I was working with Max years ago. And I liked the operator stack somehow. But back then it was just way to slow. How's the general operator speed now ? They did a looot in the viewport over the years but the operators themself were still slow when I stopped using it. 2015-04-13 17:52 GMT+0

I've been working in Max now since around the time that Soft went end of life. It's not that bad. I'd say once I day I shake my head at something and other days I'm surprised how easy some things are? The UI does feel like it's been put together with years and years of layers of dirty tape. Howeve

There's no need to trash 3dsmax, this new version finally bring something interesting for their users. Of course there's a long way to go yet, but this is definitely a step forward.

The Max Creation Graph/ICE thingamajig is one thing, if the XRef improvements are actually awesome (i.e. being able to animate attributes on referenced scenes), then it would actually be a super-compelling reason to upgrade imho. I'm in the middle of fretting about writing my own referencing s

I have to admit to never having got the hang of MAX. I produced work professionally with Soft, LW, XSI, Maya, Houdini... MAX I never got, it's like it was made for some other species than humans AFAIC. If MAX tastes like anything, I imagine it would taste like boiled broccoli left in the sun for a
