AutoDesSys Showcases form.Z 6.1 at Macworld 2007
SAN FRANCISCO, California (Macworld), January 8, 2007 - AutoDesSys, Inc.
is please to offer the first public appearance of form.Z 6.1, the universal
binary version, at
Macworld 2007.
"While this version may look a lot like form.Z 6.0, many significant changes
have occurred behind the scenes", said David Kropp, Senior VP of
Development. Alexandra Yessios, VP of Sales and Marketing , added that
"judging by the numbers of update orders, our customers must agree with the
direction form.Z is taking. New orders are on the climb as well". Please
visit Booth #2021 for a live demo.
The major improvements in a nutshell:
- The Macintosh version is universal binary and runs natively on
Macintosh Intel hardware. The performance improvement is a significant
factor that has customers raving about their newly enhanced productivity
level.
- The reliability of smooth modeling operations and support of the
.sat r16 file format are a result of the integration of ACIS r16.
- LightWorks 7.6 has been integrated in form.Z 6.1 resulting in the
improvement of the reliability of RenderZone and Shaded rendering.
Additional new rendering features offered by LW7.6, including final
gather type of global illumination will also be released in the very
near future.
- form*Z 6.1 is built with a new suite of development tools that
improves performance and supports the new advancements in Lightworks and
ACIS. This same advancement makes it impossible to support the
previously available legacy DWG/DXF translators. The included DWG/DXF
plugin reads v2.5 through 2006 and writes version 12 through 2006.
- A plugin by Pylon Technical for formZ: Lighting Collection 1 has
been developed and was designed to make lighting in form.Z as fast and
easy as possible, to deliver higher quality renderings in less time.
Pylon Technical will have a stand for live demonstrations at the
AutoDesSys booth.
- A plugin for Archvision's RPC (Rich Photorealistic Content) product
is included with form*Z 6.1. RPC allows the user to place realistic
looking entities, such as people, furniture or cars without the overhead
of a large number of polygons and excessive texture maps. This is
available for Windows only.
