Yost Group..er Autodesk…er Kinetix..er Discreet..er Autodesk has locked all of the forums over at http://support.discreet.com. This is the final step before they move everything over to http://area.autodesk.com. Area is the new combined AutoCad, Max, Maya, Viz, etc… community portal. Area goes live tomorrow (8/22). I don’t know how long the old support boards will be up for old topic searches.
The old support boards were my main source of information, inspiration, and help when I learned MaxScript. I never met anyone on those forums who wasn’t curteous, friendly, and helpful. Kees, Swami, Bobo, Paul Neale, et. al. were and are the nicest group of industry peers anyone could hope to know.
I’ll kind of miss the old boards. I hope the discussions are as friendly, lively, and helpful over in the new Area.
