Basically any non-Autodesk product will do. I'm looking into Houdini right now as they've made a ton of improvements in the past couple of releases. I gave Fabric Engine a short run a while back, but due to it's lack of maturity and lack of features relevant to my work, I had to let it go. I may revisit it in the future.
In big picture terms, I'm focused more on writing code than using 3D apps these days. Node interfaces have their advantages in production work, but I tend to find myself in situations where I need new functionality of the application as a whole, not just new exposed features within it's already defined framework.

We haven't chatted in ages, and I wanted to see who I could dig up out of the caves with a little reminiscence about the good old days. I found this thread <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/xsi_list/nmus1TnkON8> from the Friday Flashback archives and it reminded me of a time when an XSI TD had amazing power for creative problem solving at his fingertips. Even the drudge work of shot tech support had, for a time, become fun again, when you could cook up something clever through sheer experimentation (and a spoonful of stubbornness). Having been out of the loop long enough now, just curious where everyone has gone to find that same kind of satisfaction? What goodies has the industry offered to empower the user? -B ------ Softimage Mailing List. To unsubscribe, send a mail to [email protected] with "unsubscribe" in the subject, and reply to confirm.
