Hey Seb and Andy, am fairly certain that Maurice here in this instance is not representing Autodesk and the really large IMO he started with means quite clearly 'in my opinion' :) I get what you are saying, but had enough AD bashing for now, 'fish in a barrel'... this thread was just getting interesting.
I just wanted to add (to the thread) that there has to be a clear difference between a beginners interpretation of 'worlflow' and ease of use and an experts with a muscle memory developed over time. I agree yes Softimage is/was easy to pick up in specific areas but what was important for me or a 'eureka' moment is when you can do 'stuff' without thinking about which key is pressed or where the button is on a menu or what it is called. flow. timelessness. in the moment. this is what an artist feels when they are painting, or I did when I used to, Softimage3D allowed me to experience that and so did XSI and is what am looking for next. :) On 1 April 2014 21:26, Sebastien Sterling <[email protected]> wrote: > They did it for SI 2013, and apparently to some extent for max this year, > and people kicked up shit cause those releases where feature light, and they > where quite right to do so. > > The thing is Fixing bugs and workflow are things that should really be > addressed incrementally, not just left to build up over time, and clients > are entitled to a functioning product experience, it should,'t even be > flaunted as a feature, you don't plan your budget around whether you will > have the money this year to fix bugs, you just fix the bugs, it's not > something that you should have to weight for pros and cons. > > Do you see modo, zBrush, Houdini, featuring Bug fixes among there new > features? > > > On 1 April 2014 21:14, Andy Goehler <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> Is that AD internal assumptions or have you ever approached your customers >> with the idea of a bug/usability fix upgrade?
