Softimage WIKI EOL...

[Hirazi Blue]

Important notice for anyone still using the Softimage WIKI:

http://softimage.wiki.softimage.com/ind ... =Main_Page

I wonder how long the mailing list will survive...

[Rork]

In all honesty, I've not visited the wiki in quite a while now ;)

But it's sad to see all this go, end of an era.

Fun fact: the main page of the WIKI didn't even get updated to include mention of Softimage EOL. I had to edit the main page myself to include a link to the "Softimage 2015 Final release announcement". The last edit of the main page by Autodesk themselves dated back to "19 Apr 2013"...

What are you using the wiki for?

[Manticor]

That wiki has a lot of important scripting info on there .It would be a good idea to archive it and maybe put the zip on rray.de

The Face Robot Learning Movies are most definitely worth preserving... ;)

this stuff is all on youtube, in better versions.

I think all the scripting and SDK stuff is integrated in the online help ( except perhaps some GUID list?). However, google currently finds the wiki first, so we think of it as the source of that info is the wiki. To be verified.

Good to know. Thanks for the info... ;)

Im trying to backup to an offline shareable version. HTTrack seems to do the trick but takes too long on me ill try to apply some filters.

This wiki is probably out of date etc but is also good to have for many reasons. I rarely end up on it and this is probably because online documentation is lacking some stuff that are present there. It is a nice concept user experience behind custom articles external links and so on. What if someone wants to build a wiki for lets say the last version of soft? He needs a reference so it is good to have.

Edit1*
After 2 hourds its most scannning and i see no big files transfer, problem is number of files increases constantly, links scanned 4000/12000, 12k files writen,348Mib transfer, and no sign of ending that 12k is now 13k until i end typing this line.
