  1. Oh it's out? I knew it was coming soon but here it is. I'll give it a go and see if I prefer 2011 or this new one

  2. That 3D graph / motion path editor looks great. Not upgrading again though ):

  4. I wonder if this one will have random moments like 2011 does and lock up/ crash to desktop/ be unwieldy ?

  5. ^ Almost certainly Oliver. But it's part of the autodesk experience - or so I keep telling myself

  6. I downloaded the trial, and made a random scene, when I switched to Mental Ray it crashed to desktop... so yeah, its still has that autodsk craziness

  7. Simon, this is worth it alone for the new modelling tools. Split polygon looks like a real dream with it. Added to that; viewport 2.0 upgrade, which looks stunning btw. To give an example, a scene that runs at 5frames per second in the horrible default view, in 2.0 (which is close to final render quality if set up right!!) you'd get an INCREASE in frame rate over the default. On the examples shown, I'm sure there was an increase in frame rate of around 30%, and you get crazy real time shadows, motion blue, antialiasing etc from it. Looks amazing.
