That's pretty awesome! Looks like a solid release. Tell us more!
Now, considering a modeling stack method versus an ICE Tree... Since we sometimes need to freeze modeling to optimize our performance, would an ICE Tree that does the same series of operations slow down performance by the same amount? Obviously, the gains from editing geo procedurally would be worth it, but I'm just wondering how the ICE tree would affect memory, file size, and performance, as compared to a regular non-procedural modeling stack.
If ur on maintenance it will be free if not I would imagine that would depend on what version you are upgrading from. But usually after a big release, they will offer a "get current" special where you can upgrade from any previous version to the current one for a pretty good discount.

Also a cool feature not outlined in the list... you can CHANGE MATERIALS with ICE! :o
There's a new MaterialID ICE attribute which you feed a string to of your material name to be applied. (There's somewhere to specify the material library to look in, too.)
And there's a lot of nice string-related ICE nodes. They go hand in hand with the topology stuff. :)

If all this holds together and actually works in reality, it could become the most interesting version since the introduction of ICE in version 7. A working and solid release would do some good for my continued interest in paying subscription...
Cheers!

Careful Thomas - if you let your sub expire (even by a few days), AD hits you with a lovely $100 "Autodesk Late Processing Fee". Just found that one out this morning...
Ahh the joys of giant, faceless corporations..

Picking up my jaw right now! I can comfortably forget about Houdini now (not that I ever really got into it in the first place). So happy, so happy! I can't wait to see what you geniuses come up with in the next few months! (I'm not being at all sarcastic either. You guys always inspire and delight me.)

A stop button!!! I think that it’s the must useful feature without the need to learn something^^ Love the ICE modeling, but I’m disappointed to see no update for the ICE Kinematics. I would like to see/have some solid solvers for ICE.
