Messiah

#1 Well I googled it to find out what it is and it looks nice. A layout like lightwave sounds good, however you should check to see what support they have for torque before choosing. Such as DTS exporters plugin or something.

#2 Wait. Are you talking about Project:Messiah? If so, it is a lipsynch package which is a plugin for LW. I believe they have a full studio suite as well (kind of like Daz3D Mimic has both plugin version and studio. I used P:M a while back but stopped due to it not having a Mac version for LW. It was an EXCELLENT package then and I am sure that it has only gotten better.

Now, if it is not P:M, then I'm not sure exactly what package you're talking about.

#3 Yes I am talking about project:Messiah
Messiah animate is a stand alone animator package

I am looking for a an high end but affordable animator package ( no modelling)
It must be suitable for Torque
XSI 5.0 is nice but no exporter yet
Messiah was originally a plug in for LW it should be ok for Torque
Anybody using it?

#4 There is no exporter for it, and I do not know how useful the LW exporter will be because of the way you have to construct your models and animations in the LW plug-in version. They've made some great advances in P:M, but it still seems to be oriented towards procedural rendering of large-scale animations and expressions. Which makes sense since that was what it was originally meant to do.

EDIT:
And it should be noted that it is for animating exsting geometry. P:M does not include a modeling package. It specializes in animation.
