Blender continues to be a true massive success story for open source, pulling in funding from all sorts of big names and now even Roblox is helping to fund it.
Great! I hope for the day I can replace Maya/Max just for import of NURBs models and tesselation to polygon.Yes, I do prefer NURBS for modeling, and use specialized software for that. Blender replaces Max/Maya for me with regards to polygon modeling though I wish there was Maya equilavent of Create Polygon Tool and Zanoza Zmodeler 1.07b Strip/Fan if I want to save a lot of triangles when I want to make really lowpoly model.
