Author Topic:   Rhinoceros or Alias ynmp unregistered posted 11-28-2003 04:21 PM               What u think about Rhinoceros? Is it better than Alias? I´m so good with Rhinoceros but I know nothing about alias... Thanks!

In Alias you get basically everything, sketching, modeling, rendering. while in Rhino you have the modeling which is fantastic, but then you have a limited rendering feature of Flamingo and no sketch.

IP: Logged Parel unregistered posted 12-02-2003 07:30 AM               Maya is not better than Alias for ID. Maya has no inherent units, so it is a pain in the butt to model anything in actual units. Maya is a cool renderer but apparently lacks some of the surfacing and analysis feeatures of Alias. Spot on on Rhino-pity that it does not have construction history. I wish it did) Havent used Alias in a while so I acant really say what the exact advantage is over Maya. But if you surface a lot, the parametric features of Alias save you a lot of time. IP: Logged
