Houdini is probably the single most amazing 3D software in this world and the next. Most Amazing!

[vfxwithjordan]

The passion you all pour into this software is so apparent and makes me so incredibly proud to be apart of the community. We love you for it! Please never change! ❤

SideFX are just good humans. Thanks for all you do. ML done ethically is the the way. I’d caught that when you’d said it in the room at SIGGRAPH, and you stand by it. The true Adults in the room, and some of the best strategic moves in every area of the industry.

You guys are geniuses. This is the only software that has really meaningful releases with well thought out features. Seems like you guys actually listen to what your users want! I actually see where my money is going. Why would I ever use another software? Please never change!

The new animation / rigging system is like a dream come true. They’ve basically made animbot a native feature, added auto rigging tools to kinefx which was already revolutionary, but they’ve gone so much further. Being able to update trig’s on the fly, transfer rigs, the ease of applying mocap data while retaining all of your animation controls…. I can’t even look at other softwares now. Side fx wins.

[sanderlipmann]

So exited after maniacally reloading the sideFX site :D

[CalvinT-wq]

One of the only 3D programs that I can see where my money is going when I pay for it every year!

[wahidlaaleg]

[noc_art]

Holy Crud!!!! The animation tools are simply god level!!! You beautiful minds at sidefx are definitely something else... 🤗🤗🤗🧡🧡🧡

[waveWhirlVfx]

The Houdini Ocean System is just incredible, isn't it? Whoever crafted the procedural node code behind it must be a real genius.

[andregama]

[InfraredVisuals]

You all are incredible at what you do. The rapid integration of technological advancements into this software is truly commendable. Congratulations on the release of H20, SideFX.

[AlejandroEcheverryB]

Thank you very much SESI for this release, you guys nailed with every release but this one is HUGE!!!!

[ziyaddin]

I don't know what do u think about other arcs, but this new animation environment is insane! I mean, that's how it should be done everywhere.

[monocore]

I switched to solaris as a lookdev/lighting artist a year and a half ago. I'm pretty confident in my sops skills, having the remaining tools available at that level makes me so happy. Thank you so much.

[tronotrond]
