Anim8or v0.85 Beta 1 is out!!!!

[Sachiel7]

Actually enviornment maps are easy in anim8or, and it has had raytracing for a while. But the main reason I like it is the modelling methods it uses fit me perfectly.
We're using anim8or for alot of our 3D animation entry this year.

Like what?

We e-mailed Autodesk abot weather we could use programs other than max & etc. The said it's OK as long as it is not a compeditor. (I think that means we can use Anim8or. )

Doesn't it use POVRay for rendering? I can't remember where I read that (POV-Ray website I think,) but if so the raytracing part wouldn't suprise me.

But from what I've seen, the stuff that comes out of Blender looks nicer than the stuff coming out of anim8or. But maybe its just not attracting such a large group of artists like blender is, or somthing.
