Same, absolutely "stuck" with DataTables. It seems to work well even with comprehensive UI frameworks on top of it like SB Admin Pro. Just super easy to integrate DataTables and has 90% of the features I ever want.
- LoganDark 2y agoHonestly this doesn't even sound like a particularly bad thing. Sort of like how Houdini has literally no competition whatsoever. Like it's actually hilarious how nothing even comes close. It just works so well that nobody can really hope to ever do better, and there is nearly 0 enshittification happening, so its existing users have no reason to ever switch.
- mst 2y agoHaving found more than one thing called that, could you enlighten me as to which Houdini you're referring to, please?
- malkia 2y agoAssuming it's the SideFX product - https://www.sidefx.com/ https://www.sidefx.com/ - it's simply the best in it's class.
- LoganDark 2y agoYep, sorry, that is indeed what I meant; I had originally said Houdini FX but I couldn't tell if that was the true product name or not since there are non-FX versions. Bleh.
- __jonas 2y agoI’m not super familiar with 3D stuff, but I’m curious what the “class” here is, is it specifically procedural sort of effects creation mainly for film? I’m assuming for ‘regular’ 3D modelling people still prefer other software like blender/max right?
- LoganDark 2y agoIt's for procedural effects and simulation, yeah. Stuff like fluid and gas simulation, interactions between them, surface deformation from stuff like footprints or tire treads or whatever. In those areas Houdini can't be beat. > I’m assuming for ‘regular’ 3D modelling people still prefer other software like blender/max right? It depends. I'm not sure if Houdini has modeling stuff, it's been a while since I used it. Houdini is only one element of a complete workflow, that's why it has so many importers and exporters.
- __jonas 2y agoThanks for the explanation!
- reaperman 2y agoDefinitely not a bad thing.
- halfcat 2y ago”90% of the features I ever want” What’s in the other 10%?
- reaperman 2y agoHonestly just UI tweaks to make the density higher, especially for controls. I could do this myself with mostly CSS if I wasn’t incredibly lazy.
