TextEffectorPro includes TrueType and PostScript Type 1 font support, extrude, bevelling and more to create free-flowing 3D text. Rendering: With the powerful render engine capable of Global Illumination, you can use Photon Mapping, Path Tracing, Raytracing and Radiosity to render photorealistic imagery with amazing lighting, reflection, and refraction effects, soft shadows and natural color bleeding on surfaces. CALLISTO speeds up your render and automatically smoothes curves for supple shapes.
New Lasso and Trace selection tools provide even more convenient methods of selecting polygons and other objects. Pan and Zoom tools have been added to the Toolbox for keyboard-free navigation. Continuous mode allows for multiple tool operations without the hassle of re-selecting tools each time. Brand new mesh editing tools provide an easy way to modify your polygon mesh data, all accessable from the new Mesh Toolbox New ToonRenderer for cartoon or sketch-style images.
