The mxiReader

The mxiReader is an image file reader for Nuke that allows you to load MXI files or sequences into Nuke with full 32 bit color information. Once it’s installed, simply open the MXI file(s) as you do any other files in Nuke.
The MXI reader loads all the channels available in the MXI file as independent Nuke channels:

• Render: Loaded into the rgb main layer.
• Light channels: If Multilight was enabled, each light creates a new layer using the light name assigned in Maxwell Render, Maya, 3DS MAX, etc.
• Shadow channels: If Multilight was enabled, each light creates a new layer using the light name assigned in Maxwell Render, with the SHADOW_ prefix.
• Alpha channel: Creates a layer named ALPHA.
• Z-buffer channel: Creates a layer named Z.
• Motion Vector channel: Creates a layer named MOTION.
• Object ID channel: Creates a layer named OBJECTID.
• Material ID channel: Creates a layer named MATERIALID.
• Roughness channel: Creates a layer named ROUGHNESS.
• Fresnel channel: Creates a layer named FRESNEL.
• Normals channel: Creates a layer named NORMALS.
• Position channel: Creates a layer named POSITION.
• UV channel: Creates a layer named UV.
• Custom Alpha channels: Creates a layer for each custom alpha channel group set in the scene, with the alpha_ prefix.
