![]() Some of the many new features in version 4.5 include: LWCAD is a complete set of standard CAD tools for LightWave created specifically for architectural design and visualization. Additional features include After Effects Interchange tools, a Shadow Catcher for compositing objects in a scene, Linear Color workflow for control over color profiles, support for multiple file formats, dongle-free licensing with free technical support, and more. LightWave 11.5 also offers interactive flythrough and walkthrough technology with plug-and-play support for the 3Dconnexion SpaceNavigator device. And the rendering for print capability sets the camera frame to the correct dimensions for print, taking into account DPI and bleed. Interactively view global illumination and work in progress in a viewport window with Viewport Preview Renderer (VPR), which supports depth-of-field (DOF), motion blur and anaglyph stereo as well as instancing and volumetric systems in the interactive render window. ![]() Instancing can also be used to randomly scale, position, rotate and surface objects differently from the source object.Īdvanced Rendering Options: LightWave’s production renderer is the same renderer used to create highly realistic visualizations for television and film, supporting up to 999 render nodes in one LightWave license. Instancing Features: Duplicate object masses with little memory overhead while taking advantage of new features like object control for scale, stretch, offset and rotate. Interactive Modeling Tools: Introduces new tools such as UV Unwrap, Edit Edges, Place Mesh, Slice, Thicken and Heat Shrink to complement the already robust 3D modeling toolset. Time lapse settings allow for easy day and night cycles, and photometric illumination using standard Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) files. The Sun Spot Modifier provides accurate sun positioning based on latitude, longitude and time zone. Multiple Lighting Solutions: Offers image-based lighting and Skytracer for physically-based day and night lighting scenarios. Real World Measurement Capabilities: Utilizes real-world measurement units with numeric conversion via a mini-calculator and support for metric and imperial values. Some of the many features in LightWave 11.5 for architectural visualization and animation include: “By collaborating with the LightWave 3D Group to put together this new Architectural Design Bundle, architects and designers now have all the tools they need to create professional 3D visualizations and walkthroughs that are impressive and affordable.” “LightWave and LWCAD have always had a strong presence in the architectural community,” says Viktor Velicko, creator of LWCAD. ![]() The bundle includes a powerful set of features that architects, set designers and interior designers can use to cost-effectively create professional 3D visualization and animation for the most demanding design projects. The LightWave 3D® Group, a division of NewTek, Inc., announced today a new Architectural Design Bundle that couples LightWave 11.5 3D modeling, animation and rendering software with WTools3D’s LWCAD 4.5 CAD tools for LightWave. ![]()
