著眼於snap及curve.....nurbs的curve啊。....
而且似乎全是realtime執行.....
好鬼autocad呀....
完全補足咗LW snap方面的缺點呀.....
1.5版經己好鬼好用.....
呢個更保得頂....
明年春天先見街~~~~~

Dear LightWave and LWCAD users,
Because a huge portion of the LWCAD 2 is already done, therefore it is right time to officially unveil some new futures you can expect in the next version.
LWCAD 2 will equip LightWave with several top futures which unbelievable increase your productivity and workflow. Most of the new tools and futures are again dedicated to architects and users who are concerning to inorganic modeling.
LWCAD 2 main futures:
Non destructive NURBS curves applied as native type
Advanced object snapping, best osnap engine compared to 3dsMax, Maya, Softimage….
Real-Time curve booleans working with all curve primitives on fly
Real-Time polygon drilling working with all curve primitives on fly
Real-Time curve offset & round working with all curve primitives on fly
New more advanced shape library, now also with 3D objects
Import-Export CAD file formats, starting with DXF, geometries will be imported-exported without precision loose, preserving layers information.
LWCAD 2 new tool tabs:
Edit curves tab will support the standard CAD curve edit tools: trim, extend, chamfer, fillet, blend...
Advanced cloning tools tab, set of interactive tools for cloning and multiplying geometry.
Advanced piping and cabling tools tab, set of tools for creating pipes, handles, cables,
ropes...
Primitives tab 2, with new additional primitive tools.
This is very brief list of features, final version will contain more features and tools, predicted overall tools count is 50-60. Release date for LWCAD 2 is planed to spring 2006.
