What’s new in 23.03

Sample Material Presets

We’ve included several Material Preset examples to show how Studio’s basic material types can be tuned to simulate a wide variety of materials. Use or modify these to render hyper-realistic images for presentations and ecommerce.

More Material Types

Two new basic material types have been added to simulate even more real-world materials, including:

  • Cloudy Liquid: for simulating milk, orange juice, ketchup, or coffee
  • Materials from a texture: import an image to simulate natural materials like wood or molded fiber

Enhanced Image Export

When rendering a ray-traced image, you can now include realistic shadows with a transparent background to produce impactful images for presentations and ecommerce.
