Thanks Ronald. Too bad developers are only aiming at Maya and Max from AD "suite". I admire the job that independent developers are putting into this. I think I'll pass until the viewport is integrated in Softimage. Hope it will not take as long as V-ray...
Even that Maxwell for rendering uses it's own. The workflow beween Softimage and Maxwell is great with Fire. No fooling around or tweaking things outside the software. I hope that Next Limit will add the GPU processing and perhaps it will be as fast as Octane. 2013/2/13 Toonafish <ron...@toonafish.nl> > Nope, this is the best there is for SI at the moment as far as I know. > > - Ronald > > > On 2/13/2013 17:14, Emilio Hernandez wrote: > > Is the interactive window in softimage plugin available yet?
