DCC/Pack

Kaydara FBX importer, OpenFlight import/export, PolyTrans-for-Maya native plug-in system, PolyTrans-for-Softimage|XSI native plug-in system, Softimage|3D .hrc and .dsc import/export, Softimage|XSI (.dotXSI) import/export
The DCC/Pack contains the most developed and heavily used converters for polytrans, dealing with the common "Digital Content Creation" animation and modeling programs, as well as VizSim (OpenFlight). To you these might seem to be just import and export converter modules, but "under the hood" these modules are the life blood of many an Okino programmer. For example, converting between 3ds max and Maya (via the native PolyTrans-for-MAX and PolyTrans-for-Maya plug-in systems) is an "occupation" in itself at Okino for which we continue to clone the common functionality of MAX and Maya into the core Okino toolkit software (and related interfaces) so that raw, mostly unmodified data can flow between these two programs using PolyTrans as the common stepping stone.
These converters are grouped together in the DCC/Pack as they are developed in unison so that data can flow fairly evenly between any two DCC-based animation or VizSim packages. Okino's known forte has been in providing hands-on, developer-based support to our customers to ensure that these converters work well in production pipelines (and some customers use our converters in the most unique ways!). Note that the PolyTrans-for-MAX converters can be scripted using MaxScript, the PolyTrans-for-Maya converters using MEL, and the other Okino converters using Okino's VBscript or JScript based scripting language.
