Whether you are a 3-D professional, an experienced modder or just a novice, the XSI Mod Tool guides you through all the features and functionality in SOFTIMAGE|XSI. Unlike other free game modification utilities, the XSI Mod Tool gives you full access to all the professional features available in SOFTIMAGE|XSI. Everything you need to create and rig your characters, props and environment elements is here. Design, build and texture your artwork. You can then mix and blend animations, render interactively, or use real-time shaders. Once you're done, simply export the models to your game.
SIDE NOTE - Microsoft announces Softimage will offer a FREE DIRECTX PLUGIN to allow easy import/export of models to XNA.
