non-English forum list?

Post by Hirazi Blue » 10 Jun 2013, 08:56

As it turns out to become a slow month anyway, now would seem the perfect time to compile a comprehensive list of all non-English speaking Softimage forums around the world. Where do you go to if you want to discuss Softimage in your native tongue?

My findings so far:
http://www.xsiforum.de (German)
http://www.xsiforum.com (Spanish)
http://www.softimage.ru (Russian)

I admit it’s not much, but that’s why I’ve opened up this thread, hoping you all can add a lot more.

Note: I am primarily interested in dedicated Softimage forums, but if there are thriving subforums of general CG forums please mention them too. And one thing that would really interest me, would be the Asian side of things, as we all hear that’s where most of the licenses go…

About Asia, I know for xsi user in Korea. I think, people in Japan have own habits when it comes to internet forums, don't believe there's even some Japanese CG Talk, or like.

Just for the record there's SI section in local 3d forum where I'm live. About half of posts belongs to two SI users, including me :). Anyway Maya don't have that much more. According to number of posts, big three are Max, Lightwave and Blender. Houdini and Modo belongs to 'apps without own section'.
However entire site is slowly stagnating, I'd believe most of new people prefers Facebook and so.

No dutch forum afaik...
Anyway, I always expect to find less info on local forums so I don't care (but sometimes it's just nice to use your own language).
