I disagree. The 2.8+ UI is well designed and way snappier than 3DS Max.

- archerx 5y agoIt is subjective but 3D max interface is much more intuitive. Like when navigating the 3D view ports. UE4 also has a nice interface that is similar to blender but feels better.
- agumonkey 5y agoI think it's a wasteful debate nowadays. Blender used to be too peculiar if not crippled but they reduced the gap a lot. It's bearable now.. and, they could probably get close to most 3D apps UX (i'm speculating but i'd bet a few dollars).
- wizzwizz4 5y ago> It is subjective but 3D max interface is much more intuitive. The most intuitive interface is the one you're used to.
- archerx 5y agoI've used many many different 3D programs from 3DS max, milkshape, XSI, Maya, Unreal 2, Unreal 3/UDK, Unreal 4, Hammer, Source, Three.js web editor, Zbrush, Houdini, etc and none of them have made me as frustrated as using blender. So I don't know?
- DonHopkins 5y agoHello again. Can you name ONE way 3D Studio Max's user interface has tangibly improved since Monica Lewinsky brought Bill Clinton a pizza and blew him in the White House? Not ONE? If you can't, then I rest my case: Max has an ANCIENT outdated user interface, and it's been stagnating for decades. So what if you're used to it? I'm used to Windows 95 and Microsoft Visual Studio 6 too, but that doesn't mean they have good user interfaces. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYt0khR_ej0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYt0khR_ej0 >"Jim, let me tell you something: there's gonna to be a WHOLE BUNCH of things we don't tell Mrs. Clinton. Fast food is the least of our worries, ok buddy?"
- wizzwizz4 5y agoIt depends what you're using it for. I like Sketchup and Hammer; Blender doesn't remotely resemble those. But then, Blender can do things that those most certainly can't; they're for different jobs.
- cycomanic 5y agoWhat does intuitive in the context of a complex app like blender or 3d max even mean? You need to seriously learn the interface for either one before you can do anything. To me this is sort of like saying the interface of a boeing is more intuitive than the interface of an airbus, really quite meaningless for anyone.
- whateveracct 5y agoHah this feels like the same arguments people have about Haskell and PLs in general. People can't help but mistake familiarity for quality.
