thats interesting, cause in the official statement of autodesk regarding xsi 2015 there is mention of a dx11 support, right now only dx9 seems present and doesnt work at all..

Hello user of Zombimage...

i wanted to ask if anybody knows if xsi support somehow a dx11 viewport/shaders or if it doesnt even exist.
thank you

@mattmos the character have not being scaled, it has being freeze and everything is at origin, i have tried appplying the apply smooth operator from the envelope painting and it does work, but if i go with the smooth brush it doesnt do anything. @forton yes its selectable @Mathaeus yes, strangelly i...

Hello, Sorry for posting here instead in the rigging section, but thats something related to overall all smoothing in xsi, i am using the 2014 version, but for some reasons the smooth envelope brush doesnt seems to work at all, i can apply, add or erase without problems, but the smooth its a nope! D...

Mixamo its doing a great job with enveloping too, so i was wondering if i can simple transfer that rig-enveloping to a traditional rig to be used more efficiently cause the fbx bones that mixamo imoport are almost useless...

Maybe there is not a script, but perhaps some sort of method to reinterpreting the fbx bones into something more appropriate rig (gear or traditional)?

Does anybody know if a script for xsi exist? as usual there is a max and a maya version, but not an xsi version.

Thanks

Hello people, i have a problem, i had several versions of xsi installed (starting from the 2011 till latest 2014), from first installation i had gear (1.1.0), today i have decided to uninstall all the old xsi versions to leave me only with the 2014 and kaboom, gear its gone, even after uninstalling ...

yes ive tried that possibility too, but for my meshes the vdb its not working, for some reason i can't get the gridname to match on the vdb from my houdini tank to ice, so for now it didnt work at all...

you mean in empolygonizer? sure there is a mesh resolution option i am talking exactly about it, even at lower res its useles... i am doing the turn of the world and i have exported the particles in real flow format, from there into frost then back in xsi trough alemebic...still faster then anything...

Sorry Helli

would you mind explain a bit further where to create the attribute?
thanks

well seems like really a tricky things to do, real flow import the particles, but then to mesh them the only solution i could find is empolygonizer, wich (although i am using it wrong) takes minutes only to scrub the preview in the viewport, means that if i want to make a flipbook with it for 300 fr...

thank you dwigfor, i manage to write the correct decimal directly inside houdini which is usually much better..

to rename stuff, if your interested there is a free small utility called rename it, very handy

@Pezetko
i manage to have the exporter to work now i have to understand how to add a numberic decimal to the sequence or xsi will not read it correctly heh damn life is hard!!

hi again, i am trying to change the aspect of the particles coming from an alembic file, which are actually the same "slam" yellow of the traditional particles, someone know how to change theyre look? i know how to to it with ice particles, but not with Alembic particles, anyone? thank you

ah thats super weird, my bad i was totally sure last time i tried with realflow that i couldnt get particles with bin!! i should recheck even if that sound anyway like a bit of a third passage which will make everything more complex to manage.
