Re: Blackmagic Fusion 7 is released as PRO and free version

I´m also a longtime Fusion user and seeing the new Blackmagic website is already a great change to eyeon Days. The marketing under eyeon was the worst thing. And now Davinci for free, Fusion for free its amazing. You can equip a hole Studio at a very low cost. Use the Free seats as much as you like ...

Re: Autodesk going all rental?

A quote from the link "The number of customers that are one to five releases back on our software stays relatively consistent year after year after year," he said. They are real customers …. They just happen to purchase from us perpetual licenses on an infrequent basis because they can. T...

Re: SOFTIMAGE TO MUDBOX pipeline

If changing units in mudbox isn´t enough, I normally just scale my models up by 10 or more after importing into Mudbox. (for very small object, bolts screws etc) For texture, normal maps etc it doesn´t matter anyway and if I export a mesh back to SI I just have to remember to but the scale in Mudbox...

Re: What if Softimage died?

Dont you guy´s think its a bit to early to jump ship. I mean If 2015 Is really the last Version before SI is at it´s EOL, you still got 1 year before the 2016 line will be out.

Re: What if Softimage died?

Not everywhere you got 20 TD´s, a modeling department, Animation dep, lighting dep and so on, and be able to use the tool that fits best,and if you dont got it, buy it. Thats not an option. I use Softimage on a daily basis for commercials, Flyers,M...
