M&E DevDays are coming soon!

Once again, we will present the ADN Developer Conference the day before the US Autodesk University in Las Vegas. We will have 3ds Max and Maya product development and engineering leads to introduce the new features and APIs in the upcoming releases. We will also have eight industry lectures on making the best
use of various APIs. There is a lot of python on the agenda, too, and now 3ds Max is INCLUDED! Yay!

The conference is free, but is open
to ADN members only because of non-disclosure issues. But, if you are not an ADN member
(using ADN Open only) and are interested in attending, let me know and I can try to accommodate you! 

This year we have several M&E engineering people coming to tackle your
questions/issues on almost all Autodesk products. Neil Hazzard (3ds Max) and
Jean-Philippe Grenier (Maya) from the rendering teams will also be present to discuss rendering and viewport related topics.

Come and see us @AU/DevDays – Register
