Maya 7 reviewed…

The biggest news concerning Maya came within a few months after version 7 was released. This news was that Alias (the company behind Maya) was acquired by Autodesk and is now owned by the same company that develops Maya’s chief competitor, 3ds max. With the two most popular 3d packages under the same roof, the big question is whether Autodesk will combine the two products into a single package or if they will simply make Maya go away. Autodesk recognizes that the Max and Maya communities are both really strong and has decided to keep both products alive and separate. So, it appears that Maya will not be going away, which is great news because version 7 of Maya has some great new features and is yet another huge jump in functionality.
