Autodesk® 3ds Max® 2013 animation software delivers a powerful interactive rendering experience with ActiveShade support in the NVIDIA® iray® renderer; offers a new render pass system with integrated node-based compositing; and provides industry-leading interoperability with Adobe® After Effects® and Adobe® Photoshop® software. In addition, new motion graphics, 3D animation, and siluation tools empower artists to focus more of their energy on creative, rather than technical challenges, while flexible new customization options enable them to easily configure and switch between interfaces that are optimized for the way they work. Finally, enhanced interoperability with Autodesk® Maya® 2012 and Autodesk® MotionBuilder® 2012 animation software helps facilitate pipeline integration.
3ds Max Design enables architects, designers, and civil engineers to get a deeper understanding of how projects work before they’re built. Designers can create better designs; make informed decisions; test, refine, and validate concepts; and market buildings and products that don’t yet physically exist.
Explore – Develop unique organic forms. Experiment with shape, scale, and look. Generate and control architectural entities and design concepts procedurally with scripts.
Validate – Create animated walk-throughs, line-of-sight studies, and physically near accurate daylight analysis, to help better understand and communicate how the design functions in context.
Communicate – Help customers make crucial decisions during design reviews and gain valuable buy-in during various stages of the design process with more emotionally engaging narratives.
