Yup, Blender UI is the proof that Aliens exists laugh

I thought it was clear that this was meant as a joke wink

if you look around a bit you will see that truespace is at least as disliked for its gui as blender.


Yes. That was the old 6.6 UI. Officially completely icon driven. The opposite to Blender, which is officially completely hotkey driven. Two extremes.

You could even there fully customize the hotkeys though. And surprisingly trueSpace is still mentioned as one of the most beginner friendly 3D apps ever. Never heard such a statement about Blender smile

But i don't want to introduce a Blender vs trueSpace discussion here. Featurewise Blender even wins. But to repeat myself again, i am not only using trueSpace. And have in none of them so massive problems with the UI like in Blender.

i don't think blender is very special in this regard there just seem to be more prejudices because some people find the whole open source software thing a bit weird.


That's the problem. Most Blender users aren't longer aware of how special the Blender UI really is. It is VERY special wink

There was a time when Blender was the only real free 3D alternative. I would've been glad to save the money, i never had this much. But i have nevertheless spent hundrets of bucks for a rendersoftware. And that was not because of prejudices. But because the Blender UI didn't let me do my job. A a bit more userfriendly UI and i would be a Blender User nowadays ...
