In the short term though houdini/xsi corrdination should be
workable, thats kind of the standard scenario for Houdini after
all, where it is used in conjunction with other software...
definitely take a close look at Alembic which seems fantastic,
too. And please let us know what you discover in your explorations! :)
Cheers Andy,
am really struggling with the interface, but the first thing I notice
(apart from the lovely volume voxel shaded display in the viewport) is
some really nice default procedural noise called 'alligator' in the
3Dturbulancenoise node what the heck is that - looks great though.
The problem with seeing something cool is hard to resist having a go
at recreating similar in Softimage with ICE - because we can. think
this is what the Worley noise node was missing in ICE, some
understanding (by me) of what it can achieve with just a little extra
turbulence math. heres where I got to with it last in in Si ;)
