So 2.8 is now out and I it’s amazing for low-poly models… but high-poly… I know which program I (sadly) still prefer:
(Note, this isn’t the worst case scenario file I tested with that had 5-10 seconds between each frame. I don’t have time to test that yet, but from the above results, I don’t expect anything to have happened since February this year.)
EDIT: Note that the recording software I used only captured 25fps, but you can see at least in the second video that I have 150+fps in Max compared to single digits in Blender.
