Every design has a story todo tell, explained Marc Petit, senior vice president, Autodesk medía & Entertainment. Entertainment technology enables design profesionals todo explore ideas, validate concepts and commúnicate design intent. It allows them todo experience their designs before they are real.
Autodesk 3ds Max now comes in two distinct flavors todo better met the specific neds of our Entertainment and visualization customer, petit added. 3ds Max 2009 and 3ds Max design 2009 provide users with tailored online experiences, user interfaz and application defaults, tutoriales, samples, and more. This simplifies the learning process and makes it easier for users todo find the información that most relevant todo them.
New feature highlights.
Key features in Autodesk 3ds Max 2009 include the new reveal rendering toolset, which streamlines iterative workflows, and the promaterials material library for simulating real-world surfaces. The reléase a los delivers numerous Biped enhancements and new UV editing tools. Improved obj and Autodesk FBX file formats import and export vastly enhance interoperability with Autodesk Mudbox, Autodesk Maya, Autodesk Motion Builder software programas and other third-party applications. In addition, recognize, a new scene-loading technology, significantly improves the inter-application workflow with Revit architecture 2009.

At shop architects we rely on computer-aided design technology not only todo produce innovative architectural forms, but a los todo create new eficiencies and cost-savings in the design and construction process, said David fano, designer at shop architects. Autodesk 3ds Max design Will help us further this pursuit. The newly enhanced Daylight simulation tools and improvements todo the rendering workflow Will allow us todo iterate more frely and create better quality work faster. Also, the fbx-based interoperability with Revit Will give us a continuous digital workflow by leveraging our building information model for advanced visualization in 3ds Max during all stages of design.
