<<1) 4.0 does seem thin, particularly compared…>>
I agree, see my previous messages.
<<2) Lack of patch model, spline base editing is painful…>>
That's what caused me to cancel my upgrade.
<<3) As vast as tool choices will become with 3rd party dev…>>
Yes
<<4) I am very concerned about 3rd party developers to provide free or very
reasonable upgrade path…>>
Me too. We have over 24 major software packages for the Mac and PC. Just
keeping track of the lastest versions, maintenance releases, etc. could become
a full-time job if I let it (of course, I won't have a job if I did). I can't
see having to track a half-dozen third-party plugins for each of them as well.
<<5) there was too much talk of the Yost Group being…>>
I don't know anything about that.
<<6) Serious Ani-Pro users really got befuddled…>>
Don't know anything about Ani-Pro, either.
<<7) For 5 years I have had an incredibly strong faith in 3-DS…>>
Me too.
<<8) I can handle laying out $5000…>>
Not me. I would be willing to pay up to $1000 for a full-featured upgrade.
<<hell, i have typed enough… >>
Not bad for stream of consciousness.
