On a lot of 3D user groups, people complaint about this free edition, because it has this big watermarks across all the working windows that it distracts the hell out of you while working in it, not to mention causes excessive strain in your eye balls.

<< Too bad there isn't a Win 98 version. >>


Yeah, but stability is an issue, but there's winNT, 2000, I *think* it works on XP, Linux, Unix, Irix, OS X....but that's Maya, dunno about the Personal Edition, but I'm gonna download it and try it out.

Is anyone having any luck with this or does anyone know of a mirror? I keep getting the "Due to an overwhelming demand ..." message.

Hm.. I keep getting that too. Now, is this just for download? That'd be a good deal either way, but I couldn't find any sort of order form or anything for a cd.

Keep trying, I just got it from the official site after I reloaded again. I think it maybe shows that when the server has the max users d/ling it. I'm going to install it now :) I'm also going to put it on my morpheus shared dir, although they've been having probs, but hopefully some ppl can get it one way or the other

<< Here is a mirror for those who, like me, can never seem to get past the "Due to an overwhelming demand ..." message. >>

Thank Jesus! Their server has been hosed since word got out. I was just about to suggest a fileplanet mirror (at least there you can wait in a queue), but looks like someone at Alias beat me to it.

Just so you guys know, Maya is not designed for the GeForce line of cards, so as most people here probably have a GF1,2 or 3, you might have issues. The Maya website says that you may experience poor performance, erratic behavior, and stability problems when using GeForce cards....just a heads up.

It's been talked about and even company reps have been on 'The ScreenSavers' (TechTv) the last few days. I'm sure every time they run a segment the sites gets swamped.

Here's another mirror: link. I got faster speeds there than fileplanet and you don't have to wait.

Maya works fine on GeForce3...At least in my experiences
