With the no-planet mode you can also render cosmic scenes, with multiple lights, including multiple suns. It has a built-in environment for controlling clouds, sun position, haze, sea level for landscape creation. We’ll be working through the holidays to ensure that day is sooner rather than later. Voyager Voyager renders ArtMatic 3D objects and generates landscapes from 2D images. Happy Holidays all, and here is to wrapping up the Apple Cocoa platform rebuild new CTX journey in 2021 so we can all just focus on having with our U&I Software Creative ToolboX for years to come. Seeing how good the Rosetta 2 (Intel on ARM processors) is working, there is hope that Universal 2 (applications native to both platforms) will work just as well and customers will not notice the difference. the Cocoa rebuilds, but Big Sur wasn’t supposed to break Catalina applications either. I’m getting ahead of ourselves, the next stop after getting the first 5 apps done is porting the new versions to also being ARM processor Mac native. It’s such an interesting alternative to Photoshop+Premiere all in one app, I’m excited we will see a CTX version, it’s just going to take time and getting past the impacts of Big Sur. vQuartz is tricky as Apple dropped Quartz along with Carbon MacOS and the Cocoa MacOS’s use only Metal for graphics, so it’s a deeper reprogramming and even the product name does not make as much sense. I hear you fans who keep a MacOS 9 Mac running just to use it!). Once these four apps ship we can finish Xx CTX 1.0 (Midi for MetaSynth), test it, and ship it for our stand-alone MIDI users as well as folks who use it to Import/Export MIDI data into MetaSynth image+sound data.Īt that point only vQuartz will be the only U&I application for Carbon MacOS that has not been recreated for Cocoa (okay, and Videodelic from the MacOS Classic days. Besides Poser I'm also very fond of Artmatic Pro and Artmatic Voyager (Mac). Fingers and toes we are past this Big Sur hurtle and we can get back to the Cocoa MacOS+iOS on the Mac one. It’s just a question of when is a release solid and ready to face the wider world. Software Development is an iterative process and never really done. Select ArtMatic CTX 1.0 users have been seeded the latest builds and it is looking good. While I am still deeply disappointed in Apple Developer Support, the Apple Rosetta 2 (Intel emulation on ARM processors) have done a fantastic job! We are now back to normal testing to ensure the products are ready for prime time and can be released into the wild. We’ve also had a couple of testers confirm that the applications run normally on the M1 Mac. Whew, it’s been a nail-biting, nerve-wracking doldrums for 6 weeks, but Eric has done it. If you have not upgraded your software before, please read the Updates section of the Support page on this site.ĪrtMatic CTX 1.1 (Designer, Voyager, Explorer) build 3, and MetaSynth CTX 1.0 build 6 have been tested under Big Sur and are working. UPDATE: ArtMatic CTX 1.1 (Designer, Voyager, Explorer) has been released to CTX 1.0 customer accounts.
