I personally don't ever see Houdini filling the Softimage void. The engineering that powers the Houdini user experience very often requires a totally different mindset for solving the same end goals. I think Houdini fills an ICE void, but the rounded user experience of Softimage is so much harder to fill. I agree the elegant “no-frills" workflow in Softimage is not going to be replicated anytime soon but there have been some truly remarkable efforts to get closer while keeping Houdini true to its procedural roots (which obviously is the right thing to do) Plus I think there are parts of the Houdini community that don't want to see the user experience to become more artist friendly. If Houdini is easier to drive, they might see their hourly rates drop! ;) Unless there is a major breakthrough in education I doubt a 20 years experience Houdini FXTD will have his rates go down… if anything is going to be the total opposite. My 2 cents jb On 2 May 2018 at 17:07, Laurence Dodd <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Its something I've been wondering too. I have been learning Houdini for the last year or more, and I really like it, but I am concerned I'm going to spend my working days doing vfx sims, which isn't my favourite. Houdini is still very much shoved into the vfx box. I dread the thought of being forced into Maya, stick with it and hope people start using it more generally, or start looking at C4D or something, eek.

Is there a company that uses Houdini this way? And if no, do you think a company will use Houdini this way someday? Thanks David ------ Softimage Mailing List.
