Seems like we have a release row! The 3D editor Blender has released its new alpha version 2.5.0 with an amazing new set of features. The most obvious new feature is the new UI - but as always there are tons of other new things to explore in this release. Expect improvements in those areas:
- Custom keyboard shortcuts
- Data access
- Tool system
- F-Curves, Actions, NLA
- Animation Editors
- Spline IK
- Smoke Simulation
- Particles
- Volume Rendering
- Ray tracing optimization
- Other rendering features
actually don't bother with that list and have a closer look already on their homepage - it illustrates the changes, but remeber: it's only an alpha version!
