LOL what a bunch of crap 😀 I reallly don’t get the reason WHY anyone wants this.
so, we need xsi to use max..
Yes! I was waiting for this!!! Will go great together with Lagoa too!!!
There a lot of cool features and details in that video. For example the scenes are linked not just copied. The Pflow events were created automatically, which is very cool. I hope autodesk will enable that feature in as many applications as posible. Why should you waste your resources for developing a new particlesystem for 3ds max when you own ice?
Umm, to not annoy users who don’t really want to fork out for another 3D app, just because Autodesk haven’t seen fit to develop Pflow since it was introduced?
Or who don’t want their resources hogged by another app, when Max is already a bloated mess?
I really hope there’s more to any PFlow additions in 2012 than workflow exchange to an app I don’t have.
i think Xbr = Push third party Plug in to max

thank for Hardwork
Well as an interoperability addition sure but as a workflow change it seems ridiculous to go from a fully multi-threaded system (ICE) to a single-threaded system (Pflow).
On first look this appears to be simply introduced to get ICE particles into Krakatoa which IMO would be better done by simply using a ICE PRT compliant exporter. Or even FumeFX, why else?
The video simply shows object surface emission, I would rather see (and I think I can speak for every other pflow user) a pflow birth operator that borns particles on another proxy pflow system (that generates the base geometry particles) or a spawn test that uses current shapes as a spawn surface.
The thing is you can already do this in max (what was demonstrated anyway) via a few relatively quick hacks or by purchasing a cheap plugin. Why would one, other than a studio with XSI in the current pipeline, want to drop an additional $3500 (+ subscription forever), to do this is beyond me. Unless of course if Autodesk decides include XSI as a 3ds max subscription benefit, it really only benefits the very few of the few.
