3Delight for Softimage 4 release

DNA Research Announces "3Delight for Softimage 4.0"
With new path tracing technology and interactive re-lighting

Singapore – September 23rd, 2013 – DNA Research announces the release of 3Delight for Softimage 4.0, a major evolution of our fully integrated renderer for Autodesk ® Softimage 3D animation software for visual effects and games production. Building on top of an already solid base, this new version introduces a new, blazingly fast, path tracing technology which allows for real time re­lighting operations. Combined with a simplified workflow, new physically plausible materials and many additional features, including multi­channel EXR support, polygonal aperture for depth of field, new ­sharper­ subsurface algorithm and an easy procedure to add custom materials.

Highlights of 3Delight for Softimage 4.0
  • New Path Tracing Technology ­ Alongside our production­proven REYES technology, we now provide a new exceptionally fast path tracing rendering technology. The algorithm allows for extremely fast multi­bounce global illumination as well much improved performance on high­complexity scenes.


  • Re­lighting ­ Modifications to lights, materials and cameras are immediately visible in the render region. Progressive rendering allows for rapid iterations for lighting artists and for look development.


  • Performance ­ This new version is at least ten times faster than previous releases. Memory consumption has been greatly reduced and 3Delight for Softimage is much more responsive overall.


  • Physically Plausible Materials ­ We include easy to use and physically plausible materials along with this release. The materials can simulate a large variety of surfaces, including coated surfaces, skin, glass and surfaces with subsurface scattering. A minimal set of parameters still allow the modeling of a variety of different materials while staying very artist­friendly.


  • High­end quality, speed and robustness ­ Built on top of a production proven and pioneering render engine, 3Delight for Softimage will bring years of film rendering experience to VFX studios.
