K-3D 0.8.0.1 Free download

K-3D is the free-as-in-freedom 3D modeling, animation, and rendering system for Win32 operating systems. K-3D features a robust, object-oriented plugin architecture, designed to scale to the needs of professional artists, and is designed from-the-ground-up to generate motion-picture-quality animation using RenderMan-compliant render engines. We strongly recommend the Aqsis render engine for use with K-3D. K-3D's innovative interactive tutorial system will introduce you to basic use of the program. New tutorials can easily be recorded and shared with the rest of the community. K-3D allows you to create and edit documents in multiple realtime OpenGL solid, shaded, texture-mapped views. You can even model, animate, and interact with animations while they play back for maximum productivity! Features: Workflow · Procedual modeling and animation. · Interactive tutorials. · Unlimited hierarchical undo/redo. Viewing · Camera: pan/tilt, zoom, dolly, modeling and tripod modes. · Viewing Modes: Detailed selection of visible features. · Hide / unhide geometry. Modeling · Powerful scene graph procedual modeling with complete modeling history. · Selection: Objects, meshes, faces, edges, patched, curves, point groups, point. · Geometry types: Polygon, NURBS, subdivision, blobby. · 3D Primitives: Cone, circle, cushion, cylinder, disk, grid, paraboloid, polyhedon, sphere, torus. · Boolean modeling operations. · Text: FreeType? support. · Instantiation: Create duplicates without adding gemometry to the scene. Animation · Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) allows arbitrary dataflow - any object property can be connected to any other compatible property. · Animate any value. · Unlimited number of animation channels. · Bezier curve channels. · Animate modeling operations.
