Hi,

anyone have some experience in conversion of animation between packages? Personally I am more comfortable working with Maya but have spent a lot of time in Max, and can animate with Max/CS, but wont have the graph editor in Maya which I would rather not be without. So is there any easy way to convert Maya keyframes to Max bones or Character Studio? Or conversion between any animation software say Max/Maya/XSI etc?

Cheers,

I think Kaydara's free fbx plugin will do.
It allows transfers between max, maya, xsi and motion builder and keeps UVs and animation I think.
