  • Read / write TGA, JPG, PNG, Iris, SGI Movie, IFF, AVI and Quicktime GIF, TIFF, PSD, MOV (Windows and Mac OS X)
  • Own import and export of DXF, Inventor and VRML files, Python scripts for many 3D formats
  • Create standalone executables with interactive 3D content or run them with the 3D Web Browser Plugin

Fire and smoke

Fire simulation is included in the Smoke Simulator. The domain has received major updates to improve performance and usability. Without the need for a particle structure, smoke can be expelled from the mesh surface. A flue gas field is included to enhance interactions with other simulations. It is possible to simulate and mix colored smoke, and the contact of the smoke with the collision material is improved.

Mesh modeling

The bevel tool now includes rounding and otherwise much improved, creating a better topography while preserving the requested bevel width more evenly. A new symmetry tool has been added to make mesh geometry and data symmetric.

More features

New features include: a tool for transferring peak weights from one loop to another, transitional window drawing, proportional editing attached to a UV editor, DPX file upgrade and write, more control over curved tape, collision masks on the gaming machine, and enhanced drawing camera caption protection.

Rotation rendering

Support for writing custom shaders in Open Shading language is now available. Added motion blur rendering to blur moving objects and cameras. There is also anisotropic shading node, and the BSDF nodes can now have different properties, which can be set up using the new pump and normal mapping nodes.

Modifiers

The decimator is rewritten, now protects UV and vertex colors, has a split mode and a vertical dissolving mode to create n-gon planes. A new Laplacean Smooth Converter can reduce noise or soften the mesh while preserving edges and size. A triangular converter is also included, which can be useful for creating game elements with cooked casual maps.

Modeling

Improved bridge tool for simultaneous bridging, subdivision, surface merging and face bridging of multiple loops. The new Grid Fill Tool completes a phase from Edge Loops, X-Mirror and Project Proportional Editing, Snap to Symmetric, Face Split Option Face Split, Cut Vertex Connection.

Rotation rendering

Rendering performance on both CPU and GPU has been improved and support for newer GPUs has been added. The new haze render pass is available, now all light sources have radiation visibility supported, and new nodes have been added. Hair rendering is also enabled on the GPU.

Motion monitoring

Some new features for motion tracking and minor improvements have been made to existing ones. Key Features The marker position refinement allows you to change the position of the marker well after it has been stuffed with an object, and the Auto Keyframe option that automatically tries to find the best key frame for reconstruction.

Physics

Smoke rendering improves quality, avoids volumes and supports subframe simulation to handle fast moving emitters. Particles can now be emitted from faces created by modifiers that are not in the original mesh.

Use

Improved weight painting tools, mask converter for sequencer bands, 2D image sketch compatible with 3D sketch, excellent display of keyboard shortcuts, quick on and off multiple layers or visibility, auto-indent for Python statement multi-lines.

Python Security

Autorun Python scripts can now be controlled more securely.

The most anticipated new features for bicycle renderer include warp motion blur, fire / smoke and volume rendering and packing API. The UI now allows drag-and-drop popups and resizable preview widgets. There are new interpolation types in animation with “equation easing” presets. Modeling now allows for “split normals” and sculpture / painting has the new HSL color wheel and dyntopo standard detail. Game Development now allows you to disable logic bricks, multi-threaded animations, broadcast-only products, and “unlimited” action layers. Freestyle NPR Render features new hard strokes feature and line sorting options.
