Current plug-in version

2.7.3

This build is incompatible with Maxwell 2.6.0. Due to some changes in the extensions (hair, particles etc.) mixing incompatible plug-in and Maxwell versions will cause Softimage to crash on startup. Please make sure you upgrade both the plug-in and Maxwell to the latest version.

 

Download the plugin installer  from the Download Area and unpack it. If you are a Maxwell Render license holder, then please access the Download Area through the Customer Gateway to download the plugin. If you are not a license holder, then please download a free demo version of the plugin at the Maxwell Render website by filling out the application form.

Requirements

The Softimage plugin is currently compatible with:

  • Softimage 2011 and above, running on Windows 32/64 bits

Installation

Simply drag & drop the .xsiaddon file to an XSI viewport, or alternatively go to File>Addons>Install and locate the .addon file.

Make sure you use the appropriate xsiaddon file for your Softimage version (Maxwell2013.xsiaddon / Maxwell2012.xsiaddon or Maxwell2011.xsiaddon)

It is not necessary to restart Softimage.
