The thing is, like VHS, AutoCAD became a standard.
Nowadays there are plenty CAD applications out there running circles
around AutoCAD.....

Yes, AD should have stuck to the only thing they have ever understood.
CAD. They always were and will always be a CAD company.

Agree,personal attacks to someone who's not responsable of the
entire situation is just wrong
I can understand how pissed off you are (and here a lot of people
are pissed off) but right now this ia the situation,so better deal
with it or be angry for the next two years
AD showed that they rather push their "old" softwares instead of
Softimage,and we all know how advanced this software is (not for
everything,but we all know it )
I do not want anyone to loose their job,but in this case I really
hope that AD will receive a huge hit in subscriptions and l'ora of
developers switch to other companies,because this is a really
really bad decision
I hoped that they would keep up Softimage at least as a VFX tool
(because of ICE) and push it for game development (which is widely
used inside big game developers ),but no,they "create" Maya Lite
for that....while Softimage (since release 7?) have already lots
of tools for game development....
Cheers AD CEOs, you fucked it up big time

Ok, listen to your own bullshit:
"The first is to flatly call out that the rumor that the eol
of Softimage and 3dsmax is upon us is totally false."
"Cory Mogk is now also responsible for Softimage and we have
been working with the team on the future of the product with
lots of key customers."
"We understand people make their living from this software and
that they make huge decisions about their projects and
companies and we take that responsibility very seriously."
"Again the door is open to contact us or challenge us. Please
let everyone you know their products are safe."
So today, we can safely say you are a lying piece of shit. You
have no dignity, you have no character, and you have no word.
I can't imagine any developer feeling any pride anymore
working for you or this fucked up company. What you have done
here and HOW you've done it, is irreparable and you and your
company is from now on going downhill. You expect anybody to
ever trust you or your company again? Is that worth anything
for a business? It's worth everything.
Nobody finds it in the least suspicious why SI was killed now?
When the whole community around SI and the nr of independent
developers working developing tools for it was at an all time
high???
I don't know when you lost your balls and your word Mr.
Vienneau, but "good luck" regaining both.
Piece of shit.

While Dan's heart is breaking (and so is mine), I still
have (at least) one nagging question:
Clearly this has been under discussion for a while at
Autodesk, so why were the following comments
from September 5th of 2012 made:
*"The rumor that the EOL of Softimage and 3DS Max is upon
us is totally false."*
So, if I understand this correctly, what I get out of it
is that when Autodesk assures customers that their product
is not on the chopping block,
that statement is really only good for about a year and a
half (less if you take into account that this EOL must
have been decided a while back).
That doesn't imbue anyone with much confidence. I am not a
3DS Max user, but if I was, I think I'd be worried, and
would take any Autodesk assurances that there was no
reason to worry
with a very large grain of salt.
Can someone please, finally, address this?
Thank you

Hi everyone,
I just want to let you know there are people from
the maya dev and pm teams coming online to this
