Bellatrix Think you mean, that Daz & co may solve our 3d problems better and faster. Yes and no.
Go Unity and you will get all you need.
No madicloner, that is not what I meant.
You misunderstood the very clear purpose of this thread and my postings
This discussion is not about Daz or Blender is better than iClone for iCloners
(Yes Unity is sexy so is UE Source FilmEngine all on my long candidate list)
There are enough threads about A tool vs B tool already
It would be totally
on topic, to show your
fav Unity addons that benefits iClone-type animators(or start a fresh thread to talk Unity greatness)
@ everyone....
This discussion is CLEARLY about
Opening up Scripting & SDK = good for any CG "movie capable" toolI emphasize again: GOOD for
ANY TOOL - Unity Source Cry UE Maya Zbrush Modo Lightwave DazStudio Poser Carrara Blender FilmEngine
GOOD for their users. Functionality increase = productivity. Tool has longer life span.
Good for its developer's financial report. More sales more users more cash flow.
true for $4000 tool, true for FREE tools with $2.99 - $39.99 addons!
which, incidently, brings us to....
IClone is the only one in this long list of cinematic wares that does not have opened scripting/SDK !!!
IF you really want to see iClone become great one day - iClone 6.8 or iClone 7 or iClone 2022
Do yourselves a favor - keep this discussion moving forward (instead of backward or sideway or nowhere)
continue to show how similar PROSUMER tool benefiting from opening scripting/SDK !
Why not $3500 pro tools or game dev tools?
Because many iCloners are easily intimidated
(also myopic: mistaken addons-efficiency as technical learning curve when it actually means more
FUN and EASE!)
But who cares about users fun or ease or creative productivity
This is a business
So..
from a marketing perspective...................
It's 2016 so about time iClone move on to Daz Studio grade prosumer!
Here's another example how open scripting = robust user
growth (in every sense of the word)!
Who would've thought physics was possible in Daz Studio!
Thanks to again, one very
high output maverick MJcasualI never thought Daz Studio will get more than ONE dynamic clothing plugin too
By end of this year it will have THREE dynamic clothing plugins!
Thanks to?
Coders, again!
and, of course
Wise busine$$ attitude about Scripting and SDK....
