It’s good to see LightWave Digital doing the weekly LightWave3D Presentations, especially with the recent Black Friday Promotion at www.lightwave3d.com. Deals are to be had, and while certain upcoming tech is being held close to the chest for good reason, we have caught a sneak peek on some fascinating stuff. You can see that they have 3 live stream presentations scheduled on their official youtube channel which you can find here, along with the presentations from the past couple of weeks. https://www.youtube.com/@OfficialLightWave3D/streams We highly suggest everyone subscribe and sit in on the live presentations when they broadcast, which seems to be a regular thing now on Friday’s at 10AM PST (6PM GMT) If you missed last week’s presentation, you missed out on a totally brand new tool for doing large water body simulations. Similar in purpose to “HOTOcean”, but totally original code developed by LightWave Digital Developer, Shaun Lee Bishop , is based on the latest research papers on the subject (from what I understand) and features some really excellent methods to control waves, shorelines and more. You can watch that stream here. The New LWOcean Tool (official name pending) demonstration, although still under development, starts around 4 minutes in. We look forward to making use of this exciting new tool set in production and will have training on the tool as soon as we can get our mittens on it ourselves.
