期待已久的Blender 2.48 Final终于出来了！
有了Blender后，喜欢3D绘图的玩家们不用花大钱，也可以制作出自己喜爱的3D模型了。它不仅支持各种多边形画图，也能做出动画！倘若你觉得free版的不够使用，还能注册C-key，购买更强大的版本。Blender虽然是免费版本，不过它的功能可是又强又复杂。Blender支持3D modeling(模型)有polygon meshes、curves、NURBS 、tex以及metaballs；支持的动画有keyframes、motion curves、morphing、inverse kinematics。它也提供了画图particle system(粒子系统)、deformation lattices(变形栅格)与skeletons(骨架)，以及3D可以任意角度观看的视野(3D view with animated rotoscoping)。其他值得注意的特点尚有field rendering(区域的描绘)、several lighting modes(光源的形式)、animation curves(运动曲线)等等。当然Blender也可以存取Targa, Jpeg, Iris, SGI movie, Amiga IFF等格式的文件。

Blender 2.48

Blender 2.48 includes all the work done on the Blender Game Engine and the Apricot Open Game "Yo Frankie!", with much better functioning game logic editing, character animation, and Blender Material based real-time shaders. And as last minute surprise a Bullet physics update with Softbody support.

We also included a lot of new development in this release; Windows 64 bits support, Grease Pencil for sketching annotations,  Sun/Sky/Atmosphere rendering, new modifiers, and an improved text editor with Python API support. And last but not least, an enormous list of open bug reports were handled.
