*RenderPass management *
(has it's flaws - but still is miles ahead of the other alternatives out
there)
*Construction Stack concept*
*ICE*
(not only for any kind of simulation, but also as a "swiss army knife" for
rigging, prototyping, custom deformers, instancing/scattering/ ...)
*unified and (fairly) non-destructive workflow *
(everything sort of works the same way, with the same interaction
philosophy, in any order, ...)
*Multi Explorer/PPG concept *
(you can manipulate many PPGs of the same kind in Multi Mode, they can be
locked or kept live, you can have multiple Explorers open showing the same
dataset but with different filters, ... )
*object oriented SDK shared between Python and C++*
(which makes it possible to "translate" tools prototyped in Python to C++
relatively easy)
*Proxy Parameters*
And yeah I know, that's more than 5... Sorry for rebelling... :)
