Re: HairFarm expanding

HF offers an easy way to generate hair (one that has since been copied) as well as a masterful hair self intersection collision sim and it's own shader/render system. I believe as soon as you start simulating hair with external cloth sim you are not able to use masterful hair self intersection coll...

Re: HairFarm expanding

Hi plumMet! That was simulated with marvelous designer, not with hairfarm. And looks like a bunch of cloth stripes indeed. The guy says: "Длинные волосы (сделанные в 3ds Max плагином HairFarm) я симулировал с помощью ткани в Marvelous Designer 3", what means: "Long hairs (made in 3ds...

Re: HairFarm expanding

I am hoping for a C4D plugin but now with this Houdini bridge with C4D I guess a Houdini plugin would be good enough. I had been down on Houdini as an SI replacement and I still am but with this bridge it looks like I would be very happy to have a Houdini License in order to take advantage of it's p...

HairFarm expanding

I got an email from Cyber Radiance that they are expanding to new platforms and have asked Chase Bank for funding and Chase agreed to fund them as long as there was interest... An interesting concept.. sort of KickStarter meets banking. https://www.missionmainstreetgrants.com/b/69253 I wish it did n...

Re: Why is AD evil?

Before closing the thread, I just want to add, I dont see Autodesk more or less evil than Microsoft. Its just a bigger company than Maxon or The Foundry or SideFX, wich basically makes them an evil company in the eyes of the user. Im sure all the brands I mention buy plugins and technology all the ...

Re: Why is AD evil?

Well if Snowden is too controversial a topic then the first video link is not for you as it is much more core as related to understanding the problems of this world... And this you should never look at because it is even more core :P Moderator edit: I am tempted to close this thread: tone it down an...

Re: Why is AD evil?

The main problem with evil cooperations isn't their extremely capitalistic approach to everything they do, but the way the client/customer keeps on buying/renting their products despite ongoing abuse and insults by these companies. Why are corporations evil is a valid question, but only if accompan...

Re: Why is AD evil?

If you are lazy or too busy you can pick up the end of the video @ 1:15:00 and it will explain why the AD system is bad (though with little foundation to the problem as a whole)

If you care to counter the ideas of that last portion please be big enough to state that you only viewed that portion.

Why is AD evil?

I have been very outspoken about the horrible practices of AD and EULA's in general. The reason is I have a grasp of the bigger problem and it just happens to effect something that is very important to me (DCC) If anyone cares to understand what it is that is happening and why anyone should be upset...

Re: AD going Subscription only Q1 2016

I'm sure you are right :) I'm a mod on a financial forum myself and I have learned that the more authority you have the less you should say. You would never see George Lucas telling someone that their art sucks... I'm sure he thinks it from time to time but it would just be crushing for him to do so...
