Hey, just curious here, since i’m ready loads of posts that speaks about SI2015 being last release. Where did this info spilled from? Cause the usual doom and gloom is like “SI gonna be dead soon”, but apparently 2015 looks to be the last one by some “inside” people.
Was just wondering if there was more than a rumor.
Thanks

Softimage for me will be dead the time I will stop using it.
Don't know why is the rush to switch if you have your own clients, your own
projects and you have been delivering amazing work done with Softimage.
The Maya 2015 won't be better than Softimage to get the job done.
So because SI 2015 unoficially yet is the latest version you are going to run
to other options while you can still deliver superb work?
The clients don't care if you made it with paintbrush as long as they are
satisfied with the end result.

If you are moving a team from SI to Maya, you are going to need to create a
tone of scripts to improve functionality, last place i was in they proudly
showed off their modeling script "ow look at these !" and "won't these make
your life so much easier ?!" not really cause all those scripts where already a
given in SI.

trust me there is no tutorial that can help with frustration that you
will have to deal with .... good luck. I know that I'm staying with SI for
years to come.
Zombies are popular anyway so why not SI Zombie edition too :)

What are the best resources for migration, especially to Maya,
for long time Softimage users. Has anyone done the Maya training from Digital
Tutors, Lynda, Gnome, fxphd? Which is considered better for those of us with
years of production experience? Does anyone know of any gem video's (for
example: a Softimage video I always recommend for anyone wanting to learn ICE
is the Brad's Ice: An Artist Tour). What are the best training resources out
there?
