...yeah, maybe you are right :P


but try writing an exporter in c++...

wish cinema 4d had usable script language like blender has python (sry, but coffee IS crap, seriously...)

ok... just one things.
For my work I use tools. I need to trust it each morning and that I know how to make it go.
I used Indigo ver0.6 with Blender exporter. I learned how to chance xml for the things that exporter did not do correctly or simply to change some values. Fine...

Now? New everything changed and documentation is not explaining me all I need...
And a new version of Blender changed even more the way that exporter work. How many hours each day I have to need to read this forum and to understand all? (and of course BlenderArtist, the italian community of Blender, sometimes Ubuntu...and and and...).

I just will wait version 1.01 (01 because will be bug-fix :D ) to restart again tweeking Indigo. And I'll propose Indigo for my studio (lot's of Arch.), buying, when it will be available "The Indigo Guide" with the extra Cd "Indigo Textures and Materials" directly from the website.

For the moment is a baby, great ideas, great programmer skills and a big big future in front of him (both the man and the program :D ):
I just wait it become a boy (the program...).

Friendly,
Ricky =;)

Edit: ah, nothing to do with my supporting it, forum presence ... just a push to make it better.

ok...
your opinion, your decision, but I guess, you will miss some cool things...

to say it in your words ( :oops: ) : 8 and 9 months pregnancy are already quite present -> you nearly can see the final result

I was waiting for a long time (some couple of months) and exporter Blender> Maxwell, Indigo do the same that Maxwell, maybe with some hours more but i can wait, and Indigo is very more interesting (maybe because the community is cool !)

hmm... INDIGO ALL THE WAY. One of the things i like about it is being able to watch the image lose its noise, especially on those rainy sundays...lol
