Columbia, Maryland (March 11, 2009)—Nemetschek North America is pleased to announce that MAXON Computer has updated their plug-in for Vectorworks 2009 and CINEMA 4D R11. This plug-in supports direct file exchange for high-end visualization and allows Vectorworks users to transfer their models to CINEMA 4D for convincing visualizations and animations. It is even possible to make changes to the model after the visualization process has started, as the auto-update feature in CINEMA 4D keeps track of all changes made.

"CINEMA 4D offers Vectorworks users access to world-class animation and rendering effects by the leader in visualization technology," says Sean Flaherty, chief executive officer at Nemetschek North America. "This plug-in gives Vectorworks users a great option to improve the presentation of their designs, no matter what their industry."

"Architects and designers continually need easy-to-use, cutting-edge technology to deliver outstanding results. We are proud to be able to deliver a solution that lets Vectorworks users' work shine in the brightest possible light—an impressive visualization technology," states Harald Schneider, chief technology officer at MAXON Computer. A leading 3D modeling and rendering software specialist, MAXON Computer is also a part of the Nemetschek Group.

The Vectorworks 2009 exchange plug-in for CINEMA 4D is free and available as a download from MAXON Computer’s website at www.maxon.net/pages/download/plugins_e.html
