..I get your point...but that´s said much easier than to realized...
general interest in Softimage is falling rapidly..
Like I said, I have a big lag on sponsors right now, so it I need to
talk to other people than before.
I guess 1-2 presentations concerning "other" software would be OK, don´t
you think...?
Making of´s should stay Softimage "only" for this year..I hope ;)
By the way:
If anyone is interested in holding a presentation, feel free to get in
contact with me!!
cheers,
oli

I agree with Eric, although I won't be there.
It's going to be one of the last XSI meeting, let's make it XSI.

I have to agree here with Angus, the event would be more interesting
for attendees of it showed an open mind of what the future could look
like.
Approaching Fabric, Maxon and SideFX could be an interesting way of
putting some energy on the event.
I had a great time last year by the way, Oliver does a magnificent
job at putting this event together ;)

While I can understand Eric’s point of view the harsh fact is
this. Just like in the EDU sphere when it comes to funders
Softimage is EOL and by that virtue not worth putting money into.
There is a much better chance of getting funding by having a
more general event.
The question is wether this is acceptable of course ;)

Subject: Re: SOFTIMAGE|UeberTage 2014...any interest??
Ok you are right. Thought more of a "look here, what do you think
about that thing" sort of discussion. But religious "but my is
the best things" are surely not what we want (apart from SI, of
course :-) ) . Thought about keeping the uebertage alive in a
future with less and less SI-Userbase...
And Eric you know: I will use Softimage furthermore, cause at the
moment, I can´t see anything better or even equivalent. When I do
have to learn a new software it has to be really an improvement
to Softimage (from the small studio / allrounders view).
Ahem, I really would prefer to have a pure Softimage user
meeting and not some melting pot of X different 3D apps/users
and all the /my-software-is-the-best-because-blabla/ discussions.
Why is everybody talking about transitioning? Is anybody
seriously afraid that Softimage will be out-of-date by the end
of the month or what?
Honestly, if there are going to be Cinema 4D, Houdini, Max/Maya,
Blender, etc. presentations ... wtf? Don't get me wrong, I have
nothing against the apps nor their users, it's just that it's
seems wrong to me to have them at possibly one of the last XSI
events.
Cheers,
Eric
