SOFTIMAGE CONVERTER

This Converter reads and writes models in the format used by Microsoft Softimage. It adds one entry to the conversion lists:

Softimage binary .hrc

It can read earlier versions of Softimage files, but writes files compatible with version 3.51.

Geometry
All Softimage "mesh" geometry will be converted to polygons. NURBs are not translated at this time. Instead, convert your models to polygons within Softimage before translating to other polygonal formats. Hierarchies and per-polygon-point texture UV coordinates are translated.

Material attributes
Softimage materials are very similar to those translated by Interchange.

Options dialog

When Flip polygon normals is set, the orientation of polygons will be reversed.
