Daz has dropped the ball with Hex so bad, I haven't bothered to reinstall it!

They then added salt to the wound by breaking the shortcut keys for changing the SubD levels and adding "sculpty" stuff for Second Life (whatever that is...)


Of course MOI is the tool I enjoy modeling with the most for getting concepts and forms out quickly so I can't help but wish tools like that were slated for it...

Still waiting for Newtek to give Modeler some love - LWCAD is the only tool that makes Modeler's outdated UI usable for me (well that and VertiBevel) - I just find myself using Silo the most when I'm at the poly level which lacks LW's precision when doing mechanical models.

Hi Will,

>>Daz has dropped the ball with Hex so bad, I haven't bothered to reinstall it!

I am no great supporter of Hexagon (although I do use the software now and again), I was just giving a comparison to what I viewed on the vids.

>>They then added salt to the wound by breaking the shortcut keys for changing the SubD levels and adding "sculpty" stuff for Second Life (whatever that is...)

I looked at the latest version of Hexagon (2.5) but simply went back to 2.2.
The "second life" I do not know, simply because I have not tried to find info, but would say, I have no interest at this time, and would prefer a way to remove that tab in 2.5

I do model more with hard surface, so MoI to me is what I want, but there will always be a "Could it do more" type of concept from me,.. really more a fact I would like MoI to go a lot further into the CG community.
