Hi Enzo, I should have pegged you as a Studio Tools user - that culture just has so much of that pretentious "we are soooo extra more special and professional" than you vibe saturating through it.
We ran into that a lot when I was developing Rhino - at that point Rhino actually used the exact same NURBS library as in Alias Studio, and I saw all kinds of comments from Alias users about how much better their surface quality was when they were actually running the exact same code!
It seems to come from some kind of special "designer name brand" type worship, where the attitude is that obviously something that costs $20,000 is so high class and better than something that costs $1000. I mean how could you miserable unwashed masses even think that you are approaching our lofty perfection?
Needless to say, I am not a particularly big fan of that attitude, I find it distasteful and borderline offensive. Your last post is just dripping with it, with loads of absolutely ridiculous statements.
The bottom line is that it is far more important to focus on things that actually matter, like a smooth and fluid workflow, rather than miniscule pixel tweaks.
Putting such a hysterical emphasis on visuals like you seem to want is just not the right focus for a tool.
I have actually spent quite a bit more effort in improving the visuals of MoI as compared to what I did in Rhino, specifically because I know that there are people out there that have a kind of shallow "judge it by its looks" type outlook. You seem to have one of the most severe cases of that kind of an outlook that I have ever encountered.
It's obvious that MoI is not the right software for you, and that's ok with me, I don't expect for it to be the right fit for every kind of person.
- Michael
