Product Description
MultiScatter is a new product, based on VRayScatter technology its designed to work not only with V-Ray but with Mental Ray as well.
New in MultiScatter: multi-core processing support! It uses all available CPU cores and therefore runs much quicker than VRayScatter which can only use one CPU core. And more!
MultiScatter allows VRay and Mentalray to generate huge amount of objects in array.
The support for 64-bit systems allows MultiScatter to create and submit for render, for example, forest or even a city in a blink of an eye.
Quick render time generation of objects with optimized RAM management makes process of scene creation as easy as ABC.
Customers who purchased VRayScatter from July 01, 2011 to July 01, 2012 can migrate to MultiScatter for free. VRayScatter purchases prior to July 01, 2011 can migrate to MultiScatter for $69.99.
