It seems that some people have received this newsletter from Eovia . I pass it along, for those like me who, thinking they was subscribed, didn't receive it . litst litst.@freesbee.fr ----------------------------------- Hello, As you know, EOVIA has been working over the last few months towards re-branding MetaCreations Carrara and bringing it back to market. We are happy to inform you that the release of the new product is imminent. This is a pre-announcement, aimed at making you aware of the upcoming release. A full press release will be available shortly. The target release date is Monday, June 18, 2001. We have completed the process of bug-fixing and re-branding Carrara to an Eovia product under the name: Carrara Studio(TM). Carrara Studio--The Successor of Ray Dream Studio and Infini-D(TM), the most popular 3D graphics applications for the Macintosh and Windows, is the complete, extensible and affordable 3D solution for modeling, animation, rendering, and special effects. Optimized for blazing performance, Carrara Studio enables full real time scene manipulation and high-quality 3D rendering up to eleven times faster than its predecessors. With an elegant, intuitive and uncluttered user interface, Carrara Studio delivers professional results without a professional learning curve. Whether experienced in 3D or not, Carrara Studio is the clear choice for every digital artist, web designer and multimedia producer. In addition to re-branding, Eovia has added new features to Carrara Studio: - Amapi 3D v5, a complete NURBS modeler. - Smart Pack, a set of 25 new plug-ins - Carrara QuickTour, an interactive tutorial based on an innovative technology. Existing Carrara users will be able to get a free re-branded, bug fix update via download, or purchase the new package at strong discounts if they want to get the new features, materials and models collections included on the CD.
