2001 – The FX Tree would be introduced in the soon-to-be-announced XSI 2.0, and this softimage.com banner gave a sneak peak (on the left side, in the background very faintly, you can see a some FX Tree nodes, and on the right, you can see some FX tree scripting).

Click through the image above for a better view of what they’re talking about in this July 2001 thread from the XSI list:

And it looks all scriptable too: on the right of that same red banner you can
make out "FxTree.FileInput".
If it all turns out to be true I'll be over the moon.

Look at the interface screenshot shining through the red background at their
homepage top - definitely looks like a compositing tree!

Guess this is XSI 2.0 and not DS 5.0...
