Website :: Update and Info

[glorydays]

New websites looks great. Cant wait to see more on spider, tension tag and doodle. They look really promising.:thumbsup: Makes the future of cinema very exciting.

[Erik Heyninck]

Always good to hear from you!
This all sounds fabulous.
Now over to your site(s).

[Katachi]

I told you "i am sure they are working on new stuff". ;) good work Per!

[pit]

Very convincing reel, Per - I especially like the mood you´ve created in the cinematic scenes. Like a distant, but vivid memory - great stuff indeed.

I´m also intriqued by the preview of the tools to come. How far are you from releasing Spider, Tension tag and doodle?
Anyway, I´m certain the reel will help you attain whatever you intended with it...

Cheers

they have been very quiet recently, i thought they were just resting :)

node based compositor INSIDE cinema.................................WOW


All the other stuff isn't shabby eather! :D but the compositor........
i'm at a loss for words, except........more INFO!

[lightblitter22]

You guys should turn your plugs into a Third Party production bundle. Would make sense to buy them all in one fell swoop since there's so many of them now.

crazy

I thought Mesh Surgery was dead.

Great to see you back, unreal.

[azazel]

Spider sounds awesome :thumbsup:

[moka.studio]

...New developments on the way include Spider, a node based compositing system and realtime post system for Cinema.

Sounds fantastic!

and so does the return of MS to cinema4d.

Tension tag sounds also interesting--
will that be a single product or inluded in something like Stormtracer2?

Oli, I just realized you are in Hamburg as well... whereabouts? -

[flingster]

spider sounds like something out of xsi and should be interesting to see in c4d...looking forward to more info on that

btw...on the first set of titles you have spelt "Developer" wrong in demo reel...and on website "Purchase" (http://www.thirdpartyplugins.com/ > products)..on pauls site link..hope this helps...

keep up the good work..:thumbsup:

[guypapyrus]

I'm really wary about buying plugins, mostly because I usually can't make a business case for them (yet); but Spider sounds like it will be a no-brainer for me. Not sure whether I'll be getting the 9.5 matte painting tools, but those in conjunction with Spider sounds pretty powerful to me.

So a question for you, Per-Anders: If I'm not mistaken, you're an XSI user as well; how will Spider compare to XSI's compositor? I've had a chance to use it (at least 4.2's version) a bit and rather like it, though I've never used Shake, DF, etc., so I don't really have a basis for comparison.

Best,
Andrew

This is really a great idea. One I think would be beneficiary to everyone. The plugin developers would probably sell more of their work. C4d would become even more professional. It will sort of feel integrated without having maxon to do support for it. And ofcourse the users would get it at an attractive price. haha.

[tcastudios]

at the same time we have a nice update to XStacy::Elements that should give it a very nice speed boost, especially for Mac users

Looking forward to that one:)

Cheers

[JoelOtron]

I was wondering what happenned to you guys. :)

This is exciting news. I will definitely get the MS upgrade. I hate the R9 modelling workflow. I mean its good the functions have been added, but I am so used to MS that modelling in R9 is awkward for me.

Good to know there are new tools coming as well.

Nice reel.

[acmepixel]

Wow. Spider looks very exciting.

Doodle has me most intrigued. Can you give us more info?

:applause:

[Per-Anders]

Hi, all the tools shown are a little way away from commercial completion, we're showing them to give a little taster of some of what we're up to behind closed doors, so you know we're not dead! I wont be giving out any release dates yet, though naturally more information and release schedule will become available as time progresses and as and when we're ready.

olli wuensch - the tension tag is likely to be a seperate tool.

flingster - The website and reel typo's should be fixed now.

[chris_b]

daaaaaaaamn..... that's just awesome. This is very exciting. So much good news around here lately just makes the heart beam.

Also Per... I hope that you will also find time to post your updated XStacy scheme (the one with the new tabs and orange highlights).

Joy! :applause:

[spirozero]

Geeesh. So many great new toys! So little money. :sad:

[wuensch]

Oli, I just realized you are in Hamburg as well... whereabouts? -

Vereinstrasse (near Schanze).

PM me if you want drink a beer some evening ,-) Could be nice 3d-talk--
Olli

[marshalartist]

Nice Reel and great plugs, I hope they do not take to long to bring to the market. I also like the changes to the web-sites :thumbsup:

[Venkman]

Sweet can't wait for the updates!

[Siddhy]

Brilliant. Can't say i'm happy with having to pay 300 Bucks (for 9.5 which doesn't add anything I need) + Update Fee to fully use a Plugin I already paid for after not being able to use it for months. Is there anyone outhere paying attention to hobby users? You know the ones who made C4D big.

[lightblitter22]

Spider and tension tag both look interesting. Spider has a very son-of-XSI sort of look to its GUI. :)

[martinp]

Per-Anders,

Amazing stuff...... we never doubted you, honest! You may have just stopped me from doing something rash and putting my 9.5 upgrade money towards XSI :)

Does Spider have all the general compositing features that XSI provides (eg you can use it on any bit of film/series of frames not just ones from inside XSI itself)?

Martin

Eek! I've just realised... 9.5 update, ST 2, Spider! Hmmm, where did I put that bank manager?!

[Erik Heyninck]

ahh...,siddhi...when people look at a tree, they usually forget the roots.

it is indeed a bit sad that to get some things work (textures stick,...) that are bugs, you need to pay for an upgrade. But all big companies are like that. Don't blame Maxon. My intuition tells me the tension tag is coming from Nemetchek's share holders.
Cinema is, in a way, turning into that what we wanted to avoid in other apps. Which is why we turned to it.

But I guess there will be a fair upgrade price for MS and storm owners.
And, attractive as they are, you don't need all plugins at the same time, do you?

[Siddhy]

I just want to have my Mesh Surgery back. I used it all the time in 8.5 and since 9 i have no possibility to use it. And no, its no argument to drop an expensive plugin only because suddenly some of the functions are identically implemented into the core (not crediting the 3rd party i must add).

[hundredthirtyseven]

Will Spider support After Effects plugins? AeFx plugins are the best on the market and there are plenty of them. I personally use Digital Fusion instead of AE because I hate the standard Adobe layout, but Digital Fusion supports AE plugins too and I couldn't do anything without them.

[RangTang]

I'm with Siddhy on this one, if possible do a separate version with the bugged features cut out.
