NPR1
Reyes is the first of a new line of future products
that represent the most innovative concept in non-photo
realistic render (NPR) software to date. NPR1 Reyes
achieves spectacular effects such as cartoon, portrait,
etching or oil painting and it does so by focussing
on the representational units used to interpret them
such as lines, brushstrokes, pencil strokes etc. In
other words, NPR1 takes these and links them to information
sources, (flow field, Z-buffer, luminance) allowing
the user to mix and match the combinations by modifying
the available parameters. The results are a myriad of
different effects on the render. Future versions will
open up the possibilities of this versatile approach.
This product includes the well-known CartoonReyes render.
Please keep in mind that CartoonReyes is fully integrated
into NPR1 Reyes with all this functionality in just
one product. When you install and authorize NPR1 you
have all the CartoonReyes features included. It is not
possible to install and authorize NPR1 and CartoonReyes
on the same machine. Additionally NPR1 does not run
on Windows NT.
Remember
also that NPR1 uses DirectX. Some graphics cards do
not support both DirectX and OpenGL simultaneously,
and in these cases you will need to change your current
max driver from OpenGL to Heidi or DirectX in order
to avoid conflict when using NPR1 Reyes.
This
product is available immediately from our download zone.
It comes in "ZIP" format and includes
manuals, installation instructions and information on
how to get it authorized.
Additional help files and information will be available
soon.
