Gordy 0 Posted October 4, 2005 I don't know if it's of any interest to you, but Autodesk (3DS Max) bought Alias (Maya). What this means is the end of a good quality products as Maya certainly was. Buy Maya. Now, crappy Max will destroy the industry. Sadly. Some creation from CG forums: press release Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

svendejong 0 Posted October 5, 2005 Why would it mean the end of maya?? Max and maya are aimed at different users and are both great. Autodesc also bought discreet ( the company that created great products like Inferno, flame and Flint) and these products are still very alive. (Zbrush is sweet isnt it ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
