Anti-Aliasing rendering of Videos and Snapshots

Export of a animations as a series of images. This allows for the creation of animated GIFs using a third-party program, or post-processing effects such as motion blur.

Additional export formats including DirectX, the preferred export format for 3D Canvas, 3D Studio, TrueSpace, AutoCAD, Wavefront, WorldToolKit, RAW and Microsoft Train Simulator.

More import formats including Wavefront (obj), WorldToolKit (nff), and Raw triangles (raw).

Creation of animated skeletons using BioVision Motion Capture (bvh) files.

Support for raytraced rendering using the POV-Ray raytracing engine. POVRay is a superb free raytracing engine that is capable of producing photo-realistic images.

Scripting using VBScript, JScript (JavaScript) or any other scripting language that supports the Windows Script Host.

Post Rendering effects using Photoshop Filters

Motion Blur in recorded Animations.

Radiosity Lighting when rendering using the POV-Ray raytracing engine.

Atmospheric Effects when rendering using the POV-Ray raytracing engine.

Additional POVRay material attributes including Brilliance, Reflection, Iridescence, Roughness, Metallic and Patterns including Bumps, Dents, Ripples and Wrinkles.

Refraction when rendering using the POV-Ray raytracing engine.

Focal Blur when rendering using the POV-Ray raytracing engine.

Glowing lights when rendering using the POV-Ray raytracing engine.
