Hey folks,

I am very happy to announce the official release of emPolygonizer2 version 2.0 for Softimage 2011 SP1 (Win32, Win64, Linux64).
This version 2.0 has a whole bunch of improvements compared to its predecessor.

Here some of the main features:

Dynamic Plottable Octree instead of a stupid bounding volume.
Support of Lagoa Multiphysics data.
Improved "Simple as Primitive" algorithm.
Improved workflow.
ultra fast quadrangulation and improved smoothing algorithms for nicer meshes.
Vertex Colors finally work correctly.
2D / 3D Motion Blur.
User Normals.
..and about two dozens of further little features to make the hard life of a 3D artist a little easier

Here a few screenshots of the release video that was specially made for the occasion.

And here's the video, hope you like it!

Finally, the link to the emPolygonizer2 web page.

Have fun!
Eric

PS: should you own an emPolygonizer 1.xx license and be interested in this new version then please write me a short mail... the update is free

Neat, way to go! Awesome presentation also
The ripping thick cloth thing rocks. This should be bundled with Lagoa.

Have you had any job offers from AD yet?
Starts to look/feel like a must-have plug-in...
(which means, even I will finally have to purchase it...)

Amazing work Eric, again....

Great video showing off the possibilities, and a bit of Lagoa for the ones who don't run beta's

That's very impressive. :-bd

SI simulation tools are getting more and more advanced with the latest releases.
Now only good demolition tool is missing.

I am not promising anything here, but I might be working on something going into that direction

Stay tuned,

Cool! I worked on Rayfire on Max lately. It acutally is a fracture tool plus PhysX engine.
With a set of rules for different fracturing.
It allowed a great and fast work.
