Well Autodesk is know for not being one of the industry’s giants, but for all the technology they come out with. They just announced that in 2015 they will be come out with an updated creation suit.
These new versions are designed to improve performance and are update to keep up with complex computer graphics. There are so many new tools like The XGen Arbitrary Primitive Generator which makes it easier to create detailed geometry such as hair. Also 3ds Max have a new scene explorer which makes it easier for artists to manage complex scenes.
Autodesk 2015 is now equipped with a plugin that allows a Microsoft Kinect to record your body movements. Maya LT 2015 allows the use of a keyboard and mouse, the common video game controls for people new to 3D animation. This is a very useful software update that utilizes new and old controls.
I could use this if and when I would create 3D animated videos, Mayan LT 2015’s WASD controls would be very useful because i’ve never made 3D animations.
