Since Deep Exploration doesn't support enliven or since enliven doesn't support Deep Exploration, what we've been doing is creating animations in maya 8 and then opening them in maya7 and saving, then 6, then 5 then 4 and finally saving the animation as a mtx file so that it can be opened and used in enliven. The problem is that when I import the file to enliven half the animation is messed up. Somethings that shouldn't be visible are and somethings that should be aren't. That was fine for the first animation because it only had like 1000 objects, but now we are on the second one and it has more like 8000 objects. I can't fix every little thing, there has to be a better way to get the files into enliven without losing the animation.
Any help would be appreciated because it will save me about 100 hours of tweeking on each animation.
