Cheetah3D 3.6 released
Cheetah3d.com has released Cheetah3D 3.6, offering an entirely rewritten timeline with numerous additional features such as auto-keying and a timeline 'scroller.' The latest revision includes more advanced keying masks that allow users to key single parameters, and features a new design with refreshed icons for the timeline. The software provides rewritten auto highlighting with easier selection of unconnected points, edges on mesh borders, and points on mesh borders. Cheetah 3D 3.6 improves auto highlighting accuracy, features 40 percent faster OpenGL previews of complex meshes, and enhances the transform gadget capability alongside FBX animation export. The application priced at $100 for a single user license or $1,000 for a school site license, with upgrades available at $50 for Cheetah3D 1.x or 2.x users. Cheetah3D 3.6 requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later.

You know, you could mention at least *once* what Cheetah3D actually does. Yes, you can figure out some of it's capabilities by mentioning what's been updated or improved, and if you use it, you know what it does... but that doesn't mean it has to be left entirely unwritten for someone who might have a passing interest.

My thoughts exactly... I'm thrilled for the makers of Cheetah that they've released an update, but short of going to their site (which I have neither the time nor the inclination to do - less so without ANY information as to the nature of the software) this short article tells me absolutely nothing. It's almost a riddle... you really should revise it and be more precise.
