OpenGL

Increase your productivity with LightWave's implementation of OpenGL.
Now, you can see objects in solid shaded views in realtime as you model and animate.

Now, you can see the effect of lights in realtime. That includes distant, point, and spot lights.

MetaNURBSTM

This is the tool every 3D company has been trying master, and we got there first. Finally, a merger between NURBS and polygonal modeling. Imagine all of the organic power of NURBS with the ease of use of polygons.

NewTek has smashed the polygon/spline barrier with MetaNURBSTM.
Create human forms, amazing creatures, aerodynamic vehicles, realistic clothing, BUILD ANYTHING!

MetaMation

This is the organic animation tool that lets you create your character animation using low res objects for maximum efficiency. Then when you are set to render, LightWave automatically applies the Metaform algorithm to smooth out the object to the desired level.

This will eliminate cross talk between bones and allow for more realistic skin folds, pinches, creases, and flexing.

Better Bones

The newest incarnation of Bones allows for all sorts of super powerful applications. Now, with joint compensation, and muscle flexing your characters will come to life more than ever. Not to mention that with the latest revision of Five Point Zero (5.0C)* LightWave's bones are more accurate than ever.

*For owners of earlier revisions of Five Point Zero check out Software Updates to download the patch file for LightWave 5.0C. It's FREE!. Also, check out the massive feature list for a listing of other enhancements to 5.0C.

OTHER NEW FEATURES!!! MetaBalls modeling infinite texture layering new plug-in classes over 100 plug-in features and much more!

LightWave is used in more Hollywood facilities than any other 3D program.

LIGHTWAVE 3D IS A SERIOUS 3D APPLICATION!
LIGHTWAVE IS A TOOL FOR ARTISTS!

Let's take a look at Hollywood's demands for 3D.

• Hollywood needs 3D that looks killer.

• It's got to look real or else it doesn't work. LightWave 3D's output quality continues to crush the competition!

• They need shots done fast.

• No other 3D package combines the ease of use with the level of power that LightWave provides. All wrapped into an interface that won't get in your way.

With the introduction of LightWave 5.0 our render engine effectively improved antialiasing quality by 200 to 300 percent. Through joint research with DIGITAL DOMAIN the LightWave team has discovered a new method for rendering without a substantial increase in render times.

For years LightWave 3D has dominated the broadcast television effects market. Hollywood asked for film style render output and LightWave delivered.

Lightwave has been used on these and many more programs:-

•Star Trek: Voyager
•Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
•Space: Above and Beyond
•Babylon 5
•Sliders
•X-Files
•Unsolved Mysteries
•Blue M&Ms (commercial)
•James Bond GoldenEye
•Nixon
•Hercules
•Xena
•Bay Watch (That's right! They're Not Real!.....We mean the explosions.)
