XSI probably works, but I don't think the Mod Tools do.

Actually, yes they do.
You'll just have to do a bit of tweaking around to get zeroeditor to work

Urrrgh! Just realized this topic is for Linux, not Vista! I'm blind........ In this case, I doubt either of them work, unless Softimage offers a Linux version of XSI.

You could probably run the mod tools in a virtual machine like WINE. I BELIEVE that XSI offers linux versions of XSI; however, I don't think that they offer Mod Tools or Foundations for it.

Umm... Why wouldn't they?

A file is a file, it's executables that have problems.
