Monomakh 4.1

Monomakh 4.1
Size: 10.68 MB

MONOMAKH software is intended for analysis and design of monolithic reinforced concrete structures and structures with brick walls. It is possible to perform analysis of the whole structure or its separate parts and generate working drawings and reinforcement patterns for structural elements. MONOMAKH software includes several modules: BUILDING, BEAM, COLUMN, FOOTING, REWALL, SLAB, DIAPHRAGM, BRICK. These modules are integrated but they may work in stand-alone mode as well.

BUILDING module.
Model of the structure is generated from structural elements (STE). Loads are collected automatically, sections of structural elements can be determined and checked. You can generate 3D design model of the structure, perform finite element analysis and evaluate analysis results. Bill of materials is generated. Data may be exported to other modules of MONOMAKH software. Loads on footings are exported to DEF-PC and design model is exported to LIRA software.

Modules BEAM, COLUMN, FOOTING, REWALL, SLAB, DIAPHRAGM, BRICK.
Can be used in stand-alone mode or you may work with data defined in BUILDING module. Analysis and design of reinforced concrete elements. Analysis results in the form of working drawings. DXF file of the drawing and text files of reports are generated.

All modules contain extensive help system where you can find detailed information about options and tools of the module.

You can create and analyse design models of the structure in the shortest possible time and produce fully detailed reinforced concrete drawings with minimum effort.

Design first for 3D Artists

Design first for 3D Artists
2005 - 181 Pages - PDF - 5.33 MB

A useful book for graphic modelers. (2d and 3d) check it out.

Working on a project for most 3D artists means hitting the keyboard first without ever touching a pencil. But in the world of animation, the pencil is revered as the most powerful tool in the animation process, because it directly addresses the design aesthetic of an animated project. Production design is the process by which an artist establishes the tone for a particular film by offering a unique aesthetic vision that is in support of the story. As a 3D artist, to overlook design is to overlook the fundamental process that greatly influences not only the film itself but also your contributions as a professional. To combine the disciplines of traditional design and 3D animation is a choice that only you can make.

The result of this choice is a broader artistic skill set that increases your creativity and consequently increases your worth as a professional. Plain and simple, this book is going to teach you easy-to-use design techniques that will make you a better designer and increase your worth as a 3D artist. The most important element in any animated film is story and, as they say, story is king. The goal of a story is to take the audience on a journey through the lives and experiences of the characters within. Whether that journey is cerebral, emotional, or physical, the characters in that world should give the audience a point of view that is unique and compelling. As a designer, your role within a production is as an aesthetic problem solver who is there to support the story. As a 3D artist/animator, your role is to solve problems, but comes after the design process. Design and animation are two different disciplines that problem solve in two different ways, yet each has the same goal. What if we combined these disciplines into a single role that uses design to influence animation throughout the entire 3D process? This book is about that very thing. For those who are open minded about learning a valuable skill like design, this book will not only improve your animation work, but will improve your worth as a 3D artist.Production design for 3D animation is the process of using traditional drawing techniques to create characters, props, nvironments, color, lighting, compositions, and storyboards.

Zaxwerks ProAnimator v4.3.1 Portable

Zaxwerks ProAnimator v4.3.1 Portable
Size: 10.21 MB

ProAnimator comes in two forms: as a standalone application and as an After Effects plug-in. Both products act exactly the same, but the plug-in is integrated into Adobe After Effects, so you can do all of your authoring with After Effects. The standalone application doesn't require a host product, so you may generate your animated movies independent of any particular target. You may even import a standalone ProAnimator scene into the ProAnimator plug-in (or vice versa) for added flexibility.
ProAnimator includes all of the powerful 3D content creation tools as the 3D Invigorator PRO product. It also contains a next generation animation system that can be used to quickly generate complex animations that would take hours to create in other 3D applications.

3DSOM Pro 2.1.0.2

3DSOM Pro 2.1.0.2
Size: 34.95 MB

3DSOM Pro is a powerful tool for creating professional quality 3D content from still images. A wide range of objects can be modelled including those with holes and 'difficult' organic shapes. Using a conventional camera, photos of your object on a printed mat are taken from a number of viewpoints in front of a plain backdrop. The shape of the object is automatically extracted from each photo and this information is used to build a high quality 3D mesh.

What can you do with 3DSOM Pro models?
* Incorporate into 3D scenes - export your models in standard formats for importing into your existing 3D scenes.
* Publish to the web - output true 3D content in a number of web formats including our own scriptable Java format to make your web pages come alive.
* Create animations, flythroughs and movies - Use industry tools to render 3D models as movies for DVDs, web streaming, exhibitions and marketing material.

Version 2.1 of 3DSOM Pro is a major new release with numerous bug fixes and improvements. You can now import and export data in several new formats including our unique 3D Flash and Java based web formats.

Flash 3D export - this release includes a new streamed 3D web format based on the popular Adobe Flash Player 9. Software rendering using Flash's powerful AS3 scripting functions allows 3D models to be rendered interactively. The viewer file is small and compact and the models are highly compressed and streamed. See Flash 3D Export for details.
X3D, STL export - Two handy new export formats.
Support for hardware imaging rigs - fixed camera systems or computer controlled turntables are now supported. The rig is precalibrated by taking a set of photos with the 3DSOM calibration mat. The mat can then be removed and a further scans taken with the object to model. This allows more flexibility and easier masking as the mat need not be present in object shots.
Accurate scaled units - you can now enter the size of the mat by measuring the special "mat unit" marker. This allows 3DSOM Pro to export 3D models with accurate scale (in mm) or import models with millimetre units.
STL dense geometry import - STL models can now be imported (untextured) for texturing from photographs.
Improved support for large meshes - Meshes with up to 500K triangles can now be imported and efficiently decimated (with or without textures). Large meshes can also be more efficiently texture mapped from photographs.
Improved 3DS import - 3DSOM Pro now supports non-closed 3DS meshes for importing. 3DS models can then be export in 3DSOM Pro's unique web formats such as the Java and Flash formats.
