I think at this point I will be using XSI for ICE power and maybe some
things I might be able to do quicker there than in Maya.  But I am starting
to get a bit rusty with XSI so I feel I need to go in there and use it on a
project or 2 to fire up the old muscle memory.

Last Install of XSI ( I think) Should I use 2014 sp2 or 2015

[F Sanchez]

I Just purchased a super PC from Boxx.  An upgrade that has been 10 years
to long.  This may be my last install of XSI I have a  permanent license.
I remember 2014 sp 2 as being pretty stable. Not sure if 2015 was stable. I
don't think I have sp2.   If you are still working on XSI which version are
you using the most?
Thanks

Re: The Softimage mailing list

[F Sanchez]

I have had many good and joyful memories using soft. I also have some life
saving moments here on the group. I guess all things change but it is sad
to let go. I will still be a pert of whatever group this transforms into.

 I never used google groups but I think it will be accessible the same

Maya Manipulators How to keep them in the vieport.

[F Sanchez]

I would like to keep the manipulator always visible even if I zoom in on
something.  How do I do this in Maya? I know there must be a way. I just
cant find any mention of this. Anyone?

 I was trying to find one of those Autodesk features demoing it and all
 I could find was XSI vids and a thread on CGTalk from 2004 saying it was

 only 12 years to catch up, don't lose hope, riggers in the other thread.

Re: So.. Maya rigging is still a thing...

[F Sanchez]

Its 2016 already. Is there no other app that will ever take the place of
Maya? (Besides a future resurrection of Softimage which is not going to
happen. ) Sure I can use XSI when working on my own but if you need to work
on site it will now have to be Maya from now on. :(

 I'm glad you are liking your new modeling tools, Eugene. However I
 believe that it is important to make the distinction that it is not about
 the confusion in Maya rigging--at least not for me; I do not find Maya
 confusing at all. What the huge issue with Maya is that its limited rigging
 tool-set combined with archaic workflow make the task of rigging drudgery.*
 Drudgery* is the key word more than confusion. I have made many
 character rigs in Maya over the past fifteen-plus years and Maya still
 sucks at it.
