With most rendering solutions, you can quickly lose your model under a pile of dialogs and windows, but the new UI in Keyshot 5 keeps these windows in check by allowing you to stack, dock, stack-tabbed and so on. Keyshot 5 is the “fastest” – at what? Fastest at sucking you in with its new slick new user interface – yep. The rendering software market is a crowded and often confusing place but Keyshot pitches itself as “fastest and easiest to use 3D rendering and animation software available” so I’m going to take a look at both claims. Is it perfect yet? Well, you’ll need to read on to find out, but if you’re looking for a canned demo of what’s new, there’s a video further down this page that wraps it all up nicely. I’d buy it just for the new user interface, but there’s so much more in this release. But they have, and they’ve done it in style. It’s hard to imagine how you could take the most loved-up rendering software of 2013 and make it better.

As with previous versions animation capabilities can be added to KeyShot for 500.USD and interactive KeyShotVR capabilities can be added for 1000.USD. There are many additional features and more details can be found here. Sun and Sky System - A new Sun and Sky system for automatic creation of physically accurate geographic lighting for location based lighting. Fade Animation - Now users can fade parts opacity from one level to another as part of an animation.Instancing - allows users to duplicate parts in KeyShot as a pattern tool and completely automated in select KeyShot plugins.NURBS Raytracing - Delivers more accurate geometry with smoother edges in renders.KeyShot Cloud - a new online library for new resources and shared assets.“Overall, it has a more integrated look and streamlined workflow due to improvements in the UI and tools menus.” Key new features in KeyShot 5 include: “The new Procedural Brushed texture in KeyShot 5 is a fantastic addition that gives the result I want and the new Backplate Perspective Matching is great for taking the guesswork out of camera setup,” said Ed Ferguson of Cascadia Design Studio. 01 – KeyShot 5 is all new and features NURBS raytracing for faster and more accurate rendering of data coming from leading MCAD tools, among many other features.
