Hey Felix, I know what you mean and I still have some reservations about it as a pure get-things-done-dirty moddler and scene assembler. Although I'm hoping I just need to learn more to get comfortable with it.
However this video might help a bit wth selections and the scene model. http://www.entagma.com/select-and-navigate/ Cheers, Tim. ________________________________ From: softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com <softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com> on behalf of Felix Geremus <felixgere...@googlemail.com> Sent: 20 February 2017 23:04:40 To: Official Softimage Users Mailing List. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/xsi_list Subject: Re: Opinion gathering I am on the Houdini train for a couple of months now. And I really like it for the most part, especially the more technical aspects are incredible and way better than Softimage ever was. But I am still confused by all the praise for Houdini in certain areas like poly modeling or scene assembly. I'm still learning (and I'm on my own) so there is a high chance that I might do something wrong. But as an example I think the selection and interaction model is a complete mess. Quickly selecting and modifying geometry, like in Soft or even Maya is still almost impossible, at least for me. I can't see anybody doing some serious modeling inside this tool. H16 seems to be a step in the right direction, but especially for those "get it done as quick and dirty as possible" type of jobs, I still don't think it's the right tool. For everything else it's definitely the way forward. 2017-02-20 17:11 GMT+01:00 Oscar Juarez <tridi.animei...@gmail.com<mailto:tridi.animei...@gmail.com>>: Houdini 16 launch event: https://vimeo.com/203373373 On Mon, Feb 20, 2017 at 5:05 PM, Bradley Gabe <witha...@gmail.com<mailto:witha...@gmail.com>> wrote: Any chance you could post a direct link to this screencast? > On Feb 19, 2017, at 9:07 AM, Jordi Bares > <jordiba...@gmail.com<mailto:jordiba...@gmail.com>> wrote: > > Have a look at the screencast they did.. you will see why the excitement. > > Interesting times ahead. > jb ------ Softimage Mailing List.
