Again as I have said separating them out into there own programs only hurts the game industry as MODELING is only a small part of the game industry. If you have noticed in the current trended (of good games at least) Animation is playing a MUCH bigger role then it ever has in the past. Studios are using Animation in tandem…
Yes, we intend to share some of the results. We'll want to get this widely publicised first to make sure we have voices coming in from everywhere. I'm thinking we'll wait at least 3 weeks until sharing results. re: start up times Thanks for the good vibes around 2011. If you saw our XBR presentation, then you know we have…
My biggest gripe with max is it's viewport navigation, and UV tools. Maya is SO much nicer in those regards. But the biggest thing (which I don't think is fixable) is the entire 'frankenstein' nature of the program.

I cannot even imagine how tricky it is to please everybody with something like Max hehe. The app is so big, and there are so many different user profiles. Around…
100% agree. Can't speak for Softimage since I've barely used it but I've been using Max/Maya for a good 5 years or so and a Max/Maya powerhouse app would be plain awesome. So awesome in fact that even if Autodesk added the two RRP's together and made it cost like $10k, I'd still buy it (probably only once, and never…
Autocon, forgive me if I have misunderstood both your posts but it reads to me that you've misinterpreted the suggestion twice now. The suggestion has never been to separate the apps, kill any off, force people to choose one app or anything of the sort. The suggestion is to create one 'Super App' which combines the…
@creationtwentytwo - I was responding to almighty_gir who if you read his posts he is clearly stating to seperate them out by game industry app, film app and animation app. The whole one super app idea is something that will never happen. For 2 large reasons. 1. Money - Autodesk makes a ton of money on having different…
