Dunno.. Depending on the pricing I think I'd be alright with it. Not owning permanent licenses sucks but at least with the adobe cloud it's cheap. Autodesks pricing is another story entirely.
Yeah those are my thoughts. This is mainly about pricing for me now. If they keep Modo the same price or reduce it. I'll be happy. Autodesk would probably make you sell a kidney to get it.
*sighs* Modo going CC would pretty much kill it's userbase, especially if Adobe forced you to spend about $50 a month, only to never develop it, while it would be better than Autodesk getting their hands on it, The Foundry's product line going into the cloud would still be bad. Subscription only price models were the main…
Assuming Modo's dev team stays on and they don't do what Autodesk did to mudbox (buy it out and essentially stop developing it), I would jump for joy if Modo was included in the $50/m CC, or the $20/m per app cloud subscription.
Yeah, but these things are hard to foresee aren't they ? Mudbox was such a weird example of that, with the app getting a big overhaul at the time of the Autodesk switch for the 2009 release ... only leading to a very slow development pace down the line. Now maybe the yearly release cycle that Autodesk is still forcing on…
As someone who holds a CC subscription, I would love it if Adobe picked the Foundry's software up and added it to the CC roster. Adobe getting into 3D is the only thing I can think of that might force Autodesk to improve its pricing model. That said, I could also see this backfiring horribly.
As someone who uses Photoshop and Modo every day, I couldn't disagree more. I absolutely hate the way Adobe's products have completely stagnated over the past decade, and there's nothing I can imagine that could be worse for the film and game industries than having Adobe and Autodesk vying for control of the market.…
I'mma gonna just quote this sentence any time i'm talking about nuke to anyone ever. Top Class reporting. I agree adobe have earned their reputation for being innovation-averse, which is the exact opposite of the foundry, a merger would worry me. Much better id have thought to get into bed with Side FX Software. the…
