Hi Sebastien, the site doesn't mention the price (if I'm no wrong). Are
you aware of it ?

Hello List.
I just wanted to perform a quick survey of what solutions people are
using for hair/fur/feathers in softimage these days.
recently a new tool has become available on the market, its a
production ready all in one hair/feather solution. it's called Yeti
http://peregrinelabs.com/yeti/
The hair module in softimage doesn't seem to have aged well, and i
know what a lot of you are thinking, ice already gives us a multitude
of ways to develop hair solutions... However, there doesn't seem to be
any universal go to hair solution for softimage. this can be a problem
for numerous reasons. and as good as ice is, it's short comings can't
be ignored (ex: styling tools?)
I wrote an email to Peregrine asking if there where any plans for a
port to XSI, they responded as follows:
Hi Sebastien,
Thank you for the great feedback - we have investigated Yeti
integration for rendering preview which may be available in a later
version but at this time we're not planning an XSI version of the
editing tools. Adding in support for a whole new 3D application is a
large task and we haven't had enough demand for an XSI version at this
stage. If at some point that changes and it looks like a studio may
commit to a large number of licenses we could afford to do this.
So yes, i guess I'm asking who would like Yeti to come to softimage,
and if Not, why?
good day :)
