| 12-19-09 / 01:05 AM : Bryce 6.3 update (cjed) | A 6.3 update to Bryce is available. It brings the following features : many bug fixes, now supports Snow Leopard, full universal binary (previously some PPC code was left and had to be emulated through Rosetta on Intel mac). | Post a comment | 12-11-09 / 11:29 PM : Vue 8 : PLE / Pioneer / Artist demo (cjed) | E-on Software provides 3 demo versions of its Vue 8 suites : Vue 8 Pioneer (for personnal use only, renders a logo, files are compatible with full versions), and Vue 8 PLE (full version of Vue 8 Infinite/xStream, however renders a watermark - sill for non-commercial use -, and files aren't compatible with the full version). We can also buy Themes Packs for Vue 8 Pioneer (Science Fiction, Fantasyn Fairy Tales, priced 46,95$ each, whose render does not include a logo). Finally we can download a demo of Vue 8 Artist (no scenes save, rendering limited to 640x480, animations restricted to 5s, limited content, and 30 days trial only).
As we can see in this comparative charts, Vue 8 Artist demo (corresponds in fact to either Vue 8 Esprit, Sudio or Complete - the choice is provided at install time - all 3 products are from the same family, Vue for 3D Artists) includes more features than Vue 8 Pioneer (these ones can be purchased as additional modules). Vue 8 PLE is the demo version of Vue 8 Infinite/xStream, that belongs to the Vue for Professionals products family. | Post a comment | 12-09-09 / 11:36 PM : Google Chrome OSX beta : Intel only (cjed) | Google Chrome first official beta is now available on OSX, however only for Intel macs : there will probably never be a ppc port, since the best part of chrome (the javascript engine) is built for the intel instruction set, not the PPC instruction set. porting the javascript engine is a huge undertaking
It is really deceiving, as all G4 (and G5) would have been able to run Chrome : users reported it being even more optimized (memory and GPU usage) than Safari 4. | Post a comment |
