I recently had to edit the config of a lot of accounts just as lycos stopped their free mail service. Maybe not Autodesk in this case, but this can happen always when a tool is offered as freeware and there's no income. Still waiting for CSP EX to have discount in China (EULA says Chinese user can't use any version outside China, and I don't want to pirate it), and Animation Paper which would has absolutely no ETA for open beta.Īnd the issues I experienced with AD forcing everyone (more or less) into rental plans, as well as them destroying Softimage (which I switched over to, but shortly after they stopped development). I'm mainly a PaintToolSAI2 user, Affinity Designer got me into doing vectors but Sketchbook pretty much got me into nothing (well, maybe except their pencil textures are a bit better than other affordable software). I was never very into the software except on mobile platform (which I have no choice, I'm an android user) and now probably use even less of it. It would be a very bad news for artists who aren't product designers. Giving that they are still developing the enterprise version, my guess is, they would just keep the current "pro" version as-is, maybe with some minor gimmicks, and shift the focus to intergrate the software into their product design lines. I wouldn't be surprised if Sketchbook going free merely means AD has decided to drop the app in the upcoming years. A friend of mine adopted that in all of his classes, only to find himself hoodwinked now by AD's 180 degree turns. Fool me once.Įarlier this year they stopped development on Stingray, their much touted and publicized game engine. I won't ever deal with that company ever again. And the issues I experienced with AD forcing everyone (more or less) into rental plans, as well as them destroying Softimage (which I switched over to, but shortly after they stopped development). Paid for it, and then out of the blue they pulled the plug on the license server, and sent an email stating that they wouldn't allow existing (perpetual) licenses to be re-installed if necessary. Years ago I owned a freelance edition of Motionbuilder.
