No Background renderer? Didn't it also have a built-in default renderer? what the actual fuck. We will no longer be bundling mental ray, or another background renderer, with Maya. Thats not like 'boohoo they didnt include X feature I want', that's a real solid 'This is a problem'. You actually do have a legit reason to be upset. I get some of why they are doing it, but I figured it would be some sort of staggered release with both MR and Arnold for a version or two to let everyone get settled. There is the questions page if you are interested. At some point we will be forced to upgrade. Especially since they have switched everyone over from actually owning the software to an adobe-esque rental program. It's just a really big cost to bear all of a sudden. So to use Maya 2017 in any capacity with our render farm, which we've built around MR over the last 10 years, we're going to have to buy 45-50 thousand dollars worth of renderer licences of something, either MR, V-Ray, or Arnold. That's fine if you already use V-ray or whatever, but because MR has been included for so long, many people especially freelancers and small studios have become fairly dependent on it. So there is no batch farm rendering out of the box. Starting with 2017, they are including one viewport only license of Arnold (which they just bought) and removing mental ray entirely. Well, for years and years they've included full mental ray (viewport render and batch render) licences with copies of Maya. I know there are currently GPU accelerated engines that everyone can use, so the fact that Octane doesn't shouldn't mean that Maxon can't. It makes very little sense for Maxon to release a built-in engine that everyone couldn't use properly. It wont happen until everyone can use it properly, and if Otoy - A company whose major focus is the development of a GPU Engine - is having trouble with getting it on Apple systems with AMD cards (or just non Nvidia cards in general), I was never expecting Maxon to do it. I just hope this doesnt slow me down even more.įinally - We were never getting a GPU renderer guys and gals. Then again my GPU is terrible, so maybe my bad viewport isn't Maxon's fault. The viewport improvements are nice too, although I kinda hope they're kinda coupled with better viewport performance. at least alot more tools i'd personally use. :Dįeels like a much beefier release than R17. Sweept nurbjesus, that would make my sibdiv modelling soooo much easier and cleaner. I'm really excited about all the new mograph stuff, it looks really awesome.īut the new knife tools. Most of C4D's userbase is mograph artists. Well there's a really heavy Mograph focus with this update, but I dont think that bothers alot of people.
