1. The Maya they're using is not the Maya you'd be using, they have custom software out the ass written for it by experienced tech staff, and it's always been this way. You're never going to have the same Hair/Fur solvers, or other advanced effects.
2. I've watched some videos by a dev at Naughty Dog who uses Max, and only touches Maya to interface with the rest of the team, so there's no reason why you should be locked in to one program even in a professional environment.

Just use what suits your fancy and shut up.

My only experience with this was years ago in a freelance-for-free for a unreleased movie. It goes in absolute chaos, with models made in another software being handed to people using completely different enviroments. Today is much better, i guess, but imagine you animating a full scene with the Biped system in 3dsmax and having to export everything to a guy using Maya or C4d. They changed to 3 different 3d Fx 'directors' who didn´t give a shit before ginving up on the project entirely.

I DON´T, RETARD. I HATE the fucking software, it´s shitty interface, clunky options. I´ve been using 3ds Max since it was created. I can do anything with it, given time. And watching the bloopers the studios left slide on DVD extras for complete lack of actual content to put in, they have the very same simulation problems we all have - however, all the major studios insist on Maya only.

I find it more reasonable to assume that Maya IS superior given the amount of end results i have seen in the cinema vs the lack of Blender in the same business. Maya doesn't have to prove itself, Blender does.

3ds Max can do everything. So can Blender and C4D, as the trained on those softwares claim.
As a 3ds Max user, i admit: i can get some results to look like the ones in a Disney/Pixar animation with 3ds Max, but not without heavy work. The main issue in 3ds max would be the rendering engine: i was never able to mimic those light tones you see in tangled, that sss skin shader is too awesome.
However, when i analyse all other steps on the production, especially the non-illuminated scenes, it´s nothing max can´t do.
Add a bunch of expensive plugins in 3ds Max and it can face off Maya animations anyday.

It took me a few weeks to become very comfortable modeling in 3ds max, and I didn't know anything about 3D before that. At first I couldn't know how much I know/don't know because I was new, but looking back at it now, yeah, I learned it very fast, and I'm not delusional. It took me like a week to get on the same level in blender. Substance Painter was piss easy and I was comfortable in a few days. Same thing with world machine and zbrush. Zbrush was actually surprisingly easy, even though anons constantly bitch how hard it is to do anything with it, for some reason. The only thing that was tricky was substance designer (and UE4 blueprints), because of tons of nodes.

It's not my fault some of you are slow. I know how many years it took for them to develop those tools to this level, but you have to consider just how much knowledge is at your fingertips at all times. It's really fucking easy to learn things today, and you have to accept that 3D is not that hard as you are trying to make it seem like. (Ofc, talking about pure technical knowledge, not quality of art, that's another story.) On top of all that, if you've already mastered one tool, it's really not hard to make a switch.

>It's not my fault some of you are slow.
Actually, give three months of very intensive training, -let´s be realistic, six- and most guys could walk out doing their 3d character animation on Maya. Adding another software to his pipeline could be an advantage to anyone in here.
But, will anyone give up on their current projects to do it? Or even worse: subject themselves to a paid course on a software that won´t do anything new besides what their favorite one already does?
I´ve been with 3ds Max for over two decades. I know the legacies, the weaknesses, the limitations. I bet my best model that adding Maya to my skill list would serve NO fucking practical purpose, as the software Disney is using is filled to the brim with proprietary solutions you can´t find anywhere easily, plus a fortune on plugins. Not mention they ridiculously overpowered stations.
It´s like doing a bonfire model with a stripped version of 3ds Max: you can make fire with his standard tools, but don´t try to compare it with what a plugin like AFTERBURN would be able to create.

I use Maya, and I work in the industry. Literally working on AAA shit and various high-budget projects. Entire cinematic workflow from asset creation to final render is fine. Asset creation for real time is fine. What's the big deal?

The only reason people say Maya is shit is because they're trained in another.

Listen idiot, Maya is used for animation and rigging, layout and techanim. There are lot of tools for setting up the scenes and stuff but essentially it's still the same off the shelf software.
Effects are done with Houdini however. Fur is completely different monster and it is not "simulated" in Maya on any level these days anymore. It's mostly automated process when the shot is released to further down the pipeline for rendering. This of course excludes effects shots which need their own copy of the fur effects for interaction.
Unless you are thinking about a career in vfx it really doesn't matter which software you are using. If you are thinking about career in vfx better start to think about specialization and find out which kind of pipeline most of the studios are using these days.
Animator = Maya
Rigger = Maya
Techanim = Maya/Houdini
Lighting = That's completely different beast, skills are interchangeable. Better learn Katana and some other software.
Effects = Houdini
Assets = Whatever suit your needs really
What else?

[Anonymous No.593965]

>>593964
Layout = Maya
Maya is still great as it's customizable and manipulating assets is easy and fast especially when you have custom scripts and tools written by yourself and other people. Maya is great for prototyping stuff.
But for normal people who don't plan to work in vfx or games it doesn't really matter what you do for a hobby. What matters is to have fun. But of course it makes learning easier if you do it with proper software instead of suffering with some obscure freeware tool.

All the big studios use Maya, the arms race is over all the custom software that they put inside it.

If you worked on Moana you would be infinitely grateful that anyone's even heard of your movie, and you're not doing children's TV or furry porn, and people might still care about your work 5-10 years from now.

Also, if you're an animator on Moana you won't be spending all 4 years on it, there will be 1 year of concepting plus initial modeling and rigging before the assets get to you, and 1 year of lookdev / vfx / final rendering / post, so you will have 2 years where you're actually working on the movie.

Why is everything so much more complicated than in C4D? I get it, sometimes complexity is good if you know what you're doing, but there are things could do, especially in terms of modeling, that are so much more efficient in C4D, and feel really backwards in Maya. Why aren't there splines, but rather curves, that don't seem to get the right angle, ever, at the ends of the curve? That's the most frustrating part of Maya so far. The only thing I've found in Maya that is infinitely easier to use, is driven keys, and the node editor I guess. I wish I just got to learn this program first.

Yes anon, you need at least 32 cores to make great looking donuts and cups

64 cores minimum for shitty animu waifus

Futas = add another physical CPU

Said every person who never used 3ds max to it's full extent. I use both Maya and 3ds max. Nothing comes close to Max when it comes to poly modeling. Maya is better than it used to be, but it's not nearly as capable as max.

You misunderstand. For a lot of work, fewer but faster cores is better. There are many tasks in a CG pipeline that aren't multi-threaded, so the lower clock speeds on those Xeons can be a detriment.

The typical animator at Pixar does not work in Zbrush or Photoshop. You can bet they have plenty of Windows licenses for their sculptors and texture artists. I'd love to work in Linux but it's just not possible for indie work.

I'm used to 3ds max, but as an animator maya seems better for me. The only thing is that apparently maya doesn't have modifier stacks like 3ds max- or is that just some bullshit someone's fed me?

I know I could jsut model in max and animate in maya but I'd rather my workflow go though as little amount of programs as possible.

Maya is garbage because it's unstable as fuck.

blender + 3dsmax is master race

You'd want a custom shader. In Maya a very barebones starting point is to take a surface luminance node and use it to drive a ramp with your light and shadow colors (or texture maps), you plug this node setup into your emissive material input (The idea is to override standard diffuse shading). This gives you very precise control over the falloff. Add some fake rim light with fresnel on top and I think you could get the look of that pic. Maybe a little SSS to make the skin more vibrant.

Also some vertex normal editing to get that flat pancake face shading.

The very authoor of this image used a thing called Pencil+ for 3dsmax.
3dsMax had horrible updates since 2012, removing havok and losing plugins -the author took a picture of his studio, with several old computers running old versions of max.
