*Migrate to Max or Maya* *The official advice for Softimage users – or Jigsaw24′s take on it – seems to be ‘jump ship before it sinks’. * Anyone with a current subscription will be able to migrate to a bundle package of Softimage plus either 3ds Max or Maya when the 2015 product releases ship later this year. According to Jigsaw, Autodesk intends to “start adding Softimage’s functionality into the Entertainment Creation Suites” – presumably making it a legacy component in the same way that Toxik became Autodesk Composite. We’ve contacted Autodesk for an official confirmation or denial, and we’ll update when we hear back. For the minute, we’ve attached a full screenshot of Jigsaw24′s original webpage below. -------------------------------------------------------------- Official advice of Softiamge users????????????????? 2014-03-04 10:15 GMT-06:00 Stephen Davidson <[email protected]>: > http://www.cgchannel.com/2014/03/autodesk-to-retire-softimage/ > > -- > > Best Regards, > * Stephen P.
