Overview
What's New
What is New in v2
? see the press release
Aartform Curvy 3D 2.0 has new volumetric sculpting
tools that makes basemesh creation incredibly easy. You can draw
the
shapes for your model then merge the shapes together to create a
seamless base mesh. This is great for rapid content creation and
produces an even mesh for detailing in other modelling software.
Curvy is
great at organic art, and now adds a full set of digital clay tools to
its drawing toolset. Warp brushes let you sculpt as easily as you can
paint colours onto the surface. You can pinch, and buldge, roughen,
smooth and flatten the model easily. 3D Sculpting is easy and fun with
Curvy.
Artists
with an interest in getting into computer graphics appreciate the
sketch based graphic tools and intuitive controls to shape and sculpt
models in Curvy - it is all simple and non-technical, you don't have to
work with individual triangles. And it is easy to use Curvy models with
programs like Bryce, Poser, Fragmotion & Meshlab, both for import
and to export then render.
Curvy has improved obj
export
so it is easier to use Curvy models in other
rendering software. You can also save hi-resolution screenshots from
Curvy's views for use in another graphics program, and Curvy's TGA
screenshots support Alpha for easy compositing in your graphics program.
Originally a sketch-based sculpting program, Curvy now lets you create image based 3D models
using a simple image inflate tool. This is handy
for photo based modelling and for shapes that are much easier to create
as a graphic design rather than a 3D model.
Lighting
and texturing are easy in Curvy as the viewports are always use
the
best realtime render settings. You can paint on bump and displacement
maps and see the results as you paint. Image creation is WYSIWYG making
for friendly artist software. Curvy's realtime renderer lets you create
a wide range of materials (eg: skin, glass, metal) using lightmaps.
A sculpting tool designed for easy 3-d modelling, Curvy
is compatible with most leading graphic tools. Curvy has been used as
fast concept visualization software, image creation, illustration
artwork, and game modelling, and is increasingly used to generate
basemesh geometry for hi-resolution sculpting.
Curvy 3D
2.0, has new Modelling Commands, new Sculpting
Tools, a Posing System and integration with Dogwaffle.
Also screenshots can now be saved with an alpha channel as TGA at up to
5x screen resolution.
What was New in v1.5
?
Curvy 3D 1.5, has new Import and Export choices, new Curve Editing
Tools,
and a set of Mesh Warping Tools. Also the maximum
resolution of meshes has been increased and a High-Res Screenshot command added.
In addition to
better tools Curvy 1.5 now has an extended lightmap library you can use.
Finally,
this help file is now available from the help menu inside
