Yeah i have been looking for some time at Animschool for a rigging course, was even once going to ask if they also did it for Softimage... but now Maya it is... thing is.. im pretty sure Maya will change a lot in a so not distant future or that other solutions might appear... should I be investing time, lots of effort (and money) to learn how to properly rig the "old" in Maya? Im not really interested in "learning" Maya and thankfully i only have to animate on it... but i feel a complete stranger (and junior) now that Soft is no more...
