Hi,

Having rigged and animated a model in Maya, I'm wondering if theres a way to copy that animation and export it from Maya onto an identical mesh in Softimage? I'm guessing there must be some way to transfer the information of the placement of each vertex in space from that mesh from one program to the next, - it sounds similar to motion capture so im hoping there must be some way to do it! I don't even need to transfer the rig across -just the animation. Thanks!
