 For all those who thought muscular systems were only for major production studios and required complex custom rigging and scripting knowledge, we are happy to introduce Hercules, Di-O-Matic's innovative muscular animation plug-in for 3ds max.
Simply drag Hercules muscles and attach them to your character’s existing rig. They will immediately deform, bulge, compress and stretch as your CG character moves within your scene. Or use any 3D object to simulate sub-surface deformations. Hercules deformation supports just about any 3D object.
Hercules works together with all 3ds max skinning modifiers like the built-in Skin, Physique and Bones Pro. Hercules works wonders on existing skinning by causing the skin to react based on underlying muscle deformations.

 SpheronVR has developed the SpheroCamHDR from the ground up for capturing outstanding fully spherical High-Dynamic Range images. The system captures incidental real-world radiance over the full sphere in a single pass and stores the image data in one of several widely accepted file formats. The high resolution gives plenty of detailed structure for reflection mapping and background shots as well.
The SpheroCamHDR is the first-ever camera to feature full-fledged HDR technology. It is a system solution in itself with greater potential for dynamic range than is likely to be found in most scenes. With up to 26 f-stops in one image the SpheroCamHDR captures all levels of light intensity, in all directions, and that in a single scanning pass. Image underexposure and overexposure are problems that don’t apply to the SpheroCamHDR.

 This video tutorial is created by artist Mahmoud Keshta in 3ds max by using Mental Ray. In this 12 minutes video tutorial (without sound) will explain you how to use Sunlight, Skylight in the daylight interior scene and render through mental ray. After rendering in 3ds max, Mahmoud wll show you the color correction in Photoshop. In the end of the tutorial will give you some notes which will help you in achieving realistic results in future projects. Overall, this is very informative tutorial which will explain you everything without a sound.

 Liquid+ is the advanced NPR (Non Photo Realistic) renderer plug-in that lets 3D artists truly realize the blotted-style or soft-style fascinating rendering images on 3DCG.
You can create the perfect aesthetic rendering expressions by your own brush patterns with abundant settings or combining with Pencil+.
Liquid+ is compatible with the scan line rendering of 3ds Max, so it is possible to apply to the specific object in your scene.

 EI Technology Group (EITG), developer and publisher of innovative 3D software products, is proud to announce the public beta release of Sonica, a powerful plug-in for Autodesk's Maya. Sonica is the first in a series of plug-ins for Maya and is a powerful tool to help animators synchronize their animation to sound. Sonica extracts the spectrum and waveform and makes it available to Maya animators via dependency nodes. Sonica is available for both Windows and Macintosh platforms.

 F-Edge is a 3ds Max plug-in that gets rid of the sharp and flat edge look of standard angular objects. As in the real world, f-Edge simulates the slight soft curvature over the selected edges of the object. It comes with a very small rendering time penalty and gives that non-"computer generated" soft look to the object. Especially suited for large-scale city and architecture projects where edge smoothing by hand is almost impossible.

 The film Goat Story - The Old Prague legend, will be the very first 3D animated film in Central Europe and the Czech Republic. Its preparation already started in 2003, when the project itself was supported by the European programme MEDIA and gained a grant. From January to November 2004 a literary script and the main art conception were in process and many tests and 3D animations were created. Since the summer of 2006 the animation itself has been taking place in a studio, that has been established for this purpose only. This studio currently belong to one of the biggest in the Czech Republic thanks to the large number of Maya 3D licenses.
