HOI

Hi jumaku.

Just a small question for you,

Why would you think ‘tags’ would be a quicker/faster way for Animation and Modeling?

Houdini just isn't really build for ‘conventional modeling’. So why compare
And for Animation there is a wonderfull world called Chops. Its basically the most advanced/flexible/overlooked animation tool in the world.


I'm sorry to say this but ‘tags’ like in Cinema just doesn't make sense in Houdini, at all.
The problem I think (no disrespect) is that you spent way to much time in the tree view, like if it is the same as in Cinema/Maya etc. But it is really not. So close the treeview and open your nodegraph, and watch yourself fall in love.

And please quit with the UI for ‘old’ users thingie. It's quite offensive.
Houdini is ITS interface. People get upset if someone would touch that.

The only thing I want Sesi to focus onfor H13 is SPEED, Multitread the sht out of Houdini.
Lightcach would be awesome too, maybe even some GPU accelerated stuff in PBR.

just my 2Cnts
