I´m doing a lot pf poly modeling work in Maya 2016 atm and am
happy to benefit from the adaption/porting/inspiration taken from
Softimage and it´s developers for ways of improving Maya´s modeling.
The Maya 2016 release (latest SP) can be modeled with reasonably well.
I still miss niceties from Softimage in terms of tweak mode or surface
sliding
implementation details or even more ways of working with pivots but already,
the stuff that has been brought from Softimage (including the guys) is
well appreciated!
Thanks. It really helps.

If it makes anyone feel better, I harass my colleagues here about how
we did things in Softimage to the point of turning it into a running
joke where I preface meetings by saying "as you know, I must legally
mention Softimage twice a day..." And although I meant that as an
annoying self-deprecating joke people wish I would quit doing, there
is statistical evidence that suggest that I do indeed mention it twice
a day on average. (There is further statistical evidence that nobody
thinks that joke is funny) This has to do with the fact that that
desktop UI work is all very similar between apps and we dtid
everything XSI, and I'm working next to my XSI UI colleague Sean.
That said, the XSI UI will forever be unique and the result of an
architecture and UI working together in a way that can't be replicated
anywhere.
