(Updated) A video showing the Messiah to Max connection plugin has been posted on Vimeo.
PMG, the company behind Messiah:Studio animation software, is looking for CG believers to join their campaign. They are selling Messiah:Studio and Messiah:Studio Pro licenses at $10 and $40 respectively (originally priced at $499 and $1195). The offer has a catch, though, if you acquire a license you’ll receive it only if their total sales goal has been met, otherwise they say they will refund everyone. They are thus asking all of those who purchase a license at the discounted price to spread the word and help bring more CG users to the faith. Messiah:Studio exports to FBX format and can be used as character animation companion for Max. More at PMG.
Also it has a plugin to directly connect max with messiah forward and backwards.
The plugin is open source and it’s being recompiled by David Baker at maxplugins.de
Cheers.
Thanks for the note Juan.
