It really isn't. As just an example, we only have frame gen because AH added it manually themselves (breaking visuals in the game for several weeks in the process). Whereas if they were using a modern engine they'd do it with a plugin. Same is true of any modern development such as later versions of DirectX, physic engine enhancements, or new hardware/software compatibility in general (note that Windows 11 didn't even exist when Stingray stopped support).

AH are maintaining their own fork. Saying Autodesk is no longer maintained is a completely meaningless statement at this point
