About This File
This MAXScript is an importer for the Softimage dotXSI 1.x file format. It is derived from Tsvetan's original script (see credits). Version 1.030 makes significant changes for importing Star Trek:Voyager- Elite Force dotXSI 1.x animtaion files that were released by Raven Software.
There are a few issues with the script but it suffices to import in the animation and save it to a 3ds Max file for later retargeting of the animation onto any 3ds Max skeleton rig. See the included documentation for history and usage.
Version 1.030Beta breaks compatibility for Gmax, 3ds Max 5.1 and earlier (a version is in work to restore broken compatibility).
