NewTek, Inc. has announced a “technology preview� of a Universal Binary version of its LightWave 3D application on the Mac. The announcement was made at the 2006 SIGGRAPH exposition in Boston.
“We’re incredibly excited about our development plans for LightWave 3D on the Mac platform,” said Jay Roth, President, NewTek 3D Division. “Our support for the new Intel-based Mac systems provides tremendous speed and performance gains for Mac users. This new technology also opens doors for us to make significant enhancements to LightWave expressly for the Mac community.”
The Universal Binaries port will enable LightWave to run on both the PPC G4 and G5 CPUs and the new Intel-based Macs. Optimized performance will be provided for Mac users natively on both series of CPUs.
“Today, we publicly reveal and validate our passion for providing Mac users with the power, speed and flexibility of NewTek’s latest 3D technology on either PowerPC or the new Mac Intel-based architecture,� said Michael Kornet, Vice President of Business Development.
