@dnashj33 Год назад

That's the truth. I think it was some crazy impulse buy on their part. They bought it without putting any real thought to it. They presumed that their monopoly in the 3D application market would instantly make ZBrush users leave for Mudbox...just because it was owned by company that makes their major 3D application. That didn't happen and then they had an "Oh Crap...that was a stupid idea" moment. The moment they jettisoned the creators of the app, was the moment they threw in the towel on Mudbox.

After leaving high school, I started studying 3D. At that time, Blender was just beginning to build its community, and Blender Guru was not yet a standout. By the time I started at TAFE, I was already pretty good with Blender. However, my lecturer, a veteran who had worked on several major movies, had us using 3DS MAX. I really didn't like that program, and for half of the assessments, I used Blender and exported to MAX. By the time I left TAFE, it became very apparent that MAX was out, and MAYA was in. And now, here we are today, with Blender challenging the industry, and Unreal Engine being used for movies.

They might have implemented it into Maya, like cinemad 4d. There was already ZBrush for sculpting. Only the big advantage in Mudbux was, if I'm wrong, that you could paint directly on the texture (UVs), like in Mari. Zbrush is still limited to Vertext-Painting.

@johnathonvought7407 Год назад

I have been doing 3d for 30 years. And I've used Max since the dos days and Mudbox since it was commercially available. I liked the UI and clean, easy feel of Mudbox *LOADS* more than zb and during those early to mid 2010s thats what I used. The one guy was right about getting good in Mudbox in just a couple months. I still have my zbrush I bought in like, 2006 as well. At some point along the way they changed the UI and made it nuttier if you can believe that. I had got used to the old nutty way so I didn't transition well. I can only just now use it for something again now. Mostly for fast retop/uv, speaking of.... I noticed he waited to close on 3d coat. I want to say that 3dcoat has the best retopology, uv, and sculpting tools imho. Best in that you can do an easy fast button press result that is about 90% there, but also the long slow way where you can draw splines where you want the edge flows or UV islands. Especially if you have to fix someone else's(nearly ready) model or scan for retop/uv. For example, you can adjust the UV islands and scale in 3dcoat and the texture goes along with it. You don't have to to a bunch of baking back and forth, it keeps them together for you with no effort. IF you go with the voxel sculpting, you can just do whatever you want and autoretop/uv it later. Literally just minutes to make it ready for texturing in substance painter. I really enjoyed Sculptris and can still recommend it if you have a nice retop/uv tool to supplement that tool. I used it for free even though I had a zbrush license. I just wanted to get in and sculpt something and it was nice, clean, and fun.

@bobcockwood Год назад

After trying (and successfully making my first ever sculpt for a game) Zbrush for the first time, I was wondering how are people ok with this way of creating things as I've been doing hardsurface modeling for a decade or longer and I never thought anything could be this bad UI wise. I've never had to use shortcuts exclusively within first 5 mins of learning a program just to achieve what I want to do in it. I still haven't figured out how to save things properly, I had to use autosave files to recover my work as well..

@johnathonvought7407 Год назад

@@bobcockwood The greatest sin Zbrush commits is that you can't just open it and sculpt, the default is to work in whatever that stupid shit is you start in Zbrush. 2.5d mode I think it's called? Worse than the worthlessness of 2.5d mode, it calls 3d models: tools and you gotta hit the S which we can assume is the "sculpt tool" Why? Stupid, thats why. Zbrush, you would think, would already consider itself a sculpt tool. most people appear to be using it for that. But that isn't how it starts. I bet most users would like to just never have that other mode and be started in "sculpt" mode by default. But every user has to switch modes every time they want to use it if they wish to scuplt. Conversely a tool like Max or Blender you just open it, start doing 3d. Wanna animate, go ahead, wanna sculpt, go ahead. If I had to engage "3d mode" to get out of 2d flipbook mode to start doing 3d in 3dsmax every time I opened the damn thing, I would have picked something else right away. The 2nd great sin zbrush commits is save isn't saving. You're in the wrong mode again and that time you thought you were saving, you really weren't. haha.

Why? Since when Autodesk bought it they fired every single person working on it and stopped developing it. This is why it didnt see any updates, the idea was to merge its feature set into max or maya, but when they lost all engineers working on it there was nobody to do it, they were left with a trademark to a software they didnt know how to update and needed years to find people to figure it out. Meantime zbrush that almost sees no updates and is a stagnated dated turd somehow menaged to catch up a bit ( but only a bit, it still lacks even the most basic features).

@xevious2501 8 месяцев назад

In terms of organic creature modeling i still use Mudbox altough im pretty sure zbrush has it licked. Thing is Mudbox is very simple. but does fall short in features. some basic tools it should have could vastly improve it. but one of its major downfalls is its inability to not be so nitpicky. Bringing in a model from another application is very VERY difficult, as Mudbox will complain on many things if the model isnt perfect to its liking. And despite you beliving yourself to have a ready clean model, it still will complain about something. and though such fixes may prove to be beneficial in the longterm.. in the short term all you want and need to do, is have a finished product to use, and mudbox can get in the way of that happening.

Well if Autodesk neglected the development of Mudbox until Foundry caught up and surpassed it with Zbrush, would Blender catching up to and surpassing Maya/Max in a couple of years be a possibility? To me, Autodesk seems to be interested in buying as many products as possible, rather than being focused on keeping the products they have up to the industry standards.

@Alexander_S_K Год назад

Just a heads up: ZBrush was Pixologix's not foundry's. In the opinion of many artists, Blender has already surpassed Maya as far as modelling is concerned. What "saves" maya is the Arnold renderer and of course the far superior animating/rigging tools. It's basically a rigging/animation software at this point.

It's unlikely for blender to ever become a default within the industry. Its support just isn't able to keep up. On top of that, everything that blender does, a dedicated software does better. Blender can't be the best while also doing everything. You have to choose one or the other.

@nubnubbud Год назад

@@_S_P_A_C_E_M_A_N_ I disagree. after all, its development is far faster than these other programs. next month it should be the first to be able to use native hardware raytracing from AMD and intel cards, and is popular enough that substance, unreal engine, unity, and sketchfab all support it directly or via 1st party addons. sure, it may not be houdini till they get an in-house simulations developer, but tools rarely limit an effective artist, and at this point I find it's largely a personal choice between maya, blender, and C4D, with a recent explosion of people using UE4 as a realtime renderer.

@dnashj33 Год назад

That's "why" in a nutshell. It's abandonware. Autodesk is a software version of the "Borg," from the Star Trek series. Mudbox was too much of a niche application (not enough $$$ to be made) for the corporate executives to commit to its future development. They bought it and killed it, like a lot of plugins they bought for 3ds Max (CAT, Particle Flow, ClothFX, etc.).

@julianking4793 Год назад

Lots of the usual garbage in the comments about which software is best, as if 3D art was a sport and everyone had to pick their team to support. 3DMax, Maya, and Blender, all do much the same thing and all are equally useful and are used by artists for different reasons. The video is about Mudbox which was killed by ZBrush. If Autodesk made Mudbox into a full PBR painting and sculpting programme it would be very useful.

Zbrush was not, and technically never has been a 3D program. it's 2.5D, and 90% of its suite was just 2.5D illustration for a good while. think of adobe after effects' 3D support. only technical support. The sculpting workflow is so weird, because all of it, is just options within a single tool. Think of it like entering "transform and warp mode" in photoshop. Originally, you went into the mode, sculpted a thing, and exited, and the object lost its editability, so you could position it in 2.5D. That's why it's so fast, it's not true 3D, but a representation that can be exported.

It's a long list... in addition to the popular titles like Tilt Brush, Gravity Sketch, Maya and Alias have the fully integrated CreateVR.

@nubnubbud Год назад

there's a long list of them! even blender has VR support, though it could get better with a dedicated developer!

in the hand of autodesk, mudbox is doomed although its UI is familiar for most people compared to zbrush

@iiandreio4228 Год назад

We can only hope follows the same path. Let Autodesk stick to cad.

@insanepolygon 7 месяцев назад

One word- Autodesk. Mudbox died the day Autodesk acquired it. For a short time, it was a worthy competitor to Zbrush until Autodesk bought it and stopped developing it. Since then Zbrush has left it behind in the dust. Autodesk is an innovation killer, the only reason Maya and 3ds max is still alive is because a lot of studios has their pipelines built around it.

Because autodesk, having bought the program, always sits in no way and does not really develop anything. And how many programs have buried Autodesk

Autodesk and Adobe are giant software killers

@slome815 8 месяцев назад

Not for Inventor at least. It's still the most affordable proper industrial CAD tool, and it's basic FEA and simulation stuff is not bad either, neither is it's Autodesk CAM plugin. Compared to the capability of Solidworks, and the dumb user interface, and very high price of Creo, Catia or NX, it's still one of the best for general industrial design work. And if that's too expensive, There's Fusion, which I've never used but I've heard is very good for one man companies and even more serious hobbyists needing cheaper CAD software.

Anything autodesk touches turns to s@#$

@marsmotion Год назад

its way less about interop as everyone uses fbx. its about features and a lively dev of the soft. autodesk let it go stale. why i dont know. curr im using coat and its revolutionary application of pbr to voxel volumes directly. i got tired of zb interface it just sucks and coat does more in the box for video game production than zb and i like i can do retop and uvs there if i want to and even paint stuff. its amazing.

@doillo Год назад

The real reasson why mudbox died is cos it can't handle millions of polys flowly like zbrush. And it is because Zbrush is CPU based soft and mudbox is GPU soft based...

@lastone032085 Год назад

Stop the lies. I could sculpt a 60 million polygon model on a gtx 9800 in mudbox back in the day where zbrush degraded the farther you went beyond 10 million. Mudbox had performance, UI and the texture painting was light years beyond zbrush. Autodesk simply dropped the ball just like they did with XSI.

@PeterSatera Год назад

It's such an absolute waste, autodesk made a right mess of their potential ecosystem...look at substance, that integration done right. I updated mudbox to 2024, it has NOT one, update (,unlike 2023). I'm calling ceased development this year on for it. Maya and Max are eventually going to be punished if autodesk do not get their act together. Blender is redoing their animation pipeline over the next 3 years. The wave is changing again, I say this as someone that was a very focused Lightwave user that uses Maya. Maxon aren't out of the shadows either, blenders acceleration rate is astonishing, and zbrush need to keep putting out pipeline defining features that make the Payment worth.

@WaspMedia3D Год назад

Max has been getting some love the last few years and apparently has a lot of updates in the pipeline. Its still needs polish and more updating on some of the critical tools, but its a far cry from where it was 7 years ago. I think we can thank Blender for this. I don't use Maya but I heard many users complaining that Max is getting all the attention now and Maya is getting table scraps for updates.

@user-cx7ss2rf5p 8 месяцев назад

Autodesk is a cancer on the 3D industry. It acquired and killed its strongest acquisitions. Softimage XSI and Mudbox should be the backbone of 3D game and entertainment development. Instead we have tired bloated pigs like Maya and Zbrush with its awful user experience and interface.
