Walk among the vast line of the gamers out there and ask them if this really makes a difference? As the article pointed out "What a brilliant idea. Half the world's Mod makers are probably using illegal full versions of 3D Studio MAX already, so it's not as if Autodesk is going to lose any money on the deal." I guess not, they only have thoughts of making some, and so be it. They have to make their money, but don't let them think i'm going to appreciate something that they should have been doing in the first place. No, there just trying to get in the good graces of the gaming community by offering a half-version of it and saying it is "free". woohoo! "Is Autodesk trying to put the software pirates out of business or something? Nope, there's a simple explanation, but a surprising one", the article goes on to say. They claim that, and get this:), "this free, cut-down version of 3D Studio MAX is for game players". Well, leave it to me to express my gratitude.
The planet pluto, known as glacier. Land of ice and snow, home of the spice melange. The spice controls the universe...whoever controls glacier controls the spice.
