Inivis has released AC3D 4.0 of its 3D graphics package. AC3D lets you
create 3D models for games, design graphics and logos, and for general
3D visualization. The new version includes subdivision surfaces, boolean
operations, 2D/3D text, and faster rendering of high polygon count models.
The program features fast real-time OpenGL graphics views (2D and 3D)
with a click-and-drag user interface. It allows multipoint and polygon
editing down to vertex level and includes a texture coordinate editor.
Many 3D graphics file formats are supported, including 3Dstudio, VRML,
POVray, and Renderman. Windows and Linux versions are available.
