magneto Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Has anyone seen this before? https://vimeo.com/47892648 It seems like the proactive ICE guy Guillaume Laforge is making his own after being let go by Autodesk. He shows nanode is faster than ICE due to using GPU. It would be pretty interesting if he makes a 100% procedural node based 3d app out of this. Can this be a competitor to Houdini? Any thoughts? More vids on his account. Btw I don't know how to embed videos. I tried the media tag but it didn't show the thumbnail. So please feel free to change it if you can.

magneto Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 I also think he could provide value considering he knows alot about ICE and its inner workings. Combine this with some anger towards Autodesk, you have got a good opportunity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3__ Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 SESI should find his mob number and offer to him an HisDesk , since AutoDesk refused him . He's seems to be making good progress on his own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanostol Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 i think he joined the fabric team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magneto Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 Yes he is working for another company now, although I think working on 3d apps is what he wants, but there aren't others where he lives that isn't Autodesk. So if SESI wanted him, I am pretty sure he would jump, unless he doesn't like Toronto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanostol Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 fabric is a framework for 3d, they don't produce content , just tools 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magneto Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 Oh I didn't know they were, thought it was a regular studio. Still SESI > Fabric I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

altbighead Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Can this be a competitor to Houdini? Any thoughts? No .No and No. Are you really comparing one guy project to a software that developed and tested for 20 years with shit tons of high-end effects under the belt. I don't know what to make out of this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
