Ya want more? PAY FOR IT, like everyone else does.
You do realize that Maya once cost well north of $20,000 and came with an SGI box, right?

Heck, it's software - you only have to write it once, right? Why should I pay somebody to write a program once and sell it multiple times at such high costs! (sarcasm there) And adding new features should only take a day or two! How hard can it be? ;)
Actually, once the initial dev costs are amortized by sales, the rest funds either new projects, new versions, or maintenance/bug-fix support. I suspect the truth lies somewhere in the middle on that argument. ;)
Meanwhile, back to collision detect - will this P7Pro actually bring a dynamic cloth calc time to within a geologic epoch this time, or is it the same engine too?
