Power RhinoToMax provides translation of native Rhino models directly into 3ds Max/Viz.
Power RhinoToMax provides translation of native Rhino models directly into 3ds Max/Viz.
Now users can build high quality surface models in the powerful Rhino modelling environment and import them directly into 3ds Max/Viz for high quality renderings, animation etc.
Power RhinoToMax introduces a new precise Nurbs-based boundary representation object within Max/Viz for the most precise modelling representation within Max/Viz.
Instead of importing imprecise polygonal approximations, Power RhinoToMax uses its precise representation to generate extraordinarily smooth, crack free renderings without polygonal artifacts.
Power RhinoToMax opens a streamlined portal to the advanced 3D modelling and rendering environment of 3ds Max.
Power RhinoToMax combined with the powerful 3D modelling and rendering environment of 3ds Max/Viz is the premiere solution for design visualisation of Rhino models.
No designer who uses both Rhino and 3ds Max/Viz should be without this essential tool.
Power RhinoToMax uses a state of the art precise CAD geometric modelling kernel that has been added to 3ds Max.
It performs dynamic tessellation at render time to generate a render mesh with the appropriate level of detail based on the size of the object in the view, eliminating the need for multiple levels of detail.
Power RhinoToMax is powered by SMLib - "the modeling kernel of the future"- a Nurbs-based modelling kernel from IntegrityWare.
Power RhinoToMax contains the following features: native translation of rhino models; the ability to import precise trimmed Nurbs; user control of tessellation for display/rendering; batch import with mesh generation; manual sewing of import data; the ability to trim/untrim surfaces; and snapping to imported Rhino objects.
Power RhinoToMax sells for $295, and is available for purchase both at the nPower Software online store and through various resellers throughout the world.
A free 30-day evaluation copy can be downloaded from the nPower Software website.
