Best 3ds software for free download

The icon and cursor creation has never been so effective. This product gives you ability to produce modern icons. It is a combination of powerful 3D and 2D Editor. Using this tool you can make high quality and multi-format icons compatible with Windows Vista or WinXP.
Today are many modern icons like 3D models. TIS 3D gives you ability to create your own modern 3D models in fully integrated 3D Editor that contains many basic and dynamics objects and tools. In case that integrated 3D editor can't produce what you need, you can import 3D Models from various professional 3D products(such as 3ds, obj, lwo and almost 20 other formats). Add material with texture to them, set-up lights and send the antialiased result directly to 2D Editor with or without alpha channel as a layer to do additional improvements in integrated 2D Editor. Everything in high resolution to keep the process of creation as user friendly as possible.2D Editor is an object-oriented editor based on Layer architecture. Everything in TIS 3D is object-oriented. This is a BIG PLUS in comparsion with other software products designed for icon creation because you can change everything - anytime. This makes the creation process user friendly and saves you time. 2D Editor supports standart shapes like lines, ellipses, polygons, rectangles, pen tool, bitmap layers etc. Each shape has many own properties and effects .Everything is antialiased. You can also extract the icon from EXE file or import Photoshop (PSD) or any other of almost 20 supported file formats Or you can just load a high resolution picture and smoothly stretch it to icon size.2D editor has also advanced bezier shapes.
If you are not an advanced user, you can use the third editor type named Easy 2D Editor that is non-object oriented and contains basic paintings tools.
These features combined together give you really powerful tool.The advantage is that you are not limited to create only the icons using this tool but can also use it as Image E

If you're looking for new ways to make your PowerPoint presentations stand out, Perspector will give you what you want.

Perspector lets you add a variety of 3D effects to your slides, from individual shapes to full-blown 3D diagrams. There is a library with images in it that you can use to make an immediate difference to your presentations. If you want to make your bullet lists more interesting, try out one of the 3D lists!

Editing 3D images in Perspector is easy if you've ever used 2D shapes in PowerPoint before. It works the same way - dragging a shape moves it, dragging one of the handles resizes the shape or rotates it. If you get stuck, there are some short and snappy videos included to show you how to do these things.

Perspector is the only PowerPoint tool that lets you create 3D images. There are some PowerPoint tools that let you create 3D titles, but these don't let you create 3D images and diagrams. If you want 3D titles, Perspector can do these too.

There are 3D drawing programs such as Maya and 3ds Max that could be used to create 3D images for your presentations, but since they are designed for 3D artists they are not easy to learn. Perspector has been designed exclusively for PowerPoint users. The other 3D drawing programs also don't have the PowerPoint integration that Perspector has, so they don't let you edit your 3D image directly from inside PowerPoint. This is a really great feature of Perspector because it means the 3D effects are always at your fingertips when you are working on your presentations.

VizUp Reducer is an ad hoc polygon optimization and reduction system that enables you to reduce the number of polygons in a complex 3D model while retaining the quality and appearance of the original. The end result of the reduction is a 3D model with a well-balanced level of details and size, which is perfect for the use in virtual reality and real-time visualization systems. Supports Wavefront .OBJ, VRML 2.0/97 and StereoLitho (STL) file formats.VizUp is designed specially for game developers, architects, and 3D designers. With this software in place, they get a pain-free way to reduce polygons and optimize 3D models, and presentations before publishing them on the Web. Also, VizUp simplifies LOD generation for games and virtual reality. The best thing about this software is that it saves you from time-consuming routine operations and lets you put your energy into creativity. The product has a "Fast reduction" option to let you optimize 3D models quickly and effectively select the necessary level of reduction for many models. The learning curve is minimal, so you can start your first polygon compression project in a few minutes.VizUp has been designed with the ordinary user in mind. This is reflected in its refreshingly uncomplicated user interface, which has a large 3D viewer window in the center and a toolbar with all necessary commands and options, which are hopefully not many and not difficult to understand.With the interface like this, it's no wonder a novice user can start the first reduction project in a few minutes. And in doing this, you are not required to spend time on technical documentation. Simply load a sample 3D model of iPaq, which is shipped with VizUp, and learn how to reduce polygons by clicking on the VizUp buttons and seeing what effect each of them delivers. VizUp reduces all your efforts to a single click on the Reduce button. The compression is done automatically.

VizUp Reducer Enterprise is designed for commercial use in companies, and professional design studios. The product allows you to achieve the finest quality in optimization and polygon reduction, which can be compared to manual work of a designer, or an engineer. This edition is optimized for work with very large 3D models that have been converted from CAD/CAM/CAE. Supports Wavefront .OBJ, VRML2 and StereoLitho (STL) file formats.You get a low-poly model that retains the visual fidelity of a high-poly model. Another unique to VizUp Reducer Enterprise feature is Batch mode reduction, which let you perform model optimization according to some set parameters for all files in specified folders. This feature is very helpful when you work with large numbers of models. VizUp Reducer Enterprise saves time of a highly-paid specialist, who creates industrial or architectural real-time presentations, or builds 3D models for industrial systems of virtual reality.VizUp has a refreshingly uncomplicated user interface, which consists of the 3D viewer in the center and a toolbar with all commands and options ready at hand. Once you loaded a model, you can compress it with a single click on the Reduce button on the toolbar. VizUp Reducer performs the compression automatically. The best thing in it is that a model is compressed for all possible ratios at once.Another good thing about VizUp is its unique ability to retain the original look of a model. VizUp Reducer doesn't change the coordinates of the vertices and it results in minimal distortions during texture mapping even at high compression ratios. You can examine the result of reduction in 3D from different perspectives and in different visualization modes. This includes displaying a model as a set of textures, a set of smooth surfaces colored according to the material properties, as an object consisting of flat polygons, as a wireframe, or as a set of vertices.

VizUp Professional enables you to reduce the number of polygons in a complex 3D model while retaining the quality and appearance of the original. The end result of the reduction is a 3D model with a well-balanced level of details and size, which is perfect for the use in virtual reality and real-time visualization systems. The process of reduction is extremely simple and doesn't require any advanced knowledge. VizUp automatically picks all necessary parameters without any manual interference on your side. Supports Wavefront .OBJ, VRML2 and StereoLitho (STL) file formats.Unique to VizUp is that it compresses the model for all possible ratios at once. This means you can see the effect of any compression level instantly with a click on the corresponding ratio button. Thanks to this, you no longer have to restart polygon reduction each time for 10%, 20%, 30%, and other ratios. Switch between different compression ratios, compare the resulting models and select the one that fits your requirements.Another good thing about VizUp is its unique ability to maintain the visual fidelity of the model even at high compression ratios. In compressing a model, VizUp deletes some vertices, but the coordinates of the remaining vertices do not change. Thanks to this, there are minimal distortions during texture mapping, as texture coordinates of the vertices remain the same. However if you find that the resulting model doesn't look well, you can refine it by using the VizUp's optimization algorithm. This makes the model look very smooth.

3DS Import for Solid Edge is a 3D Studio (.3ds) file import add-in for Solid Edge®. This plug-in gives Solid Edge the ability to import geometric data from 3DS files.

3DS Import for Solid Edge reads polygon mesh data stored in 3DS files and imports it into Solid Edge. A polygon mesh in a 3DS file is comprised of a set of triangular faces. 3DS Import for Solid Edge creates trimmed planar surfaces for each triangular face and knits them together to create a body. If the polygon mesh is closed (i.e. it does not contain boundary edges) then 3DS Import for Solid Edge will create a closed body feature, otherwise an open surface will be created.

3DS Import for Solid Edge is very easy to use. Once installed, it automatically loads itself into Solid Edge and adds a new submenu called "3DS Import for Solid Edge" to the Solid Edge Applications menu.

The '3DS Import for Solid Edge' menu consists of the following commands:
# Import - Import a 3DS file
# Help - Display the 3DS Import for Solid Edge help file
# Register - Register your copy of 3DS Import for Solid Edge
# About - Display the 3DS Import for Solid Edge About box

3DS Import for Solid Edge comes with detailed documentation for each command as well as a tutorial to get you started in the shortest possible time.


The 3DS File Format

The 3DS file format is the native file format of 3D Studio. 3D Studio has now been replaced by 3ds Max whose native file format has a .max file extension. However, 3ds Max is still able to read and write .3ds files. 3ds Max is one of the most widely-used off the shelf 3D animation programs. It has strong modeling capabilities, a flexible plug-in architecture and a long heritage on the Microsoft Windows platform. It is mostly used by video game developers, TV commercial studios and architectural visualization studios. It is also used for movie effects and movie pre-visualization.
