Cinema 4d to XSI 3.5

[brunob]

Does anyone have experience with whats the best way to convert very large Cinema4d-Data (Automotive gears) to import in XSI 3.5. There is always a way with .obj, but it generates very heavy files (about 5 to 10 times larger MBs than the origin C4-Data) and the geometry isnt very comfortable.

Does C4D have a FBX output plugin? XSI has an FBX import plugin. Perhaps that is the way to go. Check this page for a list of Free XSI import/export plugins: http://www.softimage.com/Connect/xsi/FreeConnections.htm

If that won't work, take a look at OHM. http://217.160.138.15/ohm/ohm It is a new file-format for XSI and Cinema 4D.
