9/11/08 - Genetica 3.0 Open Beta Begins
The Genetica beta test is opened to all.

Spiral Graphics has opened the beta test of Genetica 3.0 to the public. Genetica 3.0 is the highly anticipated new version of Spiral Graphics' seamless texture, HDRI, and animation editor. The beta can be freely downloaded here.

Features added to the new version include seamless vector drawing tools, editable visual styles that can be applied to designs, HDRI environment map editing, a realistic new lighting model, new nodes and effects, and a dramatically expanded library of royalty-free texture presets. A video demonstrating the features is available here.

Open beta testers will be downloading the Studio edition of Genetica. In addition to the other features, Genetica 3.0 Studio offers powerful animation capability for the creation of texture and effect animations. Animations will automatically loop and be seamlessly repeatable.

Spiral Graphics is currently offering significant savings through an Early Bird Discount for artists who purchase Genetica 3.0 before the end of its open beta. The open beta period marks the final testing phase before Genetica 3.0 is released in approximately a month's time.
