Nighttime Rendering Demos

Nightime lighting and rendering, (also known as deferred rendering), is now demoing to current and prospective customers. We took a little while to do this because we wanted to get it right. CityScape's nighttime rendering will handle hundreds of headlights, streetlights, and other light sources. The renderer is completely dynamic, which means we can adjust parameters on the fly. No baked lightmaps here! It's controlled through CityScape's Astrometrics widget, so when you adjust the settings for the time of day in CityScape, the lighting reacts accordingly. To set up a meeting for a live demo, call us at +1 (760) 877-9969 or email sales@pixelactive3d.com.

CityScape & OneSAF in Orlando

CityScape can export correlated maps in Collada, Filmbox, OpenFlight, OneSAF and more. Peter Fryscak, our stellar account manager, will be at the OneSAF User's Conference in Orlando this week showing off CityScape's OneSAF export capabilities. He will be giving the talk, "Procedural Generation of OTF Terrains" on Thursday, April 22nd, from 0830 to 0900 in the Grand Ballroom. In the talk, he will be taking a geospecific location and creating correlated terrains in Collada, OpenFlight and OneSAF. For more information about the conference, go to http://www.onesaf.net/community/.

CityScape Promotion Bundled with Autodesk 3ds Max 2011

If you haven't heard the news yet, a special version of CityScape has been bundled with 3ds Max 2011 and 3ds Max Design 2011. If you are buying the latest copy on disc or online, make sure to install CityScape Autodesk Promotion. This version allows you to create one square mile cities that can be exported out to FBX for use with Autodesk products. For support and feedback, check out our active forums.
