From their website:

"messiahStudio can be used as a complete stand-alone animation and rendering package, or as a powerful addition to Modo, Maya, 3DMAX, SoftImage XSI, LightWave, Cinema 4D or an in-house proprietary application; through extensive animation export capabilities (fbx, mdd, collada), Host Connection plugins and Host API."

When I read this the first time, I assumed that "animation" meant modeling as well, but only because I don't know very much about this whole process.

Thanks for pointing this out.
