SplutterFish's Brazil Rendering System v. 1.2, the advanced, fully-integrated rendering suite for Discreet's 3ds max software, is now available for 3ds max .6.
"As a strategic partner with Discreet, SplutterFish is committed to ensuring that Brazil r/s meets the demanding standards of quality and compatibility for this latest version of 3ds max that the renderer is already known for," said SplutterFish ceo Scott Kirvan.
The Brazil r/s toolkit features a familiar, easy-to-use interface that integrates seamlessly into existing production environments to provide artists a natural workflow, unprecedented control and flexibility, and a minimal learning curve. Built upon a modern and extensible rendering architecture, Brazil r/s is designed for use in heavy production environments to produce the highest levels of photorealism, stylized animation and cartoon style NPR renderings.
Brazil r/s is the only production renderer actively supported and available for Discreet's 3ds max 3, 3ds max 4, 3ds max 5, the just released 3ds max 6 animation software, as well as Autodesk's visualization software, VIZ 3 and VIZ 4. Brazil r/s is also fully compatible with nearly all third party 3ds max plug-ins, including the critical third party rendering plug-ins (materials, textures, lights, and volumetrics) that 3ds max artists depend on.
Brazil r/s v. 1.2 is available immediately to both individual artists and production facilities at the following prices:
The "Artist Bundle" includes licenses for three computers (one Brazil r/s workstation-node license and two render-node licenses) at a cost of $1,200.
The "Renderfarm Bundle" includes licenses for four computers (four render-node licenses) at a cost of $750.
