LightWorks 8.1 Released for Rendering

LightWork Design has just released LightWorks 8.1.  Focus areas in this release are mostly in improving the real-time rendering engine, but others include:

• Soft shadows and Shadow catching are now both supported by Real-time rendering, using programmable shading;
• Programmable shading is now supported for several more LightWorks material shaders, for example multilayer paints and leathers, and this gives real-time support which is closer to the software implementation;
• EPix output can now be anti-aliased giving users more defined and accurate rendering.
