Hi guys,
I made a reference in the "Good Freeware Bad for Business" thread about a friend of mine always having the latest version of some software, despite NEVER paying for it.
Well, Autodesk released "Extension 2" for Maya Unlimited 2008 recently for gold subscribers only (of which I am one) - it is not for public release, and mainly includes new features for muscle systems and skinning, as well as all the SP1 updates (SP1 is on public release at the website).
So I went round to my friend's house this evening for a couple of beers and to see his and his wife's new baby, and guess what...! He drags me into his study to show me:
"the latest release of Maya. It's awesome man! Some cool new things."
Yep - it's Extension 2.
I didn't have a go - he is a new dad after all and emotions have been running high in his household recently - so I put my game face on and smiled and nodded.
We've all heard the arguments surrounding piracy before, so there is no need to rehash them. I just had to vent my frustration somehow....!!!
