I don't think it was for sale... Like this Foundry move, is to buy a technology, not just Mischief itself.
As for how good is mischief now, I say there's quite a bit of stuff lacking. Free-hand straight lines, filleds shapes, Paste an image from the clipboard, common stuff nothing ground breaking. I had suggested these before, but today took the opportunity to redo it: - Transparent emtpy space (canvas). See through is meh. (Yes, a glorified Epic Pen). Because having all that canvas and tools over other apps is amazing. Epic Pen has the added feature that you can work on the other app with the drawing still on top. - Viewpoing bookmarks. You know XSI you get it... Useful for a infinite space like Mischief and to go back and forward between viewpoints and keep working. There's some bugs in this fresh relase, a few from 1.0x missing, but hey... They have time and cash now to fix it all right? ;) On Fri, Nov 14, 2014 at 12:05 AM, Emilio Hernandez <emi...@e-roja.com> wrote: > Too bad BlackMagic or The Foundry didn't buy Softimage... > > ------------------------------------------------------- > Emilio Hernández VFX & 3D animation. > > On Thu, Nov 13, 2014 at 5:33 PM, Ognjen Vukovic <ognj...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> :) >> >> On Fri, Nov 14, 2014 at 12:33 AM, Ognjen Vukovic <ognj...@gmail.com> >> wrote: >> >>> I overdid it with the smiles :) i have to stop drinking i think.. >>> >>> On Fri, Nov 14, 2014 at 12:28 AM, Cristobal Infante <cgc...@gmail.com> >>> wrote: >>> >>>> haha fair enough! >>>> >>>> Will definitely give Mischief a try, the interface looks very neat. >>>> >>>> >>>> >>>> On 13 November 2014 23:24, Sebastien Sterling < >>>> sebastien.sterl...@gmail.com> wrote: >>>> >>>>> Ow i can think of at least one glaring disadvantage Sketchbook pro >>>>> might have vs Mischief ... :P >>>>> >>>>> On 13 November 2014 23:08, Cristobal Infante <cgc...@gmail.com> wrote: >>>>> >>>>>> Sure, but Mischief competes with the likes of Sketchbook Pro and >>>>>> other drawing software. >>>>>> >>>>>> Fusion competes (or tries to) with Nuke, check the pricing and >>>>>> maintenance: >>>>>> >>>>>> http://www.thefoundry.co.uk/products/nuke/pricing/ >>>>>> >>>>>> >>>>>> >>>>>> >>>>>> >>>>>> On 13 November 2014 22:53, Alan Fregtman <alan.fregt...@gmail.com> >>>>>> wrote: >>>>>> >>>>>>> Hey Cristobal, >>>>>>> >>>>>>> Mischief full version is only $25 -- that's so cheap it's almost >>>>>>> free. >>>>>>> >>>>>>> On Thu, Nov 13, 2014, 4:32 PM Cristobal Infante <cgc...@gmail.com> >>>>>>> wrote: >>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Meh. >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Much more refreshing is seeing how Blackmagic is now giving Fusion >>>>>>>> for free, and offering a $1000us pro version without any maintance >>>>>>>> cost on >>>>>>>> top. >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> >>>>>> >>>>> >>>> >>> >> > -- *------------------------------[image: http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s202/animatics/probiner-sig.gif]Pedro Alpiarça dos Santos Animator 3DModeler Illustrator >> http://probiner.x10.mx/ <http://probiner.x10.mx/>*
