SI to IGES Conversion: FAQ
What are SI files?
The SI format is associated with Softimage, a program first released in 1988 for Silicon Graphics workstations. The software specialized in creating 3D animation for the film, broadcasting, gaming and advertising industries, and by 2000 it was replaced by an upgraded version called Softimage XSI. SI images are currently considered rare and obsolete.
