being able to run multiple older versions of max is a subscription benefit. http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/pc/index?id=13571542&siteID=123112 I'd go for 2011 myself. A big issue for staying with older versions is plugin compatibility which isn't an issue in this case as plugins for 2010 work on 2011. 2011 also saves…
Interesting. Hadn't heard but I can definitely get some inside info tommorow. They look like they could use a couple of dollars! This line scares me: "Some workers said the company is trying to shave costs by reducing salaries and benefits and by getting rid of older, higher-earning employees." What with EA announcing a…
I've actually been meaning to start a discussion on a similar note. Whatever happened to the concept of a personal website in this community? It probably has a lot to do with the fact everyone is getting older and working professionally in the same field that was once just a hobby... I just really liked some of the more…

For the most part it wasn't an issue but I do feel like I was taken less seriously by the older senior staff because of my age. And I think I was also passed over for a promotion because of it (though maybe that's just…
I think you can get hired at all ages. but there might be that stigma of they may think that the older you are, the better they expect you to be. It's also a matter of what you can handle in your life. If doing a career jump will be doable, knowing that you`ll be moving back into a junior job / wage. Studios won't hand you…
I think 2 members of his family where hip to his game. They made a point of the wife looking up in that general direction and she loses her smile, then tries to recover. One of the older sons, same thing, "oh, dads heading out again". He was a bit older than I expected. Watching it again the guy being stretched on the rack…
There was a method for importing new Maya version scenes into an older Maya by using Maya´s ASCII scene file format and edit by hand, which I tried successful with older Maya versions, don´t know if it still works with 8.5 and 6.5. If you want to try it you have to save the scene in Maya 8.5 as a MA file (Maya ASCII), open…
