Effective TD’s Eloi Andaluz Fullà has released a short video discussing what we can expect in the future for 3DS Max, based on fleshing out the recent road map and Autodesk’s recent GDC Presentation. Discussion points include detachable viewports, a new bake to texture workflow, new retopology tools, and a new procedural system based on Bifrost board that will initially bringing fire and smoke but is likely to be extended to include a lot more.  Watch it on YouTube

Me too.
Autodesk is not a company that can be trusted. They are just trying to get people money by cornering them, instead of actually trying to innovate.

It seems that Softimage ICE > Bifrost thing is just fog for the eyes.

It cannot be extrapolated what Eloi Andaluz says from Autodesk documents he pointed.
From this and other past occasions were his enthusiasm took the better of him, what Eloi Andaluz says should be carefully verified, specially those not shown or documented.

I have been hearing about Bifrost (ICE 2) as successor of ICE since the demise of Softimage half a decade ago, with nothing to be seen. Then 3DS got a sort of hackICE , you certainly know that MCG. More resources spent for not much profit. Now we have the return of Bifrost…
Yeah i saw the FMX annoucement – for Maya
