Polytrans only support the MAX file format if you use their Polytrans for MAX
plugin ie, you have to have MAX installed and be using Polytrans plugin, not
the standalone. That's explained here http://www.okino.com/conv/filefrmt
_3dimport.htm .

 Have you try Polytran from Okino?

I could be wrong but I don't think you can import MAX files outside of
MAX...it's a proprietary format, Even with translation utils like Deep
Exploration you have to have MAX instaled on your system in order for them
to work. I've been wrong before so feel free to prove me otherwise :)

 Thanks Ed, TwigGen was indeed what I was thinking of.
Unfortunately none of the links provide a way of  importing Max files into
XSI. I have a bunch of models in that format from TurboSquid that I need
   to
 bring in.

   For the 3DSMax dotXSI export tool check here:

As for branches... perhaps you are looking for Xfrog?

Or maybe TwigGen?

Does anyone know where I can find an add-on for MAX (I have the one for
3ds- works great).

Also, someone a while back mentioned a procedural modeler for creating
tree branches that works with XSI. Does this ring a bell with anyone?

Thanx in advance,
Larry Chandler
