XSI+ActorX?

[Kno One]

Epic and Softimage anounced a this early last month. --->linky<---, Here is the D\L page for the XSI Mod Tool + UE add on. From what I've read, it mixes the best parts of discreet's 3DMax and GMax. Besides a limit on render size and polly count(7,500) for exporting, it's a fully functioning and FREE 3d app. Supposedly it lets you design, fully rig, animate, and export to .psk\psa any 3d object for the Unreal Engine.

I just d\l'd it to check it out and i want to see if anybody using this yet?

XSI is superior to Maya when it comes to modeling. XSI cannot be compared to 3DS Max. In fact, I see no resemblance between either program. A friend of mine who was once a Max die-hard has recently switched to XSI. It's a little difficult to get the hang of at first, but after that you start to love it.

I just downloaded the addon yesterday, but I haven't had time to give it a shot just yet. If I can figure it out soon enough, I may release 2 of the models I've been working on in XSI.

I highly recommend XSI to anyone who asks. Maya is a turd imo (though I'll admit it does have some merits )

Glad to hear that you think it's a good prog Tj.

Just read about the "lock and load" mod tool contest SI is running. If i can figure enough out by the deadline I'm gonna give it a go myself.
