Custom Sun & Sky environments can be created by users as well and combined with other lighting options available in the KeyShot HDRI Editor. Preset resolutions and locations together with day selection, time and turbidity sliders allow the creation of unlimited daylight scenarios. KeyShot 5 introduces a new Sun & Sky system for automatic creation of physically accurate geographic lighting. Available with the KeyShot Animation Add-on. Just as simple, Fade animations can be applied while adjusting the opacity of parts and groups on-the-fly which allows users to see the update in real-time as animations are created. Through KeyShot Animation users add individual transforms that add animations with a click of a button instead of managing keyframes. The new Fade animation allows users to quickly apply an animation that fades parts from one opacity level to another. All instances can be treated separately for quick appearance studies or linked to apply materials quickly, but will all update when LiveLinking or update geometry is used. Instancing of parts is available within KeyShot as a Pattern tool and completely automated in select KeyShot plugins. Instancing allows users to duplicate parts in KeyShot and on import without increasing file size. NURBS import is currently available for all geometry formats, including Creo, CATIA, Inventor, NX, Rhino, SolidWorks, Solid Edge, STEP, IGES, Parasolid and ALIAS. The advantage is crisper visuals and smaller file sizes over data imported as triangle that can display edges and gaps on close detail shots. This new import feature gives users the option to import and render NURBS geometry from their favorite 3D modeling application. NURBS ray-tracing delivers more accurate geometry with smoother edges. The KeyShot Cloud is accessible directly from inside KeyShot and online at. All resources remain on a user’s computer with a copy of the resource uploaded to the KeyShot Cloud and no scene or personal info stored online. Opening the KeyShot Cloud enables easy drag-and-drop downloading of new resources into their local KeyShot Library, and quick search features and filters to find the perfect resources for a scene. The KeyShot Cloud is the online library where users can download new resources, and share their own custom assets. A video of the new features can be viewed here. The entire list of features in KeyShot 5 can be seen and downloaded in a What’s New guide that includes information on how each feature works. Animation users gain more power with the introduction of Fade Animation, Motion Blur and Events, while Pro users will receive NURBS ray-tracing, HDRI Editor updates with a new Sun & Sky System, Perspective matching and output to common 3D printer formats. Rendering workflow enhancements introduce Instancing, ability to retain textures, seven new procedurals and speed increases for rendering large models. With this, a more streamlined interface delivers a completely updated user experience, smoother interaction of materials and options, a new Ribbon menu for common tools, Favorites and advanced material display. The KeyShot Cloud leads features with the ability to download new resources and share custom assets. With KeyShot 5, we wanted to make the interface that revolutionized 3D rendering and animation even more simple to use with new ways to share resources, faster ways to work with materials, more powerful animation features and advanced capabilities. KeyShot 5 introduces enhanced usability and pro level features that allow engineers, designers and 3D professionals to make their workflow more efficient and take their visuals to the next level. With Luxion rendering technology bringing faster rendering speed and capabilities, creating images, animations and interactive visuals throughout the product development process has never been easier. Luxion is pleased to release KeyShot 5, the next generation of Luxion’s 3D rendering and animation solution.
