This year dont think so...

some time to go but Truespace will probably be up front !

One reason why it is interesting for Microsystem to

have Truespace in the portfolio.

There will be lots of change in the 3d business in

the upcoming years. so theres no reason for panic about

the takeover.

Definitly not bad to have money and unlimited resources.

Thats why future for caligari looks brighter now !;)

I agree Peter, very exciting indeed. I doubt very much that Microsoft were interested in a 'several' year old modeller, but the DX realtime stuff really has some power (having seen the best that other modellers can do). I can see why they might want to be part of its development...and ownership pretty much guarantees that level of involvement.


Now Microsoft have a vested interest in Caligari (and the workspace) they could well develop this into their flagship program for realtime modelling and rendering. If that is the case then we will all benefit.

Just think, you'll be able to render full quality HD movies in less than a day.... that could be a market changer. :D
