Happy
Birthday exrTrader!
exrTrader,
the OpenEXR centric buffer export plugin by
db&w, is turning 5 years old this
month.
The
render buffer exporter has been designed based on
OpenEXR specifications and works hand in hand with
eyeon Fusion as well as other OpenEXR savvy
compositing applications.
"eyeon
Fusion is the first stop to verify our
implementation." says Michael Wolf, developer of
exrTrader and long-time Fusion user, "I make sure
that the features in exrTrader work well with
it."
The
plugin comes with full support for multiple
layers, channel naming, metadata, and automatic
DoD. It has been designed with a visual workflow
in mind. exrTrader has been used in numerous
projects in the past and is the primary image
saver in many LightWave 3D centric
pipelines.
Five
years old and still cutting edge. If you use eyeon
Fusion in conjunction with LightWave 3D, adding
exrTrader to your pipeline is a natural
choice.
