Hello, 

i just found this group and i hope people still use it as of 2026 :)

Im still using Softimage XSI for parts of my work. Specifically i Unwrap my models with XSI.
One amazing thing that XSi has is the Regularize. 
How does this thing work ? What is the algorithm it uses to relax the UV islands in a way that it preserves the polygon distribution as it is on the 3d geometry. 

Im not a programmer. Im an artist, im sorry if i sound as an absolute idiot but i am struggling to Relax my models in Blender and i am trying to create an Addon for Blender to do just that - Relax and Regularize the UVs.
Im trying out different AI services to make the Addon but it keeps on failing.

Can anyone give me some advice or direction as to how to explain to the AI what XSI did.
Did anyone of you guys work on the Texture Editor in XSI back in the day ?

Thank you for your time and attention!


p.s. XSi after not being developed for so many years still has a lot to offer that other software just cant manage properly.... So sad!

Hi Pimeto, how are you?

I think there are few people on this list, and I guess there aren’t any XSI developer left here.

Maybe you can try to find them on LinkedIn!

Have a great weekend,
