Let’s dive into each of these features.

Additional Customizations

You can now personalize your seats’ upholstery, choosing between leather stitching and leather piping. Make your choice from the layout panel, with one click.

Save and Load Configurations

Now you can save and load layout and color scheme combinations, for easy access. With these presets, you can hit the ground running in your next meeting or design session.

Exposure Compensation in Viewport

In 3D visualizations, lighting is incredibly powerful. Proper lighting can be the difference between an underwhelming sales meeting and a spectacular first impression. Thanks to our latest update, now you can adjust your scene’s lighting directly from your upper menu. Try changes on the spot, without extra editing tools, and export renderings that are ready to captivate your customers.

Color Scheme Configurable Shortcuts

Now you can assign custom shortcuts (hotkeys) to each one of your color palettes. Switch color palettes instantly, even while the animation is playing.

Movie Player

Hyper-realistic and immersive 3D animations are among the many personalized assets you can create with Expressa. This latest update brings a movie player into the aircraft configurator. Now, you can play your animations in real-time, without leaving Expressa.

Ray Trace Support

One of the aspects of Expressa that makes us the proudest is the stunning outputs it’s capable of. With Expressa, you get studio-quality visualizations, without a studio. But now, especially if you’re using an NVIDIA® GeForce® RTX2070 or any higher RTX graphic card, you’ll see a noticeable improvement in refractory surfaces and numberless minor details. With this latest update, we’ve gone from hyper-realistic to unbelievable.
