Unity has evolved to be the perfect MMO and virtual world client, both in the browser and stand-alone. Stream in limitless landscapes as your users travel your universe, customize characters, and load infinite locations and virtual items on demand. When Funcom, makers of Anarchy Online and Age of Conan, decide to use Unity for their upcoming browser based MMO project, you know it has to be good.

Release of Cheetah3D 4.6.2

dunkelstein — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 01:44:19 +0000

Cheetah3D 4.6.2 was released. Version 4.6.2 is mainly a bug fix release but it also adds support for the Mitchell pixel reconstruction filter which allows sharper renderings than the formally used Gaussian filter. This version also improves the FBX exporter, especially if you want to import the Cheetah3D generated FBX files with the 2009 FBX SDK.

Cheetah3D 4.6.2 will be probably the last 4.x update before the release of Cheetah3D 5.0. If you bought Cheetah3D 4.x after the 24th Jan. 2008 you will be already entitled to a free update to Cheetah3D 5.0.
