Fusion is great with Softimage & it's 3D environment is fantastic. Getting things back and forth isn't as easy as I'd like, though. You can export your scenes as FBX, but Fusion won't/doesn't see camera animation in FBX files from XSI for some reason. So you have to export your camera as a dotXSI, and then import it into Fusion - then you get your geometry & your animated camera.
Fusion doesn't support Sub-D's, though, so any subdivided object comes in un-subdivided. The new C4D-AE pipeline only interests me for motion graphics. I think AE is a real pain to work with for serious compositing. -Paul On Fri, Apr 5, 2013 at 11:11 PM, Christopher < [email protected]> wrote: > Nuke pipeline to expensive for me.
