Saw this this morning : https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/3ds-max/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Changes-to-Rendering-in-3DS-Max-2018.html Looks like 3ds max 2018 will have an overhaul on the rendering front.

This does sound like good value. For those people that do use Modo, how would you compare its features to that of 3dsmax ? I’d seriously consider moving to Modo if the features were comparative. Probably just rent 3dsmax/maya when needed for specific jobs where the client needs to have that format.

The hardest thing for me to leave max is forest pack and railclone :(. I’ve been trying other soft recently and to be honest blender migh be better choice over modo overall if we go after most complete tool package. Particles etc isnt too greate in modo compared to blender. True that there is meshfu…

Sorry I didn’t even take C4D into account somehow… and here’s a good read regarding modo vs c4d https://myleniumblog.wordpress.com/2014/11/02/modo-meets-cinema-another-year-another-version/

there indeed seems to be lots of hystery around AD these days, but why dont we just give 2018 a shot first??? I am hearing from various sources its stable and lots of things have been fixed. Its shame they dont give us full list of changes :-/

Yes, C4D looks really good lately. But that said, who doesn’t when compared to 3ds Max :wink: Talking about C4D, It’s a bit of a letdown that it still doesn’t have a native node based material editor. Because of this, some developers have developed their own node-based editors for their render engin…

So much agree with you !
Blender might be my choice… Have to try more deeper
I am also confident that there will be add on for tricks like railclone, forestpack or something else in another way to do all that stuff
I’m also looking forward to seeing Blender 2.8
