Atangeo Balancer 2.0 ist erschienen

Heute wurde Version 2.0 von Atangeo Balancer veröffentlicht. Die aktuelle Promo ist immer noch bis zum 15.01.2012 gültig. Hier noch einen Übersicht der Neuerungen:

Balancer 2.0 features robust and easy to use precise pixel-based tolerance simplification. Now you can easily obtain desired visual quality just in one click, without thoroughly inspecting simplified models at different triangle count.

You specify error tolerance in pixels (say 3 pixels) and your viewport (say 1024 by 1024), and in one click you get a simplified model, which satisfies your quality requirement. From any viewing direction, the resulting model's silhouette won't differ by more than 3 pixels.

All the rest of new features and improvements we worked on we also added to Balancer 1.5.1 for those who purchased Balancer 1.x. Here is a brief list:

• Simplification: even further improved robustness and feature preservation
• New mesh processing: T-Junction elimination
• New: show/hide applies on multiple selected objects
• New: isolation of displaying selected objects for easier inspection
• New: ability to save/export selected and/or visible objects only
• New: customization of mouse wheel direction
• Many minor fixes and improvements
• Mac: random crashes on some systems are finally fixed
• Balancer for Mac is now officially stable!
• All Mac users of Balancer 1.x are highly recommended to update to Balancer 1.5.1.
