I wonder if Maya 2009 is going to get the same facelift AutoCAD did. I would assume so since the two programs are designed to export into the other...
I haven't used maya since version 5 or 6 when it was still Alias|Wavefront software... And even back then it was doing things like 3D animations for the Matrix... Best I did was make a 3D claw hammer
I'm curious what they actually updated for it. I know it's a beast once you got a project going in it but I wonder where they went with render updates.
At least you can play with it for free on their website. Downside being the educational watermark on everything.
I love Maya, but I'm not sure how I feel about it getting made over. I sat down with AutoCAD 09 yesterday, stared at the new look for a while, and realized I had no idea where anything was anymore. I don't want that to happen to Maya too.
