Pyware 3D 11

  • $62400


NEW FEATURES IN VERSION 11!

  • New Collaboration System
    • A director/designer can automatically sync drill files with their own devices through the 3D Portal.  For example: A director can work on a drill on one computer and move to another computer and continue.
    • A director/designer can make assignments for members in their design team.  The team members work is automatically synced with the leader’s master drill file making it possible for multiple designers “team members” to work simultaneously on the same drill and see and use each other’s changes.
    • Using the automated Design Team Sentinel, 3D monitors all team member drill changes and when changes are sensed, performers’ mobile devices are refreshed in real time even while performers and designers are in rehearsal.  In other words, a designer or multiple designers can make a change and the change is automatically synced with the other designer’s as well as any performer using 3d compatible mobile viewers such as the UDBapp.
    • Design team member assignments can be broken down by task such as locations (movement), visuals, labeling, audio sync, cast list, markups like arrows and text, and commands.  Advanced level collaboration allows tasks to further be divided by performer category.  For example: Instrumental movement can be assigned to one design team member while Guard movement can be assigned to a different design team member.
    • Collaboration assignments can seamlessly be merged, changed and re-assigned to different team members and back and forth between the team leader.
    • Each Design Team Member can have and change their own Page Tab setup.  All members can see and use other team member page tabs while having editorial control of their own page tabs.
    • Design Team Members can create and share sketches through syncs.  For example, one member can create a sketch on a count, and it appears on all the design team members drill for other team members to use.
    • Design Team backup/restore function allows team members to sync “and un-sync” changes made by their design teammates.
  • Multiple Page Tab Layers
    • Multiple Page Tab rows called page tab layers can be setup on the count track.  Each designer can have their own personal page tab layer based on what the designer’s needs.
    • Multiple Page Tab layers can be shown/hidden/popup and rearranged.
  • Three Selection Grouping Layers
    • Groupings made during regrouping and drawing tools are saved as grouping history.  Any count of a drill can be grouped 3 different ways based on filter settings.  For example: grouping of performers for visuals can be different than the grouping of performers for movement which can be different of grouping of performers for labeling.
  • Undo History
    • A designer can back up to any point in a design session using the Undo History feature.  The user sees a list of “jump back” points with description and time and can jump to any point in the list.
    • Save snapshots of a file state so you can easily jump back if you want to try different versions of a file.
  • Customizable tool palette tool options.
    • Add/Remove tools from the tool palette
  • New Dim Others option.
    • In editing and drawing tools check dim others to make them become less prominent while designing for an unobstructed view of the grid.
  • New Show only Dots in design mode toggle
    • Quickly toggle from symbol view to dot view while designing.
  • New Accessory option in Visuals Editor
    • Add up to 3 additional accessories to the performer.
    • Hoods, Drapes, Capes, Masks, Glasses, Gauntlets, Wings and more.
    • Commission custom accessories through the Real View Store to customize your ensemble for your show.
  • New Running environment for improved performance.
  • New Real View environment for improved performance.

    • You can also have different selection history favorites based on the selection layer as well.

    • More efficient copy and paste options.
    • Matching between continuation files is much simpler.
  • New Look and Feel Options
    • Light Mode
    • Dark Mode
    • Metal
  • The Splice Tool is an advanced rewrite tool, allowing designers to splice performers into or out of existing forms from each page of the drill. Add or remove performers from any shape in the drill seamlessly.
  • External Files (audio files, floor covers, props, and more)
    • New .3dzatt file format. External files in a drill can be saved as an attachment allowing for faster upload/downloads between designer/directors.  The External Files are modified less frequently and therefore uploading/downloading these files is less necessary.  External Files can be copied into a drill by simply dropping a drill or attachment into the External Files folder.

All Features

  • Completely new licensing system
  • We’re transitioning from a node-locked license (activate on the computer) to a modified “always on” license (sign in on each use)
  • Once you’ve been added to a license via the new Pyware Web Portal, you’ll launch the program as usual. On open, you’ll be prompted to sign in to an account. At this point you have the following options:
    • Online
      • Sign in to an account and use that particular license. You can either sign in every time or set a favorite license to be remembered on launch. Therefore, jumping right into the program.
      • This option checks out a seat on the license for the duration of your session. Once you close the program, the seat is available for others to use.
    • Offline
      • Sign in to an account and use that particular license. This option resembles the old licensing system, where a seat on the license is permanently checked out until it is released by the user, the account administrator, or expires.
      • Once you enable the use of an offline install, you have 2 weeks of use of the program. At any point during those two weeks, you can reconnect to the account to reset the 2-week timer. This is attempted automatically once your computer is connected to the Internet.
      • If you do not connect to the Internet before the 2-week timer expires, the program will revert to a demonstration version. At which point, you’ll need to sign back in (Internet required) to continue use. Don’t worry, your work will be saved before you get kicked out.
      • While this option is great for traveling, keep in mind that an offline install will still be considered “active” even if you aren’t currently in Pyware. So, there will be one less seat on the license for other users on your account to access.

Pyware is the recognized leader of drill design software worldwide. 3D has not only been a staple item for High School and College Bands, but it has been used in special events such as Super Bowl half time shows, the Olympics Opening and Closing Ceremonies, over 90% of all college bowl games, major parades, movies such as "Drumline," and even on Broadway. In 2010, we entered the video game world thanks to the wonderful folks at EA Sports. Look for halftime performances in EA Sports NCAA Football 10.

3D is now available in two editions:

  • 3D Basic is a lower cost edition with all of the advanced 3D features for designing and printing drill. This product was developed for the marching band director that needs to design their own field show.
  • 3D Professional includes all of the features of 3D Interactive, 3D Basic, as well as all of the Plug-ins offered by Pygraphics including the Floor Covers, Traditional Design Tools, Spiral Tool, and Personal Drill Book Printer. This edition also includes an additional install for your license, as well as an increase in the number of files you can host in your online account. Professional is developed for full time drill designers and drill design companies, as well as ensembles that desire the most features available.
