I, for one, would like to see hardware anti-aliasing implemented. It is
WAY faster. As most things hardware generally are. You can force it on
of course, but it requires you to shut down XSI, change the display
adapter's control panel settings, and restart XSI. And then the
interface is buggy, so as soon as you finish capturing, you have to set
it back. Takes a lot of time. Maybe there should be some sort of
preferences panel like what you see in video games for controlling the
XSI's OpenGL settings. And DirectX too, I guess. This is a hack that
we use on literally every project. Some guys even leave it on and just
deal with the interface problems. I think it's probably time for it to
become a feature of the software if there's any way that's possible.

Halfy just didn't get a chance to sort it out before release.

Hmmm...yeah, didn't realize that was missing. This really should be
included in the next release I hope. I honestly don't know why
Softimage
removes such features. I think the users should be asked first if
features
like this should be removed.
