3D Rad v7.03b Now Fully Backwards Compatible
Posted by:
Steve at 6:04:52 am
|
The September 2010 release of 3D Rad comes with a fully working beta of version 7, now able to play any project created with version 6, using NVidia PhysX engine in place of ODE.
Furthermore, unlike previous beta releases, it now lets you compile to stand-alone projects that run on the final user PC without requiring the PhysX system software installed, thus solving all compatibility problems once and for all.
This month also sees version 6.47 of 3D Rad, which includes important new features like the ability to dynamically generate/remove visual imposters based on the position of a reference 3d mesh, becoming public and available for download at the 3D Rad website.
3D Rad is a freeware, user-friendly 3d editor with a straightforward developing workflow and ready-to-use physics simulation. You can use it to create any sort of stand-alone, interactive 3d project for Windows 7/Vista/XP.
Ideal for CG artists and non-coders, but flexible enough to meet the needs of expert developers as well.

Koonsolo RPG Editor Adds Auto Layering Tilemap Editing
Posted by:
Koen Witters at 5:26:02 am
|
The Koonsolo RPG Editor (http://www.koonsolo.com/rpgeditor) improves on the process of designing tilemaps by using a smart technique called "Tilemap Auto Layering". Designers don't need to worry about layers anymore, and now they can just place the tiles straight onto the tilemap. The program then calculates which correct layer to place them on. This new technique makes tilemap creation faster and easier. If you want to see this tilemap auto layering in action, watch the video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEWZtGm89xM.
