XSI to MAX Plugin???

[vmpre]

Export to the dotXSI file format from XSI.

Download and install the dotXSI importer for MAX. Clink the link to find the importer
http://sourceforge.net/projects/dotxsi4max/

Import the dotXSI file into MAX.

Of course, the obvious answer is...why even bother to bring into MAX. Just finish in XSI :p

(I just had to say it)

:beer:

Heh thx man...yeah I totally agree, XSI rules but a friend of mine is trying to get me a job and the boss wants Max files. I know Max well but I just hate the interface and of course "no sticky keys". ::p Thx again.

Hmmm, im having a problem installing that addon file. When I try to download it, I get a html file? How do i install the importer? Thx again.

I figured it out man...the file is for XSI. I need a plugin that will be readable in Max 5. Again, Im trying import a XSI file into Max. Thx.

You right

My bad

that is a 3ds importer for XSI.

http://www.softimage.com/xsinet/displaydetails/Addon_display_detail.asp?family=XNET&software=XSI&parent=16&id=2431&child=Other&netview=true

thats the one you want.

Grab that zip file and put the .dli into your MAX 5 plugins folder.

Sorry about that.

Thx guys for the help but I cant seem to get the importer to work. All I get are edges and dummy objects? If u know, please let me know the info. Thx.

I just use OBK file for export, it keep clusters and convert them to ID, UV are also kept and.

For the reverse step (max to xsi) I use dot xsi exporter.

Suppose I were to export the model in XSI to obj, how would I import it in 3D Stuido Max??
