Release of Cheetah3D 4.6.2


By: aurora
(Sept. 16, 2008) - Cheetah3D 4.6.2 was released today. Version 4.6.2 is mainly a bug fix release but it also adds support for the Mitchell pixel reconstruction filter which allows sharper renderings than the formally used Gaussian filter. This version also improves the FBX exporter, especially if you want to import the Cheetah3D generated FBX files with the 2009 FBX SDK.

Cheetah3D 4.6.2 will be probably the last 4.x update before the release of Cheetah3D 5.0. If you bought Cheetah3D 4.x after the 24th Jan. 2008 you will be already entitled to a free update to Cheetah3D 5.0.

New features in Cheetah3D 4.6.2:
  • added new Mitchell pixel reconstruction filter
  • improved FBX export and import
  • faster openeing of files with many materials
  • fixed "focus camera" hotkey bug
  • fixed bug in .sia loader
  • fixed bug in UV tweak mode (vertices didn't highlight)
  • fixed bug in mode tag (draw wire mode draws modified meshes)
  • fixed bug in mode tag (making objects editable doesn't reset tag properties)
  • fixed bug in "Save UV to PDF" tool
