Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Lol .. thankfully you didn't buy it before the price cut.
I think all the modules were around 50 000$ ... or something like it. (Don't remember the real price)

I would get complete if it had the Fur plug-ins but, but man, just for that alone is $5000 more for just a few more bells and Whistles.user added image

My opinion. I say little upgrades should be downloaded able for free. Say you have 5. They update the way some editers work, and a few of the Dynamics rules. Dont put out Maya 6, its not a big enough change. Just go hey, those of you who have 5, download this. (BTW: Those changes are made up)

Now, if they totaly rework half the program, or add soemthing that you must change something in the frame of the program, then put out a new version. But they must relise, the more new goodies they put in, the more likly I am to buy it. Hell, give a free download, and make the DL put alot of bugs in the proggy. Just so you can say that the new version fixes 1.8 billion glitchs. LOL

Unless I see alot of big differences, im not buying Photoshop 8. Same with Maya.

Photoshop 8 would be cool... As soon as they release it :O
There is so many new things they could add to the program, would be a worthwhile investment... Also... it's not like it costs that much anyway...

I'd rather they work on making them cheaper, not better user added image
