Open beta for Turtle 5.0 released

Click↑

Long time no upgrade. Illuminate Labes announce their new version of Turtle.
Turtle is a rendering plugin for Maya. It is a very fast and quickly for rendering, and now, is for fifth generation.



許久沒有跟新版本的Turtle，Illuminate Labes現在終於宣布Turtle 5.0的Open beta版。
Turtle是一個for Maya的render引擎外掛。他標榜著"時間就是金錢"(Time is money!)的宣傳口號，以快速render著名。自4.0版本後，逐漸將軟體定位在遊戲製作上，尤其是在bake各式各樣的textures，而5.0看來依舊是強化這一點。畢竟品質面仍舊有mentalray這類的巨人擋在前面，不如換條跑道。
