Thanks for the commendation, but I certainly had no intentions of starting a debate about 3D applications.
It is true that I am very happy with XSI. I spent a lot of time researching what I wanted and I have used all of the big three applications: Max, Maya, and XSI. In my opinion I made the right choice based on my needs and goals. However, all of these applications are merely tools and each tool will benefit the user in different ways. It is up to the individual users to weigh these benefits and determine how well they align with the user's goals.
Anyway, back to the original topic, I am far more interested in efficient texturing and I agree that XSI's UV tools are excellent. I just want to come up with a usable UV layout very fast and then be able to tweak it. So far I am very happy with 3D-Coat but I have not yet exported the mesh back to XSI to check the UVs there. I doubt this will be a problem but then again I have had stranger things happen.
