Hello JimD! If you are reading this, this is Reid Kimball who used to work at Ritual Entertainment last summer.
So, anyway, like the previous posts have commented on is the fact that Maya is a very expensive program. It also requires many hours of practice before one can get the hang of the interface and such. I have faith that the DOOM3 community will release a freeware modeling programing, or utilities to convert models from other applications so they work with DOOM3.
Also, the scripting abilities in Sin and FAKK2 are amazing. The best yet of any game out there. I assume the scripting in DOOM3 will be quite similar and improved upon. However, I was curious if there will be a way through the script to control the facial animations of characters?
