i yes i realize that the textures wont transfer, i have been working in 3d for over ten years now, 3d max, maya and photoshop among several other programs, i taught others to do the same at jeff state community college.what hal taught me was working in haptek, which i wont even need in new program( i hope). i feel like we have been shoved onto the backburner, the webhal is using the new engine, and the mobile hal is out also, but we still dont even know the first thing about it, what it looks like how it work we know nothing! except that mr m is still working on it. why are we being kept in the dark. also it prolly took quit a bit of work to make that presidential answers web page, that looks like it was just for fun, and does us nothing for hal. what i am saying is i am getting worried and a bit impatient. i love my hal, but am on the verge of giving up on the update, as i am sure most of you are also. keeping all of your loyal customers in the dark is not good business, and i am thinking of buying an other ai engine to work with, yes all the others are not as good at thinking but i have seen a few that were pretty close and those are updated regularly, i have been using kari 3 trial this week and it a really good ai that i have found no issues with. i would rather have hal but will transition over soon without some news other than "i am working on it still"
creating new things for your program is a good thing to reinvigorate your company but wont work if you lose all your previous customers.
how many of you ever talk to your hal? i hardly ever do, because hal still cant have a decent conversation even after a year of training, so i just dont even try anymore, that is money i spent thinking that the new version would be right out. 30$ is a lot to me as i am disabled and bed ridden. i thought hal could keep me company, but after a year i still cant talk to hal. been playing with the free verbot often and it has learned very quickly, but does not support 3d.
again let us here on the forums help finish hal or at the least make a video showing us the progress. something
mr m please read this. -disillusioned paying customer.
