 Date: Tue Oct 14 2003
Castro Valley, CA -October 14, 2003- GHOST 3D, LLC announces new 3ds max� 6 (Discreet) plug-in versions of its full line of 3D modeling, conversion, digitizing and reverse engineering products. The GHOST 3D products continue to provide 3D Designers, Engineers, Sculptors, Animators, Artists and professionals in the Film, Games, Television, Design Visualization and Manufacturing industries with unprecedented 3D creation tools, including: superior surfacing, creation, editing, digitizing, conversion, parametric objects and more. The newest versions of GHOST 3D's products include Power Modeler PackT, Power Digitizer PackT, ResErectT, Scribe-iTT and Surf-iTT.

GHOST 3D, LLC takes every effort to ensure its plug-in products are improved and updated for each new version of 3ds max. This year GHOST 3D is ready in record time for the anticipated advent of 3ds max 6 (Discreet's newest version, previewed at Siggraph 2003).

"Our continued commitment to extend and enhance the very best in 3D productivity tools has been unyielding ever since our involvement with the development of 3ds max and Character Studio� debut releases. GHOST 3D sincerely applauds Discreet's proactive approach with 3ds max 6 and their exceptional efforts in support of our plug-in development work," said Paul Bloemink, Vice President of R&D, GHOST 3D, LLC. "With the vast improvements in 3ds max 6 we couldn't be more excited about bringing GHOST 3D's product technology and workflow to the next level."

World-class designers, film, games, television and design production professionals credit GHOST 3D modeling products as must-have, powerful and flexible time saving solutions. Testimonials can be found on the product web sites and contain words such as "superior", "powerful", and "godsend" to describe the attention to detail within individual features.

Surf-iT and Power Modeler Pack offer the highest quality, speed and diversity in Spline surface modeling systems for 3ds max and Autodesk VIZ. The GHOST 3D modeling systems and techniques provide 3D modelers, designers, game artists, film animators and engineers the most desirable flexibility in creating 3D content. They offer parametric object creation, surfacing, speedy and intelligent editing, and countless tools to instantly produce clean and desirable 3D surface topology with minimal effort. Most importantly, the objects are created using data that can be converted (using the provided features) to almost any other technology or object type, guaranteeing future
usability of the work within the application, and ensuring the output can be exported to popular data file formats.
As a result of this flexibility (Mesh, Patch, Spline conversion, native Spline compatibility and surface-like Spline operations), Surf-iT and Power Modeler Pack ensure outstanding content that can be used with virtually any other tools if so desired.

ResErect offers unique Mesh, Patch, Primitive, and Spline conversion to optimized Splines, preservation of animation, rebuilding of the Splines, preparation for surfacing, and special import capability for Hash's Animation Master patch-based models.

Scribe-iT and Power Digitizer Pack offer CMM device type digitizing, reverse engineering and 3D modeling tools that enable creative professionals to generate beautiful and accurate 3D models and geometry from physical objects. GHOST 3D's unique and highly acclaimed digitizing tools evangelized the way people use 3D-probe digitizing devices. GHOST 3D provided the premiere interactive manipulation and animation features for 3D digitizing devices on the Windows platform.
Evolved from the very first digitizing solution for 3ds max and Autodesk VIZ, Scribe-iT and Power Digitizer Pack are complete solutions for designers, artists and engineers to design, create, animate and even interactively visualize physical objects. The products provide the power and versatility of multiple creation modes, hybrid modeling, conversion and editing techniques, the very best in digitizing documentation, and the ability to incorporate any 3ds max or VIZ modifier into the digitizing process. Scribe-iT and Power Digitizer Pack support the full line of Microscribe 3D, Microscribe G2
(Immersion), and a full selection of FaroArm CMM devices from Faro Technologies Inc. Commercial releases for Faro products are soon to be announced.
