Will we be seeing a 3ds Max Exporter plugin for version 2015??? As of today, I see it only goes as far back as 2016. A rather devastating discovery as I have had no plans to upgrade beyond 2015. I’ve been using 3ds Max since the days of it’s DOS version, and sadly feel like it’s really no longer worth the price Autodesk demands. As it is, Unreal Studio at $50/mth is more than what my Max maintenance cost used to be. I don’t have so much a problem with that. I think it will be worth it and there is a lot of room for advancement. Whereas Max is basically mature. There have been pathetically few features released in the last 5 years that benefit the ArchViz workflow to make it worth is $2050/yr price tag. Not that I can’t afford it… it’s more a matter of principle. I’ve already paid for my Max license, and years of maint. fees. I already own the rights to use the software. Bahhhhhhhhh… I’ve gotten on my soapbox, and need to step down. I’m just rather miffed that, effectively, I feel like I will be paying $2650/yr for Datasmith.
Bottom line is, I’m super disappointed I can’t start experimenting with Unreal and Datasmith. Can someone please tell me if there are any plans to release a 2015 Exporter plugin??
Thanks!!
