I know theres already loaders for 3ds,md2, milkshape, etc. but I would like to know if anyone has tried to create a file loader for the .XSI / .EXP for the really cool Softimage software! (or .SCN?) I am still pretty new to all this coding stuff, but I just can''t create my own Thanks! p.s. I heard of the .xsi File Tool Kit / ftk, but I can''t seem to understand it.

I guess the .xsi file format is not very popular... {grin}

However, I found this link that can open those files, using c++, but rendering in Directx. There are some references to things to change for it to work in OpenGl, but its kinda confusing (and long).

Here''s the link:

If anyone could help me at all, or give any suggestions, that would be great!

Show us what you have written so far and what you are stuck on. Then we can help.

deep exploration is a software than can make cpp code from xsi files (you will have some vertice arrays, and a fonction to create a display list) tchuss
