Autodesk updates 3ds Max Design modelling software

Autodesk has announced Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2010, the latest version of its modelling, animation and rendering software for design professionals.

The 2010 release includes a range of features and enhancements designed to accelerate design iteration and help architects achieve more sustainable designs.

Autodesk 3ds Max Design software enables architects, designers, engineers and visualisation specialists to explore, validate and communicate their creative ideas, from initial concept models to final, cinema-quality presentations.

3ds Max Design offers digital continuity with the AutoCAD, Revit and Autodesk Inventor software ranges, enabling the reuse of design data for visualisation.

At least 350 features have been added to Autodesk 3ds Max Design 2010 software.

Render-like effects in the viewport display, such as soft shadowing, exposure control and ambient occlusion, offer near photo-real quality for fast decision making.

A Graphite modelling and texturing system, which introduces at least 100 creative tools, helps designers explore and rapidly iterate their ideas.

A real-time lighting analysis solution for validating the effect of direct lighting, along with Exposure technology, helps users create more sustainable designs.

An extensive library of particle effects and flickerless rendering improvements help users communicate design intent.
