Fast Render launches Artlantis Render Farm

PARIS, March 12, 2013 -- Fast Render, a subsidiary of Abvent S.A. and ND 3D Image and Film, has announced the launch of Artlantis Render Farm, offering powerful rendering calculation services to Artlantis users around the world.

Artlantis Render Farm offers the Artlantis user community more than 300 CPU's to produce photo-realistic still images or complex, high-definition animations with the high quality settings that clients demand, at a fraction of the average rendering times.

Artlantis Render Farm currently supports Artlantis Render and Artlantis Studio versions 3 and 4. In the future, the current version and the immediately previous version will be supported.  Users have the option to ask for either an Artlantis engine calculation or a Maxwell Render engine calculation.

"We are pleased to be working with the Artlantis power users at ND 3D on this project," said Xavier Soule, CEO of Abvent. "Artlantis Render Farm's speed, strength, and affordability will allow Artlantis users around the world to produce the highest quality images and animations possible," he added.

Last years event was a spectacular success (many thanks to those who participated) and I am hopeful that we can have similar – and possibly greater involvement this year. At the end of last years inaugural playhouse competition we were able to build two playhouses. This year we know that we can do two, but we are shooting for three!!

So let’s get to the details shall we?"

BIMobject® Weber Saint-Gobain Artlantis rendering in 3D

The products are the first in this range and include facade renders, Leca® Blocks as wall composites, and detailed BIM objects. The ranges are developed both to cover the needs for BIM users in visualization, project work, 3D detailing, and even in advanced construction and production models.

The Weber BIM objects are available for various 3D visualization systems, as system families for Revit, Composite wall structures in ArchiCAD, but also as individual parametric objects and wall systems. The Leca® Blocks can used in a very advanced way for construction analysis and quantity take offs.

Language support integrated into the BIMobject portal

Multi-language support will greatly enhance the experience for many users and make it easier to access and use the BIM objects published on the portal. This further supports the BIMobject mission, of being the primary global BIM object content provider for the building industry, by attracting more BIM users across the world.

The version released provides the BIM object catalogue in English, French, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and German. More languages will be added during 2013.

All search, filter and integrated functions are available in the different languages so users can use the portal in their native language or the language required for the project. All the language features are available immediately in the highly popular BIMobject APP for Autodesk Revit and AutoCAD.

The integrated support for languages in the BIMobject portal also benefits international component manufacturers with a much reduced maintenance on making available country specific BIM objects. And where manufacturers have their own private clouds to publish BIMobject catalogues, they can also choose the most appropriate language.
