Hey guys.

Are you ****ed up?

What did you do to the help desk site? There's 80% less information there now than there was before. You think Arnold's gonna be popular after that? You have to be crazy dudes to screw up the help manual that badly.

And yes, I know that most of the help has been moved to the standalon section, but beginners do not know this, they will simply close the help and switch to another renderer..

Please forgive me for my bluntness.

There is the same information. Documentation that was repeated six times before now lives in one place: the Arnold User Guide. 


If you want plugin-specific information, you go to a Plugin User Guide. If you want to know about Arnold nodes and parameters, like Standard Surface, you go to the Arnold User Guide. Or, as another example, if you want to know about operator selection expressions, you go to the Arnold User Guide. A Plugin User Guide will have info about how to create operators in the host application.

We'll soon be adding more links to help.

I don't think calling us garbage and ****ed up is bluntness.

I apologize for my harsh remarks. Thank you for your response. The links, I think, are what need.
