Importing SI to XSI prb?

Importing SI to XSI prb?

Hi all,

My company is in the midst of transiting from Softimage 4.0 to XSI.4.2 (kinda
late huh?)
Well, we bumped into a little prb when importing our SI datas into XSI.
It seems like, the texture cropping of all our models is offset by 1 pixel (the
crop size became smaller by 1 pixel on both x and y) after being imported into
softimage.
The cropping value seems to end up with value of decimals instead of whole
numbers  despite in SI, the cropping values were whole numbers.

Has anyone encounter this problem before when converting SI data to XSI., Tried
to find information on the net and other forums but didnt find any information
on this.

This might be a small problem for few characters but in fact we got over
thousands of past character models to be ported over to XSI.. Hope to identify
if this is related with our rig setup or it's a XSI bug?

Any rational or speculation behind this import problem. Thanks in advance for
any input!



Alvin
