3D Crafter (formerly 3D Canvas) Description

3D Crafter is a real-time 3D modeling and animation program that incorporates an intuitive drag-and-drop approach to 3D modeling. Complex models can be constructed from simple 3D primitives, or created using 3D Crafter's Object Building Tools. Modeling tools are provided to deform, sculpt, and paint 3D objects. Creating an animated scene is as simple as positioning the objects within your scene for each point in time in your animation. 3D Crafter will ensure that the resulting animation runs smoothly. Your animation can be stepped through a frame at a time, viewed in real-time, or recorded to a Video (AVI) file so that you can distribute your creation. Tool roll-up groups allow you to customize the 3D Crafter interface so that only those items you use most frequently are visible. And if you need access to a less frequently used feature, the tool roll-up is always one click away. The standard version of 3D Crafter is a fully functional product provided as freeware. Upgrades are available for those who require additional features either for game development or for rendering photo-realistic images. 3D Crafter (formerly 3D Canvas) main features: Hardware Accelerated Rendering using Microsoft's Direct3D Real-Time rendering Animation with Spline-Based Interpolation Material Palette that allows you to mix color, texture, texture wrap orientation, Ambient, Specular, Diffuse and Transparency, as paint for objects Nearly thirty 3D primitives including Cube, Sphere, Cone, Cylinder and Torus An assortment of lights including Ambient, Directional, Point, Area and Spot lights Lathe Object Building Tool using B-Spline curves Extrude Object Building Tool using B-Spline curves Skeletal Animation Inverse Kinematics 3D True Type Fonts Painting Tools Object Face and Point Editing Smooth, Flat and Wireframe Rendering Fog, including Linear, Exponential and Exponential Squared Scene Background Images Undo/Redo of all modeling operations Library storage of commonly used Textures, Materials and objects Scene Hierarchy that permits the creation of complex objects made of multiple parts that behave as a single entity Cut, Copy and Paste of objects Simulated Shadows Import of DirectX (x) 3D objects Export of POVRay (pov) Constrain Operations by Axis Object Merge Snap To Grid Deform Tool Smooth Operation Extrude Operation Bend Operation Material Operation Crease Operation Taper Operation Divide Operation Edge Operation Invert Operation What's new in 3D Crafter (formerly 3D Canvas) : All import formats are now included in the freeware version of 3DCrafter.
