Does Raylectron support dynamic components that move

Post by themrveez »

I'd like to create scenes with dynamic moving components and I'm wondering if Raylectron will support the movements when it animates from scene to scene.

If not are you guys working on making that a feature? It would greatly elevate the value of this program and in my opinion even rival lumion to a certain extent

v4 doesn't have this yet but v5 will have full object animation and also physics animation. Lumion is a game engine, not a physically based render, just like the "Performance mode" in Raylectron. It is difficult to make physically based rendering animation in an acceptable time frame but we are at it full time.

Yes! then my next question is this I purchased a professional license for V4 this year about a month ago. does this come with a free upgrade to V5 or even a discount? and also do you have any idea of the projected release date of V5?

Yes, your license is valid for all v4.xx versions and if v5 comes out within 6 months of your purchase it is free otherwise it's half the price. I anticipate v5 to be out by April 2015.
