With VertiSketch, LightWave animators can make complex organic 3D models from physical objects in minutes, saving hours, and days, from previous creation time. VertiSketch plugs into LightWave Modeler seamlessly, allowing modelers to digitize in a familiar environment and maintain the complete suite of tools provided by LightWave.
Features:
* Seamless support for your 3D digitizer hardware within LightWave 3D.
* Foot pedal trigger for convenient operation.
* Audio feedback allows you to focus on digitizing your model.
* Four digitizing modes: point, select, snap, and continuous.
* Available on the PC platform under Windows, Windows 95, Windows NT and the Amiga platform.
* An easy to read reference manual thoroughly covers each function, and includes a section of instructive tutorials and modeling tips to help you quickly become proficient with VertiSketch.
* Models may be constructed using autosurf, splines, polygon lofts, or even point by point. With VertiSketch you control the way a model is built.
Operation:
* Align To Combine pieces of large or complex models together.
* Autosurf Create a polygon surface from a group of digitized points.
* Circle-Sphere Create a circle touching three points, or a sphere touching four points.
* Fit To Project selected points onto a line or plane.
* Loft Create polygons between contours.
* Quick Axis Setup the coordinate system.
* Select Select the nearest point within the user-definable selection radius.
