironic.. If this is all true... will keep going with SI for some time,but eventually i'll have to transition... I think at the very least ADSK should have the decency to implement a transition help program to whoever want's to go to Maya or Max,in the form of license transfer or big discount to SI users...and produce especific online video tutorials helping SI users making that transistion...
let's see how it goes...

Now all my money is destinated to third party devs that will continue to support Softimage no matter what. Thanks ADSK for relieving the pain of being tied to a stupid and imbecil lack of vision and support. Welcome Fabric Engine, Mootz, Fuzz, Exocortex, Redshift, etc. You will still have my money with great pleasure. 2014-02-27 12:15 GMT-06:00 Kris Rivel < [email protected] > : Oh its real...its dead...going to be soon...I assure you. Wish we could just take the entire thing and privately take over. But no...all its secrets, power and coolness is locked tight in a damn Autodesk vault. Very sad.
