After reading the posts for several days I have finally decided to
say a few things I have had on my mind.
Hexagon: From what I have seen it seems to be a seperate modeler
that will export to a format Carrara can read. Bob seems to be
saying in the chat transcript there will be no Carrara importer. (I
may have read that wrong). Anyway; that would make it almost as
usless as the Carrara vertex modeler for animating and creating
morphs. And in my biased opinion Hexagon had better be cheaper than
Silo, which is by far the easiest to use modeler I have ever seen.
Carrara: Maybe Eovia should change their strategy for Carrara Pro
and Standard versions. I have noticed users seem to be divided along
one line. Animators and Illustrators. The Illustrator version of
Carrara could contain all the rendering bells and whistles and make
those who simply illustrate happy. The Animating version could
include everything in the Illustrator version and contain a more
robust set of animating tools. This would include things like
working bones and a modeler more inclined to animation.
Adobe and Macromedia. Nobody is going to pay for what they do not
want. I would not worry about a monopoly. Dreamweaver and Flash had
no real enemies. and Photoshop and Illustrator do not either. If
anything some of the nifty features of Freehand could make it into
Illustrator and Dreamweaver could work a bit better with Photoshop
files. Regardless; if there are not some substantial improvements in
a future version of any program, Professionals are not going to pay
for them. Adobe has a consumer line for the average home user to
make their money in that arena.
That is just my two cents worth. I just couldn't take it anymore.
