Tym razem ja nie o obniżkach na Modo ;)

Otóż The Foundry postanowiło dzisiaj uraczyć posiadaczy Modo 901 darmowym update'em, który dorzuca kilka nowych, ciekawych i przydatnych funkcji do programu! Dotyczą one głównie Matte Paintingu wewnątrz Modo, ułatwień do ustawiania kompozycji, a także pracy kamer wraz z background images (lub jak kto woli blueprintami)

 

Oto i one:

Camera matching

 

Easily match a 3D camera to a background image just by drawing on screen and using one-click set-ups: you can match position, rotation, focal length and resolution, and estimate lens distortion.

 

Projecting images

 

Choose from the Projection Texture to project images into a given texture channel, and the Projection Shader to replicate the exact pixels of the real-world image unaffected by your scene's lighting and shading.

 

Projection Ink

 

Use MODO's intuitive brush-based tools to paint projected textures directly onto UV-mapped geometry. Blend images from multiple cameras to create seamless maps that work from any angle.

 

Camera Plane modifier

 

Create an image plane with a single click; MODO will adjust size, position and rotation to keep it filling the screen as you adjust the depth. Repeat for easy multi-layered compositions and animations.

 

Physical Sun setup

 

Use image metadata—location, direction, time of day—to automatically match MODO's Physical Sun to the real-world setting. Photographed and virtual shadows will align with just a few button clicks.

Natomiast korzystając z postu Mike Jensen z forum The Foundry pozwolę sobie przekleić filmy dotyczące kilku funkcji:
