Congrats Michael, that is great Milestone.

I just wish i knew about his 3 days ago (some newsletter/notification maybe for future :)?) so i can squeeze in expenses (for upgrade price) in 2020 instead 2021.

Congratulations! I have purchased the license, but I'll be frank, the amount of time you took is ridiculous.
I hope after this major overhaul, everything will be simpler.

Looking forward to see more tools to make Moi a production tool:
- line types, hatches
- groups and instances
- layouting

Happy new year! May this and your other projects be successful, in health and fun.

All the best,
Massimo.

Thanks Massimo! Yes I do expect that the next releases should not take anywhere near so long. I should be able to focus more on feature work for a while instead of platform work.

However, just in general speed of development is not a high priority for me. I prefer to go slowly and focus on quality and on avoiding bloat.

This particular release has been quite spectacularly slow though indeed. Maybe I should write a "slow software" manifesto like "slow food". ;)

Ah Michael, that's wonderful!

In my opinion, much of the world is too focused upon speed with the predictable consequence that quality and the joys of craftsmanship suffer. My friends and neighbors think I'm nuts with my love of old manual (non-CNC) machine tools because they're all so sloooow and require so much thinking. I just smile. Craftsmanship takes time & that's part of the point of doing it.

Hehe, yeah it was slow definitely BUT i prefer that slow steady and proper way than what most companies is doing now-days by chasing yearly updates (and that stupid naming scheme of year in advance) and then release small feature-set, bug fixes and new bugs in every release during that rush for 12 months cycle.

You are doing stellar job Michael, especially considering you also maintain/answer forums and e-mails too.

Just upgraded to V.4. Would have done so sooner, but I was out of the office for the Christmas break.

Michael, you are a treasure! MoI is the best designed, best supported, user friendliest software I know of.

So happy to watch it grow and develop; and to purchase your upgrades...

Bravo!

Mark G.

Thank you so very much Michael!!!

Got me upgrade! :-)

Moi V4's platform upgrade, speed and memory is certainly worth the upgrade alone.

So I generally only lurk on the forum these days but Moi is my meat and potatoes for work when clients need 3D graphics and type. [Actually, they don't need it, I just give them 3D and they like it!] Moi lends itself to imprinted apparel art well. It's also my go-to planner/designer for all my 'maker' needs.

I've been a heavy Blender user for the last year or so which came about because Thea Render's development focus became myopic. It only took a decade and a major UI change to finally get into it! Yes, "anything" can be made in a major poly modeler, but no, only if I wish to take the Rube Goldberg/Faustian Bargain route to creation... the two programs are different animals as we know, like bread vs butter, so Blender is basically used as my photography studio and showroom setup for my awesome Moi creations.

I honestly now greatly appreciate the simplicity and careful thoughtfulness you've put into the workflow and UI!

I'm glad to hear V5 may see more creation features improvements. I vote for an ultra all-in-one Blend+Nsided hybrid that allows for intuitive tangency control for each edge... oh, how I've dreamed. ;-)


Michael, you deserve a good vacation now (somewhere socially distanced) - stay safe!

Thanks once again Michael for the slow-cook. The time taken is more than made up for in the thousands of man hours saved hunting through menus to find buggy features that then take hours to figure out / complain on forums about to deaf ears (for sure!!). Always refreshing.

- Rich
