I didn't know for Max but that's a bit of a surprise. While gathering informations to learn Houdini, I found "soup" for Maya that is a pure copy of some attribute behavior in Houdini. I know there are other examples. It's so obvious that I wonder if it is legal. But what hurt my balls is that feeling that SI was abandonned years ago (remember when they fire the xsi crew (Guillaume, ...) and how many improvements we missed since then. Specialy imho in the ice modeling field that has its developpement brutaly stopped. I'm still amazed by how ice brillantely exposed all the "inner" SI. Specialy all the array ice node and it was never convoluted. I'm digging houdini, but although it has more brutal power, it is way more convoluted.
