LightWave 11.5 s pokročilým rigovacím systémem Genoma

NewTek na letošním SIGGRAPHu předvedl LightWave 11.5, novou verzi svého 3D modelovacího, animačního a renderovacího software pro Windows i Mac OS X. Dle vyjádření výrobce vyjde program „v nejbližší době“ a přinese několik nových funkcí, včetně dokonalejších algoritmů pro generování UV souřadnic, nových modelovacích nástrojů pro práci se smyčkami hran, distribuci objektů na ploše cílové geometrie a funkcí pro automatizované přidávání tloušťky modelům, jejich zarovnávání na základě geometrie pozadí nebo vytváření instancí. Modernizována byla rovněž implementace fyzikálního modulu Bullet, integrace s kompozičním software Adobe After Effects a také funkce pro rigování postav, nově reprezentované modulárním nástrojem Genoma. Ten dovolí rychle vytvářet dvounohé, čtyřnohé i dvouhlavé postavy pomocí sady předem zkonstruovaných presetů páteří, křídel, rukou, nohou, dlaní a chodidel. Kompletní rigy lze navíc dále upravovat pomocí standardních nástrojů Modeleru... Více informací najdete na stránkach NewTek-u. [fbshare type="button"]

Rychlé pole a bezpečné pole...? Pro školení Davinci Resolve systému (10.8. v Praze) jsme potřebovali opravdu rychlé a bezpečné diskové pole. Tady je recept: 1x 8mi disková klec od Stardomu s miniSAS rozhraním 1x Highpoint Rocketraid  2722 řadič 8x 1TB (dle chuti lze přidat i s větši kapacitou) disk Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 To vše pečlivě zamícháme, necháme vykynout, zformátovat a odměnou nám budiž v RAID5 tato vysoká rychlost:

 Pokud si budete chtít vyzkoušet výkon vašeho disku, tak tuto aplikaci najdete v ovladačích pro karty Decklink a Intensity nebo pro Apple je ke stažení na Appstoru.

Pro registrované uživatele EDIUSu je ke stažení update na verzi 6.51.
