One reason I've ditched Artlantis for LW (for now) is the texture mapping quirks in Artlantis. In AC (LW), you have to adjust your lights, render to see what is happening, adjust your lights some more, etc. Also, moving and adjusting lights in Artlantis is a dynamic thing, seen in the preview window (an approximation anyway). IMHO, for most users who want a little more interactivity in the material application/definition and scene set-up process than is provided by AC, Artlantis is the choice for ease of use. (The power and flexibility of these packages is astounding though.) Today's price for Artlantis 4.5 - around $250 in the US at Objectsonline, as I recall, and the 100 euro posted here, make it a bargain, especially since it would qualify you to upgrade to Artlantis 5 when it is released.Ĭ4D and the other 'professional' packages produce stunning images, but only after a much steeper learning curve, more set-up time, and a much higher purchase price. None of the beta testers is authorized to discuss this next version any further. If you produce any animations, VR panoramas or objects, the interactive nature of setting them up and previewing them in Artlantis 4.5 is far superior to AC also.Īrtlantis 5 promises radiosity and preliminary public images suggest that the results could be quite good.
As Kliment says, you are able to fine tune materials much more quickly than in AC with immediate feedback and the shadow control is still better than what we have in the AC implementation of LW today.
