25 years later and all these terms like UV Maps and IK are still important today. Crazy how these things in the 90s all became "fundamentals" to 3D software.
So amazing to have a look back to this as if it were ancient history. I remember walking about RG/A studio windows in NYC back then in the 90's. Wishing I was a apart of things.
The lag is partially because a low-end SGI Indy workstation was used for that demonstration shot. The XZ graphics boardset did moderately improve 3D performance on the Indy specifically, but depending on the complexity of the model, smoothly shaded objects could still preform sluggishly.
@@Roughrideyy45 XSI was redesigned to compete with Maya and boasted more innovative particle effects and a customized Mental Ray. which Ironically made it's way into Maya.
Softimage 3D is an older version which stopped at 3.8 if my memory serve. Then instead of 4.0 it was rebranded as XSI and had a completely redesigned interface. New features and all. Texturing in softimage was so easy compared to the nightmare in Maya.

25 years later and still better than most CGI in movies used today.
Started using SI back when it was still called Softimage Creative Environment, around 1990. Used it together with Alias/PA until Maya came out.
Remember what Autodesk took from us.
Never forget.
seethe
My money

These cgi effects and cartoon animations are so beautiful!!!!!!!!!

Ah SoftImage 3D...never had it because it cost 20 THOUSAND DOLLARS at the time
Viral Killer you should say that again with Alias PowerAnimator/Autodesk Maya.
Dang... And here I am complaining about Zbrush's price at $500. Lol
though i had used it since long but i bought a personal copy only when it became 8000$
There was a free version of it called "Softimage XSI"
i miss softimage （ ; ; ）
2:57 the days when solid view were laggy as hell and real time render view impossible and people still complain about e.g Blender being complicated
blender was complicated , I have left 3ds max and gone to it , amazing app

I was thinking “Wow, this guy could do a killer Mark Hamill impression” and then 15:40 happened
What?
can't believe I didn't recognize Mark Hamill's voice lol
From 1993 - 1999 VeggieTales was animated under soft image
High end stuff :)
That voice sounds like Mark Hamill. I wonder if it's him
It is!
Couldn't watch till 15:27 huh?
The force is strong in my family
30年了，我98开始学SI的，停产10年了
It completely Foul that This Software is no longer available.
Still better than maya nowadays
No.
@@JayStein777 okay... better than blender then.
What’s the difference between softimage xsi and 3d
Nothing
the only difference is the rebranding, the software itself had not been changed

@@JayStein777 oh ok I see. Thanks for the clarification

narrated by Mark Hamill
Blendo...Blender....?
They call it " Blender"
Autodesk destroyed this in favor of the technically inferior 3DS Max, softimage was just better from the get go.
Autodesk killed Softimage
mental ray photorealistic....ehoihoeiheoihe cycles X go brrrr
