Verto Studio 3D 1.4 comes to iOS 7 with 3D text support - Published on 09/26/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Independent developer, Michael L. Farrell today updated Verto Studio 3D, his full-featured modeling app that rivals 3D software for computers, to version 1.4 with a cleaner new design for iOS 7 and several new features. Introduced in 1.4, is the text object type, allowing users to create 3D words and phrases. Additionally 1.4 introduces the virtual reality "fly-through" mode, a new way to explore the 3D scene using video-game-style dual touchpad controls and the device gyroscope.

San Diego, California - Independent developer, Michael L. Farrell today is pleased to announce the release of Verto Studio 3D 1.4 for iPad, a major update to his full-featured modeling app that rivals 3D software designed to run on desktop and notebook computers. The update features a new modern design for iOS 7. All user-interface elements have been re-examined and updated to provide a simpler intuitive design that closely matches the design goals of the underlying iOS 7!system. All antiquated shine effects, skeuomorphism, and excessive UI chrome has been stripped and flattened to provide a clean, beautiful, interface.

Introduced in 1.4, is the text object type, allowing users to create 3D words, logos, or phrases, and add them as objects to the scene. Text objects are configurable with dozens of fonts to choose from. Like all objects, text objects can be exported as OBJ files. However, in version 1.4 of Verto Studio, all scene documents and OBJ files can be shared directly to other apps allowing cloud uploading and sharing directly from the iPad without having to send a single email. These two new features combined allows one to quickly design a new logo mockup in 3D and share the model with other individuals and team members very rapidly.

Verto Studio 1.4 also unveils the virtual reality "fly-through" mode, a new way to explore the 3D scene using video-game-style dual touchpad controls and the device gyroscope. Simply tap into the fly-through mode and begin moving through the scene using the same intuitive touchpad controls found in many other popular touchscreen first-person 3D games. This feature will benefit 3D game developers and designers interested in quickly previewing the look and feel and performance of a 3D scene running on the iPad device. On devices with a gyroscope, tapping the gyro icon enables the motion vantage mode where the iPad acts as a virtual window into the scene, with the perspective changing as you hold the device at different angles. Also added to the camera settings are a group of advanced controls which allow fine tuning of the OpenGL camera projection parameters. These controls include the near and far clipping planes and the field-of-view angle which can be altered to provide wide-angle
camera lens effects.

The material editor gets an update with the addition of the 'opacity' option which allows the setting of objects as semi-transparent. Semi-transparency provides a way to use the built-in hardware graphics blending capability to provide a more realistic rendering of glass, water, plastic, and other translucent material types. Combined with this feature is the added ability to render the scene directly to the clipboard as an semi-transparent image which can be pasted anywhere. This allows Verto Studio to now function as a generator of individual layers which can be composited within the app or within external apps to produce highly sophisticated renderings and effects.

In addition to the above, many large under the hood changes were made to heavily optimize the software's memory consumption by migrating the entire source code base to ARC (automatic reference counting). Software stability was improved and many bugs were fixed in this release.

Update highlights:
* Cloud Share support, open and upload OBJ zip archives and verto studio mobile files to cloud storage apps directly from your iPad
* Semi-transparency support
* Lossless render and/or transparent render to clipboard as copied image
* 3D Text object type complete with font selection and built-in extrusion
* Advanced camera controls for FOV angle and near and far plane manipulation
* "Fly through" mode - Fly through the scene in full screen using game-style touchpad controls
* Gyro motion view - In "fly through mode," tap the gyro button to use your iPad as a virtual window into the scene, changing the vantage point as you hold the iPad a different angles
* Updated more modern UI design to match iOS 7
* Probably more that I've forgotten

Under the hood:
* Refactored entire code base for ARC to improve ram usage
* Many bug fixes and performance enhancements

Device Requirements:
* This update targets iOS7 and will require at least iOS 6 to install
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 54.4 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Verto Studio 3D 1.4 is $13.99 (USD), through the App Store in the Productivity category. Review copies are available upon request. Version 1.4 is available in English, German, French, Japanese, and Korean languages.

Splyce releases an optimized iOS 7 version of its fancy music player - Published on 09/26/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

InQBarna today announces Splyce - fancy music player with audio and visual magical powers. After a great buzz when it first hit the App Store during the last week of July with over 500K downloads, Splyce releases a new version of its music player with magical DJ powers optimized for iOS 7. The app was designed a few months ago anticipating the design of Apple's new Operating System and now is better & ready to get the best out of iOS 7. New features to make your music experience even greater!

Barcelona, Spain - Apart from living a whole new musical experience, users soon realized that Splyce's design was something different on the App Store. The flat design was one of the keys to success. And it has been empowered on this new version of the app. Inqbarna, the development company responsible for Splyce, has gone even further with the flat design proposal on icons and buttons.

Version 1.1 of Splyce also offers the fancier upgrade for users who are willing to go one step further on the cool features of the app, offering 3 new color themes to customize Splyce's look&feel. And after listening to users' feedback, Splyce displays album artwork in the lock screen.

Developers want to make users' life a bit easier when they throw a party or just working out, so they have added the ability to order the songs from a fast to slow BPM, to be used when the party/training is about to be over.

One of Splyce's most popular features is its auto-mixer. Splyce calculates the BPMs (Beats Per Minute) of the selected tracks and helps the users organize their playlist based on those BPMs (users can see the BPMs on screen and the app shows a different color tone in case a song has a very different rhythm). Then, its powerful music engine mixes the songs in the playlist, synchronizing their tempos and giving the user some settings to play with: mix duration, mix mode, song length and order of the tracks . All these features allow users to easily prepare the music to throw the best parties.

On the visual side, support for Philips Hue led bulb lights has made the app very popular. Splyce synchronizes Philips' Hue lights with the tempo of the music and the bulbs light following the rhythm of the track, with different tones depending if it is a fast or slow song. Partying at home has never been so easy for users and that seems to be the best argument to explain the success of the app in its first days of life. But if the user cannot access Philips Hue they will always have available their screen that can change its illumination according to the music; the flash torch can illuminate a small party.

Splyce is the result of feedback collected for the past three years from users of deej, a DJ mixer app developed by Inqbarna. "Users who were not keen on DJing asked for an app that could mix automatically and where they could set simple features to make a playlist with their favorite tracks" says Nacho Sanchez, Inqbarna's CEO.

Inqbarna has been developing several tools for music lovers or as Mr Sanchez says: "an ecosystem of Social Music Apps". Apart from deej, they have developed TunerTool, a guitar tuner integrated with Riffer, a music social network that allows users to upload 15 seconds of their favorite creations (they can upgrade to 1 minute), share them, like them, comment on others, etc. "After all this work, we begin to understand what users want when it comes to music. We have been working on Splyce for a long time, we were very thoughtful and careful to give music lovers exactly what they told us. And we have tried to do it in a smart way, with a beautiful minimalist design".

Talking about the business model, CEO points out that "freemium was the best way to attract a big number of users. We want them to use the app and give us feedback to improve Splyce according to their needs". They will develop more features included as in-app purchases to monetize the app.

This new iPhone app can be used by all kinds of people in many different situations. For a regular user, it will open a new approach to his or her favorite music, but Splyce can also be used in restaurants, pubs, gyms, by runners...

Splyce will change your music experience:
* As your everyday music player: enjoy your favorite music in a better way
* Partying: take your parties to the next level with Splyce!
* Sports training: follow the rhythm of the music while training hard
* Liven up your business: from a cloth shop to a restaurant or a gym, anyone can enjoy Splyce!

* Load playlists and add or delete songs to improve your sessions
* Drag songs to order them manually or let Splyce's music engine do the hard work for you

Lighting:

* Connect Philips Hue led lights and let the music set the color, tone and beat of the lights. Easy and powerful audiovisual experience.

New releases: developers are already working hard to give users new mixing features and some tools to improve their playlists.

Mac Gamers Join The Fight With INSURGENCY Beta On Mac OS X - Published on 09/26/13

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Indie developer New World Interactive issued a reminder today that the Mac OS X gamers can square off head-to-head against PC gamers in the Beta of their squad-based, competitive shooter INSURGENCY. The Beta version of the game delivers a newly refined level of detail to all gameplay aspects and a vast amount of updated content. INSURGENCY is leading an indie revival of the tactical shooter genre. The new Beta showcases a robust feature set packed with hours of intense tactical shooter goodness.

Denver, Colorado - Indie developer New World Interactive issued a reminder today that the Mac OS X gamers can square off head-to-head against PC gamers in the Beta of their squad-based, competitive shooter INSURGENCY. The Beta version of the game delivers a newly refined level of detail to all gameplay aspects and a vast amount of updated content.

"OS X has become a significant part of our development process," says Jeremy Blum, developmental lead at New World Interactive. "In the past as a mod, Insurgency was a PC-only experience, but since then we have made a significant effort to provide the Insurgency experience to other gaming communities. Mac is first on the list, with support already provided, and Linux is next."

INSURGENCY is leading an indie revival of the tactical shooter genre. In the recently launched Beta, players take to the urban streets for intense close-quarters combat, where a team's survival depends upon securing crucial strongholds in 32-player adversarial combat or in six-player cooperative play.

The new Beta showcases a robust feature set packed with hours of intense tactical shooter goodness. Features include:

* Cross-platform compatibility between Mac and PC players
* 20 Weapons - five of which are new: the M249, RPK, UMP45, M1A1 carbine, and the M4A1
* 8 Fully Updated Maps - including Siege, Uprising, Market, District, Heights, Ministry, Contact and Buhriz.
* Customizable player classes
* Weight-based equipment and gear system
* Team-reinforcing objectives
* Simplified HUD and UI
* Scripting system and SDK to support mods

INSURGENCY's game modes create a distinctive experience from other first-person-shooters. The title offers four multiplayer game modes (of up to 32 players), and two co-operative game modes with bot support (for up to six players). Capturing objectives prolongs the entire team's opportunity to achieve victory, while matches often become an epic tug of war as both teams struggle to gain control of all objectives. With full cross-platform play implemented in the Beta, PC and Mac players can now engage each other in competitive campaigns.

INSURGENCY is a tactical, team-based first-person shooter for up to 32-plus players designed for Windows(R)PC, Mac OS X, (and later on Linux), using Valve's Source Engine and distributed through the Steam platform. If the name INSURGENCY sounds familiar, that's because it's based on the popular total conversion for Half-Life 2 - Insurgency: Modern Infantry Combat - that saw more than a million free downloads and was awarded the ModDB "Player's Choice Mod of the Year" in 2007.
