It's certainly not for everyone, but the people it is for will love it dearly for a long time.Full text of " Play - Issue 041 (2005-05)(Fusion Publishing)(US)" But initially, i can do good cloth, RBD and fluids quickly, but setting up a complicated scene, takes proper project planning and thought before even using the application. Overall, it's the package that gives back more over time, once you have written a script or made an asset, they can be used over and over, making future projects really much better and easier/faster. (I currently use 3Delight) But Mantra takes some wrangling to get good results. All of them swear that Mantra is a very capable and good renderer, even over PRman and 3Delight. It's a TD's dream, but it's not the most artist friendly tool ever developed.Įverybody i know will even swear by Mantra, (Houdini's Renderer) Talking recently with TD's from places like Framestore, Core, Mill, R&H. Managed, it's brilliant,daunting and hard to master. Houdini's strength is in it's power and flexibility, everything can be scripted or H9's interface and GUI makeover is excellent, i don't usually like Icons, but i find it so nice and useful, i rarely have to switch to new panels or look for options, they are generally already in front of me. You can easily export fluids for example as an object sequence, or with the latest version use FBX/Collada. Obj and has FBX Import/Export, there are scripts for many motions and channel data available for use with LW.

Yeah SESI have Maya lined up squarely in their sites, Houdini is being much better marketed and pushed, commercial training, great support, nightly builds.Honestly this company knows how to wine and dine me, and i like that. (I haven't actually done the above, but I am absolutely sure it will work) You could then use that chain as a hair guide in SAS.

(or just one chain and a bunch of points on the other side that aren't used.) In other words, you could use XSI cloth dynamics on strips of quads, that once mdd's out are read by LW objects that have had all the quads killed and 2 pt polys joined up into 2 chains. One thing to note with 2 pt polys is, although you cant export or import them to XSI, you CAN import an object with strips of quads, simulate it, and export an mdd that can be read by an object that you have adjusted in LW to only contain 2pt poly strands.Īs long as you use the original mesh with quads as your base and dont remove or add any points, then the mdd reader wont care about what you do poly-wise. (Point oven makes scenes that use a point oven mdd reader in LW (plugin) but you can just use any mdd reader) Or just load the LW scene you made in XSI. IN LW, just load the mdd onto the original mesh, or load the motion files to the objects and that s a bout it. Once you have your finished animation you can export mdds for the mesh and motion files for any objects (such as hard bodies) or just export a LW scene with point oven. Dynamics are really simple in XSI compared to LW. If it's not a LWO, you can import an OBJ. It doesn't matter) If its in LW, you can import it in XSI with point oven.

The basics of moving between LW and XSI are.
