Moderator edit: McNistors post (quoted here in full) apparently got deleted,
either due to a technical glitch or due to a terrible mistake by me.
In both cases, but especially in the latter, I humbly apologize... - HB

Posted this before, on xsibase if I recall correctly, but here it is again:



I don't remember why I printscreened this, but it turns out it was a good idea.

Thanks for sharing this McNistor ... I remember when I used to enter Softimage.com 1x a day at the least to see news, etc, etc.

Man ... that picture brought me so nice memories that I've decided to keep in Softimage until it doesn't work anymore. It was way powerful back than and it's still now.

Back in 2004 when i switched from Maya to XSI

[csaez]

XSI 4 also came with an AMAZING training series, best unboxing experience ever!

[Rork]

Still have that box. That magnetic lid on the box was so cool. And that white/red really stood out on the desk

Will contribute in a few days, still recovering from a 3-day Maya gig LOL!!

I want to edit together all the best bits of Soft history and the people that made it for a single 4-5 min tribute vid... I have time on my hands today and this weekend but I need content, in decent resolution if possible. I tried using some web downloader/ converter but its files are unreadable by any editing/quicktime prog... and the res is awful on some.

Maybe we can all work together, share assets ect.... I could set up a drop box if people have videos they would like to contribute for this montage/tribute/final demo reel. There is a ton of footage out there....but gathering it would be more than chore. Quicktime with a high bit rate h264 would be ideal.

Let me know what you think.

Lovely work Owei ... simply amazing! I can't help much since I'm a beginner, but I've decided that I'll continue studying Softimage and use it for as long as I can. If that implies I can't get a job because I don't use Max or Maya, you know what? So be it ...
