Dont have to be an expert int both programs just look at the feature lists..

I agree you do not have to be an expert of the program to read a feature list but the feature list could be 100% jive. I would suggest being proficient in any progam that you claim is much better than another in order to have first hand knowledge and show proof. You may find the rigging and modeling of Modo or XSI to hard and difficult to use. If that is the case then a feature list 1233323 miles long would do you no good.

I could not get the Hash Animation Master to do anything but others have. This is not because the porgam is good or bad but because some people's minds adapt to AM. On the other hand Thomas can rig figures in Carrara very good while others can not. I think Thomas's way of rigging is a lot like how the Poser native importer rigs the figures in Carrara. My Daz figures have great IK and the feet do stick to the floor. I was impresed with how Carrara handled the rigging. I admit the animation previews are way to slow compared to Poser when using Daz/Poser models. This paragraph is not based off of reading form the Evoia website but from actually trying the software for myself. So yes you can imprt Daz/Poser figures and animate them with out the need for Poser but the animation previews are very very slow compared to Poser. Eovia forgot to mention that on their webstie.

It is OK for a website to claim they have advanced IK and rigging but I think it is wrong for anyone to post this info as fact unless they have used the software first hand. Website info does not have to be 100% true.
