Amapi 3D's new ActiveStyles renderer allows you to mix both cartoon or drafting effects with the photo-realistic raytrace engine!
...... Amapi 3D is strongest as a modeling application, and is especially popular as the application used to create models for 3D Studio MAX, Electric Image and other animation and rendering platforms.  But what about rendering?

We've included some very cool rendering capability in Amapi for two reasons.  First, even if you use Amapi 3D to create models for other animation and rendering platforms, the Amapi renderer lets you "preview" your model with surface properties.  This shortens the work cycle and helps you get your projects done sooner.

Also, many Amapi 3D users don't have $1,000-$20,000  to spend on the hardware and software required for Strata, MAX or Softimage. So Amapi 3D is a great solution for the rest of us!  Use Amapi 3D at home, school and work!

ActiveStyles
Our newest effort on the rendering side of Amapi is ActiveStyles, a cool new rendering technology from TGS that combines Phong, raytrace and artistic rendering in one integrated solution!

Shader 3D Texturing
Render now in Amapi 3.03 with an extended Phong texture shaded with total control over Ambient, Diffuse, Specular and Transparency parameters.

Multi-Layer Shaders
The unlimited number of layers gives you total control over texture creation by adding textures such as Bump or 3D noise. More than 20 pre-defined textures give you endless possibilities for creating shaders. And you can easily add your own.
