Gamebryo offers full support for animation methods and parameters produced from 3DS Max and Maya as well as from Softimage®|XSI® version 6.5.  There is no better choice for video game design artists.

Gamebryo Max and Maya Exporter Features:

Gamebryo provides your artists with complete support for Max and Maya exporters, including:

• Hierarchical, spline-based interpolations
• Translation and rotation keyframes using linear, Bezier and TCB interpolations
• Quaternion-based rotations
• Cycle control for clamping, looping and reversing sequences

• Particle systems, with support for virtually any particle effect in 3ds Max and Maya, including animated emitters and deflectors, forces like gravity and drag, and mesh- or volume-based emitters
• Skinned characters (hardware and software)
• Support for vertex morphing, light and material color animation, texture coordinate animation, and just about any other animate-able value
