FREE 3D Software Suite

DAZ is announcing the immediate limited-time availability of a FREE 3D Software Suite
including the full retail versions of DAZ Studio 4 Pro, Bryce 7 Pro and Hexagon 2.5

The availability of these extremely popular tools for free will allow an even larger number of customers to enjoy the benefits of creating their own 3D art and animations without a significant financial investment. Current customers can feel confident in sharing this opportunity with family and friends.

Not sure if they used other Daz software such as carrara I havent had time to ask in the forum just spotted it before I went to bed, and thought it was cool and posted it here.

There are plugins for particles ect for daz but I know carrara uses them also, But to me it looks like Daz Studio using a toon shader while saving out the rendered animation.

Here is all he commented "FREAK FLAG Here comes the Mummies! Awesome Daz Animation!"

and used "Awesome Video of animation using iPiSoft from Truebones." for the BVH animations.

The offer has now been extended until the 31st March 2012..

Here are a couple of renders I did tonight, I will dig out more, I thought hmm soldiers would be good for here. I did mean to save them as transparant PNG but saved the renders in Jpg.. I always manipulate them after rendering but messed up so here are the raw renders and one manipulated..

Only downside is they spam your email account and you don't get very many models/mods for free.

It is sort of like a DLC version of 3d editing.
