i kind of feel like that with quite a few apps :pMoreover, because of our fast development, it's not always clear to new users whether they are trying to use something that's brilliant or is still half working, or simply broken by design!
With regards to customer satisfaction to updates.... Not a comparision of the softwares themselves.Originally posted by iamcreasy
Actually the thing that i tried to focus is..........BLENDER the free stuff (which no doubt can produce stunning result, and many companies are using it for their product visualization) goes over MAYA(which is 5000$ stuff)...AMAZING!
i wouldn't go that far if what you say is what i thinkOriginally posted by iamcreasy
After watching the demo reel and getting a glimpse of it's PROCEDURAL work flow and after watching the free tutorials(though they are very old now) any 3d artist would be bound to say "i wish i started my 3d life with it".
It's not a matter of not liking maya - everyone on this board loves maya I'm sure. But it is about taking what you need from each package to create a project, working through several in a pipeline if necessary.Originally posted by tweetytunes
well people can bitch and moan all they like - I love Maya and I`m sticking with it. Apart from the odd tweak here and there and the whole N-Everything - its not changed much since 7 and I like it that way - who wants to learn a new app from scratch.
no what I`m saying is that the update that maya has done over the years really has not effected me in anyway. Maya is great that apart from photoshop you really don`t need any other piece of software to get great results. I was reading the other day that a 3 man team in japan have just finished a 2 hours fully cg film using Maya 6.5 and people are saying it looks just as good as Advent children even though maya 6.5 came out how long ago.Originally posted by gubar
