WEBSITE | DOWNLOAD | LIMITATIONS

The XSI Mod Tool is a completely free version of the professional Softimage|XSI modeling package. It has most of the features of the professional versions (certainly everything you'll need for modding) and allows you to export your work to Source without restriction.

Mod Tool 6, the most recent release, ships with a pre-installed Source plug-in offering:

• SMD export and import
• VMF export and import
• Weightmap export and import
• Various skeleton tools and sample rigs

Note:The XSI plugin distributed in the Source SDK (ValveSource.0105.01) is for Mod Tool 4.2, which there is no longer any reason to use.
