odo's Deformation (Weight Containers)
Maybe similar, but a weight container in modo is not tied to mesh item. Weight
maps exist in modo the same as they do in other apps. But weight containers are
a way of abstracting that from the mesh item.

It's one of those things that must have sounded great in theory (I remember
Alias reps telling us how we would have never have had to worry about
topology again, all we needed was one half arsed UV map and we'd do our
weights only once in our life, ever).
It's a shame it ended up being absolute cra
I think you are confusing this with the skin weights import and export
tools that ship with Maya, which are indeed crap. Hence the array of third
party scripts in this area. Weight painting is, admittedly, not less solid
than what Softimage has to offer in this regard though.
It reminds m

That's my biggest problem with it; its not *a* weightmap, its *a set* of
them. Only being able to

percent, quite different from Softimage. How come Modo can do sliding
skin and it seems that Softimage method I need amount of time to setup,

Hey guys, Tim showed me this thread and I figured I would try to explain things
a bit if I can. But first let me say I'm a big fan of XSI and the work you guys
do, though I have never used it myself, my officemate does and i find it pretty
awesome overall.
OK... I'm going to start with going th

Would that be the same as using cluster center deforms with weight maps
in SI ? You can create a similar setup, and also define the order of
evaluation by swapping the cluster center deform operators in the
operator stack.

actually, this is not really new and is quite similar to the way
envelopping is done for years in the in-house 3D package at R+H from what
I remember. They had a complete different way to do rigging/skinning that
I was used to see in other studios. I wouldn't be surprised, this
feature is coming
