Well... I've been modeling and rendering scenes in maya quite while ago, like 3 months, i like this software.. still i don't think it is the ultimate one(as if there is such a thing), anyhow i would guess there is a software that completes maya and would give me almost what all the 3D world offers, I've heard of Zbrush and softimage XSI and lots of others... if anyone here has any helpful thoughts I would be pleased :smile:

Computer science news on Phys.org
3d studio max would be my next choice.
 
uh aren't 3Dsmax and maya the same type of software?
softimage i thought was also similar to 3Ds/maya

Photoshop(texturing)
ZBrush is an awesome tool...i saw a teacher use it once...its for nice curvature deformity
and yes it'll complement either maya or 3Ds
rag-doll physics i thinkt 3Ds has.


sound programme maybe.
 
yes thanks all, i would also say that 3Ds and maya are pretty the same, anyhow I am becoming more interested in zbrush as i hear much about it, i would ask again if zbrush is compatible with maya, so that i can export files from it to maya and vice versa...
if anyone knows how to do such a thing, keep me informed or give me a link or something...

Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'

I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
