Well, it's been a while since I've seen the state of C4D-AE's integration, but the last time I checked, when you exported passes from C4D to AE you get a complete comp with everything already layered for you. AD has also added similar features to Max and touts it as a selling point. Lightwave now has a "send to After Effects" function as well as a plug-in for sending layers back to LW from AE. Essentially these packages allow you to round-trip your work fairly easily.
So, while they work do together, I wouldn't say Softimage is in the same league as the competition. Adobe's partnership with Maxon will just deepen the connection. -Paul On Tue, Mar 19, 2013 at 12:59 PM, Stephen Davidson <[email protected]>wrote: > I have been using Softimage/XSI with After Effects for over 20 years > and find them to be quite compatible. > What do you want to work better?
