announced today that their leading software, Maya has become a free download for non-commercial applications. Thanks a lot, Alias. Now I can record the video for my next game. :)" This makes me wish I had talent. At least now I (and many like me) won't have to pay any money just to dabble with Maya.
Hey! Look what's on the top of this stack of CD's next to my keyboard - Maya Personal Learning Edition 4.5 for OS X and Win32!
Crikey! I must have gone forwards in time last year when the Alias|Wavefront people couldn't give enough of these CD's and t-shirts (basically been my clothing for 1/2 of the year) away at AGDC!
The only big news here is that it's the free edition of the latest version of Maya - 5. Only useful if you want to learn it.
