Release Ventuz 3 V3.05

 
We are proud to announce that Ventuz 3 Version 3.05 is available for download.
Besides many bugfixes there are a few new features, such as a system lock to lock a scene to a specific dongle serial number, and a fully functional debugging of scripts using Visual Studio!
 




Other great new features are the Movie Frame Node, an alternative to the Quicktime Animation Node and available on 64bit systems, the Get World Node, with which you can get global world, view and projection matrices, Matrix and Vector Operations for mathematical operations in 4x4 matrices, and Pixel Space for the creation of pixel-accurate coordinate systems.
