MAXON Computer Announces Partnership with Nemetschek Vectorworks, Inc.

Nemetschek Vectorworks will base its Renderworks™ rendering application on MAXON’s CINEMA 4D render engine.

MAXON Computer is pleased to announce a new partnership with Nemetschek Vectorworks, Inc. Beginning with the next release of Vectorworks® software, which will be available on Sept. 14, 2010, Nemetschek Vectorworks will base its Renderworks™ rendering application on MAXON’s CINEMA 4D render engine.

“The CINEMA 4D render engine is blazingly fast, and now Renderworks 2011 offers this speed to our customers, completely integrated into their Vectorworks workflows. With improved speed, rendering quality and 64-bit support, virtually every aspect of the Renderworks experience is improved,” said Sean Flaherty, CEO of Nemetschek Vectorworks. “And with ‘no-translation’ transfer directly into CINEMA 4D, we provide a solution for customers who need animation or additional high-end rendering features. This is a truly integrated visualization solution courtesy of the Nemetschek group.”

The newest version of CINEMA 4D software, Release 12, includes breakthrough new tools that cater to the needs of 3D visualization professionals. It is an ideal solution for architects and designers using Vectorworks with Renderworks who desire extra realism and an unlimited choice of rendering options.

"Both companies have worked closely together to deliver the best possible experience for Vectorworks users when it comes to creating high-quality visualizations. We are excited to present this integrated solution for architects and designers that offers easy-to-use tools and state-of-the-art technology for the successful realization of professional projects." said Harald Egel, CEO and co-founder of MAXON.
