Which studios? AFAIK most still use maya. At the end of the day a cheap cut down version of XSI isnt going to convince any major studio to redevelop their 5 year old maya pipeline i think it's great for home users but for studios I dont think it's that big a dealI am wondering how many people are tempted by it. I know Maya is the market leader, but XSI seems to be the in the No.1 spot with studios at the moment so I am wondering what effect this will have.
Aggh! Now that's interesting. I keep reading that Softimage is taking over in the worlds 3D studios. I believe you Alan - from the horse's mouth so to speak.Which studios? AFAIK most still use maya.
I think the idea is more people will buy it at that price to learn it and thus there will be a larger pool of people out there who have XSI experience. Then studios who do use XSI instead of Maya or are thinking of changing (you can answer that bit Alan) have a larger pool of XSI users to choose from.i think it's great for home users but for studios I dont think it's that big a deal
No, no, no better than that, they have taken out the button which says press this to instantly produce in 3-D on your computer what's in your head...:laugh:What kind of things has been stripped from the cheapo version? File -> Save?
