 VizUp is an ad hoc polygon reduction system that enables you to reduce the number of polygons in a complex 3D model while retaining the quality and appearance of the original. The end result of the reduction is a 3D model with a well-balanced level of details and size, which is perfect for the use in virtual reality and real-time visualization systems.
Decreasing the size of 3D models stored on the Web also lets your users and customers download them considerably faster. Not only this, VizUp can be used for effective Level-of-Details (LOD) generation. The process of reduction is extremely simple and doesn't require any advanced knowledge. VizUp automatically picks all necessary parameters without any manual interference on your side.

 nPower Software announces the release of its popular Power Translators product on the Autodesk Maya / Autodesk AliasStudio platform. Power Translators for Autodesk 3ds Max / Autodesk Viz has become the premier tool for design visualization. Now that popular tool is available for Autodesk Maya / Studio Tools. Rendering CAD data in Autodesk Maya just became easier and more effective. Power Translators Maya is the most accurate and efficient solution for importing CAD data into Autodesk Maya. Power Translators Maya imports precise NURBS data into Maya instead of transferring imprecise polygonal representations. The result is that you get a more accurate representation, and beautiful, precise renderings.Comments (2) | Views: 2193 |

 Convexity allows for the rapid creation of game levels and buildings for architectural visualizations within 3Ds Max. It also includes full exporters for the Valve .map format and the 3D Game Studio .wmp format, and works seamlessly with the Torque game engine.
Convexity's new .cvx file format allows users to easily pass data between new and old versions of Max, i.e. you can easily give work that was created in Max 2008 to someone using 3ds Max 6.
