To get a model
into XSI from Vue a while ago (it was 4 then) we did the
following.
Export as
Lightwave
Read into Lightwave
as a scene not an object
Save out as Lightwave
5.6
Import into Deep
Exploration and export as dotXsi file
Bit round the houses
but did work, perhaps after getting the Lightwave scene you could use Point
Oven now?

it
didn't do what I wanted it to anyway. I'm using Vue, from e-on software, to
generate landscapes and I'm moving the landscapes from Vue back into xsi using
obj but having problems with the transforms screwing. I was hoping exporting
as a max scene from Vue would work but the transforms are still screwed. I'm
veering OT here but I don't suppose anyone's had any success with this and
Vue?

Na, just
download the trial. You'll get 30 days to work your piping magic. I
recommend fbx btw and bake the animation. Max has (not sure about v8 tho) a
bug with euler rotation so set it to tcb or linear THEN
bake.

If you need a license just to import export you
might me able to get away with using 3d Studio Viz, (the arch viz
version).
Its a lot cheaper and should be able to use the
.xsi to max plugin

I think you will need a seat of Max. My
experience with going from Max to XSI is that you have to have the .xsi
plugin for max which requires you to export out of max.....pretty
lame. Autodesk (Discreet) has always had a stick up their butt when
it comes to sharing their file formats so other apps can import Max
stuff.
