About AccuRender nXt for Revit
AccuRender nXt for Revit - has now been released.
High Quality, Photo Realistic renderings from Revit with a new integrated rendering Engine.
This is the fastest, best low-cost renderer for Revit.
We have now moved AccuRender nXt for Revit from Beta test mode to Production mode. AccuRender nXt for Revit is producing good renderings now, and have fixed most of the bugs which our Beta Testers have reported. We feel that the product is ready for release to the general public, and have released it for production.
We appreciate the work the testers have put into helping us define a product which is useful for the Revit community. We recognize that there will continue to be bug fixes, improvements to the base engine, and to the interface, and that is why we are offering the production version to our testers for less than 1/2 of the final price.
