RE: Softimage transition webinar is starting in 10 minutes
I was pretty disappointed with the BiFrost demo. why was here no real time preview? The sending of data from Maya to BiFrost seemed clunky and something from the late 90's, I have no idea who the tool is aimed at - I don't know any vfx artists who, whilst trying to choreograph his fx shot, starts playing around with some look Dev in the background whist the sim caches. What a really weird workflow - they have seen other apps such as Houdini and Realflow do this right (and pretty much in real time)?

Re: Softimage transition webinar is starting in 10 minutes

Re: Softimage transition webinar is starting in 10 minutes
After looking at the bifrost demo I have to say I am disappointed as well, maybe because the demo doesn't really comply with my normal fx workflow. It feels like: Lets get working with bifrost and start caching straight away! wait a sec, I haven't even starting with my sim and I am already caching?. Having the thing caching in the background is almost totally pointless if the SIM is not doing the right thing in the first place. I can spend days in ICE before even considering caching.

Re: Softimage transition webinar is starting in 10 minutes
I have no doubt the effort into Maya will be positive, finally seems they have taken development seriously in Maya after years of stagnation, I would happily move to Maya if they had ICE ready to go, the interface fully revamped to something modern from the workflow point of view as well as graphical point of view and of course, the miriad of things we use every single day in Softimage.

Re: Softimage transition webinar is starting in 10 minutes
After watching the whole video of the live session I recommend watching this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-4JpeSF_2g This is a hard pill to swallow Autodesk… really hard. Specially when you learn Bifrost is an external engine, something you could plug very easily into ICE and will be truly spectacular, not what I just watched..

The one constant in both videos is notable also, of course... -- Leendert A. Hartog – Softimage hobbyist AKA Hirazi Blue – Administrator @, NOT the owner of si-community.com

Re: Softimage transition webinar is starting in 10 minutes
Thanks Ciaran, seems quite nice so far! I guess it's really the hundreds of little things I'll miss in the end. For instance I've been doing some tutorials on material editing this morning and sorely missed the ability to Middle-click drag to move branches around the SHOP editor. Just one of many little things... I'm committed to Houdini for the long haul though in one shape or another, for sure.

The guy was talking about a node-based editor similar to ICE ( in the future or could he show us something? ), but based on the video is just particles simulated ( externally ) and a couple of deformers for them...and again, its just fluid simulation...what else? what other then fluid simulation? The node editor workflow not there in Maya 2015, this one is focused on getting the new fluid solvers and viewport visualization into the hands of users. There was a glimpse of the node editor in the siggraph tech demo, at around 8 minutes here http://tinyurl.com/nsswz4n It's not a merely a particle sim, you can read more about fluid tech : https://www.fxguide.com/featured/the-science-of-fluid-sims/ Bifrost is new work from Robert Bridson mentioned in that article And really, I thought Bifrost was going to be integrated into Maya...but I cannot find any information on that as wellso...is it going to be, as Gerbrand was asking, a standalone replacement fo Softimage VFX tools which you need to pay for? it's in Maya 2015. All those videos were Maya 2015 launch videos.

Thank you for the link Marc. I’m finally in the acceptance stage of grief and am resigning myself to using Maya, learning Houdini and continuing to use Softimage as is. I hope they show of some of the upcoming Maya “Humanization” plans (not just shove ICE into maya). Again, best of luck to all Softimage users out there, but this just fucking sucks… And though this hurts me, best of luck to Autodesk as well too.

Thanks for the heads up Jordi. I'm in Turkey at the moment so I won't be able to make it. If I'd had a bit more notice I might have flown over for it.
