I´ve worked quite a while on Softimage 2014Sp2 but didn´t use mental
ray, happily ran Redshift3D with it.
Mind you, I don´t do serious animation, fx or stuff like that, only
modeling, lighting and shading elements.
Can´t say how well 2014SP2 would hold up for massive scenes or in terms
of ICE functionality and such.
All in all, I liked it.
One thing to note, depending on the type of license, it may be better to
try and sync Maya and Softimage
versions, e.g. 2014 or 2015. In that case I would suggest Maya
2015Ext1SP6, as it brings some nice modeling
tool functionality, especially control for aligning an object pivot
while modeling.
The reason why to sync versions (depending n license) is that one then
can run softimage and maya simultaneously
from one license, e.g. 2015 where running a softimage 2014 and a maya
2015 wouldn´t work simultaneously off
the same license. I may be wrong. There´s been changes there and this
new subscribe, don´t own bs won´t make it easier---

If I remember correctly, SI shipping with ECS 2016 is SI 2015 SR2
(service release 2), which is the same as SP1 (apart from the name).
That is: No bug fixes or feature additions.
Sorry about. 2016 apparently is listed as part of the
Entertainment Creation Suite which we have. I’m guessing it is
probably the same as 2015 like what they did to Sketchbook last
year with 2013/2014? Does anyone know?

I’m running Soft 2014. I am experiencing a lot of render
crashes where Mental Ray is being purposely disabled by the
software.
I can update to:
2014 SP1
2014 SP2
2015
2016
Whats the best choice? What is everyone having the least
issues with?
Thanks
