e-on software has announced the immediate availability of Vue 5 Pro Studio. Vue 5 Pro Studio is the latest addition to e-on software's suite of award-winning solutions for the creation and rendering of natural 3D environments. Vue 5 Pro Studio is designed for advanced digital artists seeking extended control over the creation of natural 3D.
In complement to the already existing Mover 5 animation expansion module, e-on software is also pleased to announce the immediate availability of 3 new modules for Vue 5 Esprit: Botanica, DeepAccess and LightTune. Vue 5 Pro Studio represents the integration of these 4 modules together with Vue 5 Esprit. By offering separate extension modules, e-on software is providing Vue 5 Esprit users with the opportunity to upgrade their base package gradually.
"With this new modular approach, we are happy to take Vue 5 Esprit one step further: Vue 5 Pro Studio is the perfect solution for digital artists who require advanced control on their 3D environments without the need for the full blown professional solution, Vue 5 Infinite," said Nicholas Phelps, president of e-on software.
Vue 5 Pro studio is available for the Macintosh OS X and Windows 2000/XP platforms in English, German and French. The Japanese version will be released shortly thereafter. The standard retail price of Vue 5 Pro Studio is $399.
