Artlantis 4 - iVisit 3D Panoramas
Friday 03 February, 2012


iVisit 3D is an innovative and easy way to present panoramas of your projects online or on an iPad/iPhone. iVisit 3D uses only still images and not a real 3D model or animation, making the calculations and navigation very fast. Developed especially for architects and designers, iVisit 3D allows users to view and share a project by navigating between viewpoints on the floor plan, in a palette of thumbnail preview images, or directly within the 3D views.

Create a realistic virtual tour inside your project with multi-node panoramas. Artlantis 4 automatically creates everything needed to view the panoramas. iVisit 3D app is available in two versions (Lite and Pro). iVisit 3D Lite is free, but is limited to one viewing per day.

Artlantis 4 "Productivity Improvements" Video
Monday 16 January, 2012


Artlantis 4 incorporates a number of new features that greatly streamline the process of getting from unfinished 3D model to final rendering. A new Horizontal material projection method simplifies working with complex roof surfaces, automatically orienting the direction of all roof textures to line up with all soffit edges in one simple step. A new Explode by Mesh function automatically separates the different meshes of a model to simplify the material assignment.

A selection of multiple objects can now be edited at the same time. In the 2D view, a series of duplicated objects can be automatically positioned on the underlying surface using gravity. The batch rendering queue can be reorganized and filtered before starting the batch job.

If you've been looking for a better way to work, this video about the productivity improvements in Artlantis 4 will show you how it can be done. Ease of use has always been one of the core philosophies behind Artlantis, and this video makes it easy to see how Artlantis 4 has raised the bar yet again. Project set up in Artlantis 4 has been refined and simplified, and processes that previously took multiple steps have now been reduced to 1 or 2 steps. Enjoy!

New Years High-Resolution Sale
Thursday 12 January, 2012


Do you use billboards in your Artlantis renderings? If you don't, or are unfamiliar with what a billboard is, read on to learn how billboards might benefit you. Billboards are flat 2D objects, usually positioned in an upright or "standing" orientation, onto which photos or textures are mapped. An alpha channel is often used to remove an unwanted background from the billboard's photo. Billboards offer the benefit of allowing you to place photo-realistic objects (in this case, people) into a scene without the downside of adding hundreds or thousands of polygons to the rendering calculations, since a billboard is composed of only one rectangular polygon. The result? Fast renderings without any sacrifice in image quality.

If you've resolved to create better renderings in 2012, you'll want these high-resolution billboards. From now until February 14, 2012, Artlantis Shopping & Travel Billboards volumes 1 & 2 are on sale at 10% off. We're also discounting the 2-pack bundle. Take advantage of this offer to expand your media collection today!
