New in Autodesk VIZ 2008
  • Interoperability
  • DWG™ import options and an optimized import memory management system make it possible to import large files with complex scenes and a large number of objects.
  • Select Similar feature parses object metadata to isolate objects with similar characteristics, making simple work of identifying and changing multiple objects in a scene.


  • Rendering Enhancements
  • New version of mental ray® (3.5) software.
  • Rendering performance for large, data-heavy scenes has been dramatically enhanced using
    mental ray.
  • New architecture and sun and sky shaders make it easier and quicker to harness the full power of mental ray.


  • Performance
  • DirectX ® optimizations improve interactivity with high-density geometry and complex scenes.
  • Improvements to file I/O, working with splines, geometry modeling, viewports, and XRefs.


  • Learning
  • Video-based tutorials focused on getting started quickly.
  • New book featuring tutorials of architectural workflows integrated with Revit® and AutoCAD® software.
