Features include scene graph and attribute editing and LOD management all while maintaining the original scene graph structure. In addition to these features OpenFlight artists can continue to use the full range of award wining content creation tools available in 3ds Max, including polygonal and multi-resolution mesh modeling, unwrap UV modifier, texture baking, real-world lighting, and vertex paint modifier. Given the powerful creation tools available with 3ds Max, artists will have a new platform for creating accurate, efficient and compelling OpenFlight databases.
