[b]Ghost 3D announces 3ds max 7 plug-in versions[/b]

Castro Valley, CA; November 17, 2004 --Ghost 3D has announced the availability of 3ds max 7 (Discreet) plug-in versions for its line of 3D modeling, conversion, digitizing and reverse engineering products. Ghost 3D products continue to provide digital content creators, designers, engineers, and 3D professionals in the Games, Television, Film, Design Visualization and Manufacturing industries with powerful easy-to-use 3D
content creation, scan-surfacing, design, editing and output for
DCC/CAD/CAM. The newest versions of GHOST 3D's products include Power Modeler Pack, Power Digitizer Pack, ResErect, Scribe-iT DCC and Surf-iT. Additional products are soon to be announced.

Ghost 3D's Power Modeler Pack and Surf-iT offer a full suite of modeling tools providing 3D content creators and designers with the ability to create accurate 3D models simply using both 3D and 2D design and drawing techniques. Each product incorporates speed and diversity in Spline surface modeling systems with non-linear parametric conversion features. Users can frame out complex surfaces quickly and accurately by drawing, refining and editing using Spline-based patches, convert to subdivision
surfaces, editable subdivision polygon objects, NURMS, NURBS, mesh, and then export to popular file formats. Surf-iT and Power Modeler Pack ensure outstanding content that can be used with most tools in the 3D production pipeline. Additional highlights include parametric drag-and-drop 3D-Spline objects, advanced surfacing, and loads of speedy editing enhancements to instantly produce models with superb 3D geometry.

Scribe-iT and Power Digitizer Pack provide state-of-the-art 3D
digitizing, reverse engineering and 3D modeling tools that enable anyone to create high quality, accurate 3D models and geometry from physical objects. Ghost 3D's unique and highly acclaimed digitizing tools revolutionized the way people use CMMs (Coordinate Measurement Machines) and contact 3D-digitizer devices. The company provided the premiere interactive manipulation and animation features for Ghost 3D's 3D digitizing devices on the Windows platform. Evolved from the very first digitizing solution for 3ds max and Autodesk VIZ, Scribe-iT and Power Digitizer Pack are complete solutions for designers, artists and engineers to design, create, animate and interact with physical objects in 3D scenes.

The products provide the power and versatility of multiple creation
modes, hybrid modeling, conversion and editing techniques, the ability to incorporate any modifier into the digitizing process. Scribe-iT and Power Digitizer Pack support CMMs, 3D scanners and digitizers through integrated easy-to-use 3D Systems, including MicroScribe, FaroArm devices and others. Additional versions of the solutions are planned for announcement.

ResErect offers unique Mesh, Patch, Primitive, and Spline conversion to optimized Splines, preservation of animation, rebuilding of the Splines, preparation for surfacing, and special import capability for Hash's Animation Master patch-based models.
