Press Release from Terragen 2 and XfrogPlants
LOS ANGELES, CA -- May 2009 -- Spring has sprung -- at least virtually -- with Terragen 2 and XfrogPlants' new software collaboration. Planetside Software and Xfrog, Inc. have united in support of a common goal: to create the most highly realistic virtual ecosystem software available.
With the ability to create tiny rock gardens, sweeping vistas or entire planets, Terragen 2 with XfrogPlants puts the virtual Earth at your fingertips, and with animation, the user can bring the world to life. At its basic incarnation, Terragen 2 with XfrogPlants includes 440 unique plant species and 1300 models, a vast array compared to 150 plant species or less elsewhere in today's market.
Terragen 2 with XfrogPlants is ideal for design professionals interested in applying landscape design to any project -- from film to architecture; from modeling to urban planning. Planetside Software and Xfrog, Inc.'s client base includes many major production companies, such as Sony/Imageworks, Pixar, Dreamworks, and Disney. With the possibility of creating entire ecosystems in conjunction with other popular software (including Maya, 3ds Max, Cinema4D, and others), the design professional can apply photorealistic landscaping and vegetation to a multitude of digital media.
"Terragen 2 with XfrogPlants is very exciting for us because we have watched as Terragen developed over the past several years to today's Terragen 2, which is a wonderful high-end production solution with extremely high render quality," said Stewart McSherry of Xfrog, Inc. "Adding all 22 libraries of XfrogPlants into the product gives Terragen users the ability to include large populations of trees, shrubs, palms, flowers, cacti, groundcover, and more into their scenes, allowing for the creation of entire ecosystems of incomparable quality."
