Mac OSX Port? Dec. 7, 2006, 6:43 a.m.
just another person for the mac osx
Houdini is becoming widely used in major motion picture companies, i was asked to download it and learn it to get thrown a couple of jobs. And i'm on a mac os.
So i had to do it though parallel, still learning it, but it would be great if osx users could get it. IMO Houdini is shooting themselves in the foot by not getting ported on mac's. If its a matter of not being able to, that's another thing, but i can't imagine why companies would by MAC's if Houdini runs on linux, xp and solaris.
Instead, they'll buy the macs and spend their money on combustion, shake or some other program that's on osx. It's already widely known that Apple is on the digital media applications kick, it would only make sense for Houdini to join up before its too late. If it's a matter of money, i guarantee, that they are losing more money each day that goes by without it being for mac, then not.
just my opinion. :?
