  | | | MT extrude along normal question | MT extrude along normal question 2004-04-19 - By Susumu Yukuhiro
Back Sorry for posting something unrelated to 4.0! I am totally new to XSI and trying to figure out things right now. I just recently got MT tools and I was wondering if I could use the extrude along normal tool more than once on the same polygon or not. I tried it and second time I apply on the same one, it extrude very different from the last one. Is this a normal behavior or is there any workaround for this?? Thanks, Susumu

That's cool. With the Avid Xpress Pro you can preview 3D effects, titles, 1:1 video all without rendering so I assume it give you a pretty realistic representation of what your final output will look like from XSI right on a NTSC monitor. You should be able to print directly to tape right from XSI if the Mojo is hooked up? -- --Original Message-- -- From: owner-xsi@(protected) [mailto:owner-xsi@(protected)] On Behalf Of Luc -Eric Rousseau Sent: Monday, April 19, 2004 1:13 PM To: XSI@(protected) Subject: RE: Any more detail on the XSI Mojo connection XSI 4.0 uses Avid Mojo or Avid Adrenaline hardware to display the output of 3D viewports or fxtree onto the TV monitor. -- --Original Message-- -- From: owner-xsi@(protected) [mailto:owner-xsi@(protected)]On Behalf Of John Ogresko Posted At: Monday, April 19, 2004 1:43 PM Posted To: xsi Conversation: Any more detail on the XSI Mojo connection Subject: Any more detail on the XSI Mojo connection Does anyone have any info on the Mojo connection for XSI Integrated support for Avid Mojo(tm) output allows you to examine any view, render region, or animation directly on an external monitor using direct render and output to external devices We have an Avid Mojo accelerator here and if it works with XSI the way it works with Xpress pro that would be very cool....more info please, performance, features, machine specs, etc Now I'm excited!
