 Di-O-Matic Announces Immediate Availability of Hercules Posted by: amigo

Date: Tue Apr 06 2004
Montreal, Canada - April 6th, 2004 � Di-O-Matic, a leading developer of character animation software, announced today immediate availability of Hercules, a complete musculature solution aimed at creating realistic deformations for your animated characters' skin directly inside of 3ds max.
With Hercules, you can now create strong, powerful characters or creatures that move and deform realistically. Hercules� muscles primitives will help create realistic bulging, wobbling and sub-surface deformations beneath the skin of your characters when they move. Simply drag out muscles and attach them to your character�s existing skeleton rig or Biped. They will deform right away, squashing and stretching as your creation moves within your scene.
Hercules also works in concert with all of the current skinning modifiers like the built-in Skin, Physique and Bones Pro, so that the skin will react based on the underlying muscles� deformations.
"Muscles-based deformation is becoming standard practice in many character heavy productions nowadays" explains Ben Girard, VES and Four-Time Emmy Award Winner, President of Digital Dimension. "With Hercules, we finally got a powerful toolset to help us achieve 'perfect' character deformations." Girard concludes "The power of Hercules resides not only in its wide range of features but in its logical implementation and extremely intuitive interface."
