You can get in touch with CGS to get confirmation, but I suspect they are
streaming only.
They had several workshops truly crippled by piracy, and since they moved
to a new framework they actually did see a surge in sales and some
workshops haven't appeared on the piratesphere at all, so I doubt
Hi Jeremie,
1. Facial stuff would be awesome
2. We talked a year ago or so about sliding and volume preserving
stuffs, that would be fantastic too

Just give us proper SDK and let community do the rest.
Softimage currently does not fully support custom topology operators. The
problem is that any cluster or cluster property will not properly update
when a topology operator adds or removes points that belong to the cluster.

Oil on my fire.
That cluster SDK restriction really really sucks. It is the reason why
there never were any good topology/modelling addons from 3rd parties,
which leads to stagantion if there aren't any new factory modelling
tools brought also.
In 3ds max or Maya, all kinds of plugins are
Which is the best method to make totally randomly tumbling particles in
ICE? I am doing it with Spin Particle and altering the input axis with
Randomizing the rotation by cone. I am thinking I would like to turbulize
direction of the the vector instead of randomizing but have not cracked
that one
Is there a more elegant way to make particles tumble (flying slowly
through the air) totally randomly?
That's a little vague a description, but isn't *Turbulize Particle Velocity
* doing it for you? What more do you need?

Hello,
Sorry for the OT on my first post.
This is actually not my first post, but I've been missing from this list since
2002 or so :)
The company I work for, is looking for a 3D production studio, that has proven
experience doing and handling multi player capturing (football for instance),
Hi Morten,
The only issue with randomising or turbulising it, is that the particles will
look like they're being acted on by some sort of force because their angular
momentum is varying.
If you want something a little more like tumbling debris in zero gravity, then
during emission; store a

Thanks for the feedback guys... Well as I mentionned, it's not going to
happen any time soon.
I'll push to release a brand new tool this year that is also a rig builder
but slightly different from Gear.
There might be some facial stuff but not that much because it's just not
the way we are doing
Hey Oz.. Long time since I've seen your name pop up. Welcome back.
My colleague Al Macleod rolls his own Mocap Solution, If you're interested,
you can contact him through his website.
His solutions are for Maya, but he is a really talented guy, and may be
able to help you out.

What about the spin particle compound? It has a tumble function..

Any information out there?

All of the above.
There are parts of the core that are archaic and need to be updated. Other
areas perfectly fine but need somebody to step in and finish an implementation
of an existing feature.
In my opinion, the biggest problem is politics of getting the issues identified
to be addressed.
Thanks Raff. I understand about the problem with Piracy, but some of the
players these guys come up with are truly terrible and make it very
difficult to navigate the videos. That's my only real concern with
streaming, well, that and if my internet goes out in middle of me watching
the video.
