People I got a pm from a very well respected person that asked why I was so down on c3d modelers and its prices.
I have never been down on any of its modelers or prices but let me clarify what I don't see as right when other software vendors dont do it.
It is the copy protection and encryption that has nothing to do with the modelers or any prices. If I like a model the price dont matter to me unless its way over board.
I would have probly done spent in the neighborhood of 600-1000 dollars if the store was run as other stores. I wonder how long Daz or Rdna would be in business if they did this with their products. I know of others who do not buy because of the encryption and protection. Would be a lot of money if they did.
I sent the president of e-on an email saying the same thing and did get a reply back that he would look into it so its no big secret of why I dont like to spend my money at c3d.
I do buy weekly and monthly from Daz , Rdna and Renderosity when a model I see I like and can use in vue either by exporting from poser or as a 3ds or obj and the price has nothing to do with my purchase.
Anyway I thought I'd try and clear up what some don't see what I ment. In no ways was I refering to the modelers or the prices. Not to any of the people who some I am sure don't like my stand on this issue. Its kind of like politics when you think you right stick with it. :)
