Blender modelling tools, without bmesh, was just more fast ( I mean the bases and the idea behind the tools). TBH without plugin I found it pretty awkward and boring. I’m not the only said so, the some words was expressed by Luceric (one of the maya developers). Maya modelling tools becoming interesting only in release 2014, where they included NEX plugin (the usual ADSK move) in regular release. Artist should have a focus on the field, not which tool they root for. Just be objective for once will ya? This isnt a sports match between apps. I wont get into the same old debates I have had with you regarding this subject. I’m sorry you cant see why thats relevant. It works, and if it didnt work some of the best environment artist and character artist wouldnt be using it. It has direct approach to modeling, which for some seems odd. What I am however, is someone who can, from experience, defend maya from false allegations made by users like you who often just sit around and mock an application you clearly have no experience in. How am I magically the number one maya proponent? I spend half my time on other forums just getting people to try and use Blender. So, even you (the nr.1 maya proponent on this forum) doesn’t go as far as saying “it is good” and “you’re wrong”, but rather “people are able to use it” and “it’s not as bad as you think”? Kind of proves my point, doesn’t it?
