IC Posted August 22, 2008 Share Posted August 22, 2008 (edited) If you've dismissed it in the past, it's worth checking out what is quite a spectacular update for our needs. Recent or new features include: -Revamped, fast radiosity rendering with advanced caching, -Hugely improved lights (IES, customisable lights and much more,) -Nodal Surfacing including physically correct dielectrics etc, -Real Lens Cameras, -Advanced Cameras (surface Baking, Ortho etc) -New Hair/Fur system, -FBX, DXF, 3DS, better OBJ support, -3rd party options including Maxwell, Fry, Kray, Fprime (the first fully interactive realtime previewer), HD Instance (a truly wonderful instancing solution) and one of the best CAD/3D modelling solutions available, LWCAD. All for a very reasonable price which includes a great modeller, full animation capabilities and 999 render nodes. Online Brochure: http://www.newtek.com/lightwave/9.5_webbrochure.pdf p.s. I don't work for Newtek, nor am I in any way affiliated-just a happy user! Edited August 22, 2008 by IC Forgot something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very fast and great quality. I too am very excited with the new stuff 9.5 has delivered on. What's funny Iain, is you can get LW, LWCAD, Kray, fPrime, & HD Instance, all for less then a full package of other 3D apps. It's truely an amazing, affordable, and underated full 3d package. I love LWCAD! Edited August 23, 2008 by Larry_g1s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry_g1s Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 P.S. Here are a couple of videos I did showing off some of the new features coming out for LWCAD v3 making arch viz in LW 9.5 that much better. I had a chance to put some videos together for demonstrating the roof tools I used on this project. I hope these videos help and demonstrate this amazing plug-in.
