NewTek LightWave 3D V10 5 Pack with printed manual (Academic)

LW10EF-5ST - General Description

LightWave 3D software is the perfect combination of power, speed and value. Easy to learn and use, versatile enough for any application from award-winning visual effects to stunning hi-res print graphics, dynamic video games, powerful motion graphics and more. LightWave is a complete modeling, rendering and animation solution.

LightWave offers extensive platform support including Windows 32-bit, Windows 64-bit and Mac. LightWave also offers full support of systems with multi-core processors. In addition to LightWave's highly regarded photo-real render engine each licence comes with 999 free render nodes, making it the most affordable, efficient render pipeline option on the market. PDF Manual included. Includes free upgrade to LightWave 10 with CORE Technology.

LightWave 10 is the first release of LightWave 3D® to integrate NewTek's CORE technology with Modeler and Layout. The three elements work in unison to give you the workflow and functionality you're familiar with, along with the interactive power of the innovative CORE technologies. LightWave's speed, flexibility, value and control are the benefits you rely on and LightWave 10 delivers all that and more.

LightWave 10 benefits artists with unique features not found in any other 3D application, like Viewport Preview Rendering (VPR) and CG hardware enhancements that give you an immediate look at changes to your rendered scenes, and real-time OpenGL views of Ambient Occlusion, Bloom, Stereoscopic Anaglyph and HDRI background images. LightWave 10 delivers the power of Modeler and Layout with next generation CORE technologies, such as immersive real-time and game tools, Python-based expressions and scripting, Bullet rigid body dynamics and sophisticated UV mapping capabilities.

LightWave 3D with CORE Technology introduces the next generation development foundation for 3D products at NewTek. LightWave with CORE Technology will deliver familiar tools and workflow functionality of LightWave, with the flexibility to continue improving performance and feature sets for many years to come. This product includes a free, one year membership to the HardCORE program, which gains you access to the new LightWave CORE system as well as other benefits. You will be provided with a HardCORE membership ID number when you register your new licence.

LightWave HardCORE is an elite membership program. HardCORE members have access to preview builds of LightWave CORE, a private discussion forum for communication between members and NewTek development management, plus invitations to private events.
