Softimage XSI 7 with ICE

摘要

Softimage, part of Avid Technology, is thawing XSI 7, the latest version of its professional 3D animation software that introduces a transformative open platform called ICE (Interactive Creative Environment), designed to capture the creative vision of content producers. With a visual interface and an easy-to-use node-based programming model, Softimage XSI 7 enables users to quickly create complex visual effects and tools while coding less. ICE will allow artists to explore, learn, and modify the library of particle-based visual effects and deformation tools that will ship in Version 7, or simply build new ones from scratch. Powered by the Gigacore II parallel-processing engine, which was designed from the ground up, ICE utilizes all the available processing power on multi-core workstations, scaling with the number and speed of available cores.
