ChefX3D Version 2.0 Released

Seattle, WA - Oct 26th, 2007 - Yumetech, Inc. is pleased to announce the release of ChefX3D v2.0: an open source toolkit for creating domain-specific content editors. ChefX3D is a Java-based API that allows you to create real-time 3D, OpenGL graphics editors that are tailored to your needs. It will work on a variety of operating systems including Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. It includes world building and optimization components that will provide you with an efficient and powerful content creation pipeline.

"General 3D editors are hard to use. ChefX3D makes it easy to develop domain specific editors that allow the average user to easily create 3D worlds." says Alan Hudson, President Yumetech, Inc.

Typical applications of ChefX3D include simulation authoring, space mission planning and game level editors. Each project can build upon a set of developed and tested components commonly needed in authoring tools. These include 2D and 3D views, catalog tools, property sheets and importers and exporters.

ChefX3D is highly customizable and will meet your specialized requirements. Moreover, combining ChefX3D with the Xj3D and/or Aviatrix3D Toolkits will provide you with a full real-time 3D graphics development suite that will meet all your 3D custom development needs.

Yumetech provides support, training and custom application development to help you make the best use of the toolkit. Released under the LGPL license it can be used in your commerical applications without licensing fees.
