The demo version is already available for download.
I've been testing this version for several months now and am quite happy with new features as well as what feels like a really responsive and stable interface.
One of the things I have been the happiest about is that Artlantis now supports layers. ArchiCAD layers transfer with the model, and more layers can be created within Artlantis 3 for placed objects. Visibility of layers is associated with each saved camera (view), so that we can now generate a batch of images with different visible elements.
The animated clouds and water add a great deal more realism to certain animations that otherwise might have looked a little odd with a static sky and water. Even a still shot of a building with water in the foreground becomes an interesting "animation" with the water rippling and the clouds and perhaps sun moving. A sun study no longer looks odd when the clouds stay in the same position from dusk to dawn - but you need to be careful not to move them so quickly that your audience gets motion sickness.
I confess that I only tested Artlantis 3 with exterior views. Someone who has tried the new interior lighting fall-offs will have to tell you about them.
You can also export your Artlantis model for the first time in standard 3D formats. (But, a "burned" version of the shaders/illumination is not part of that process.)
Check out the full feature list.
Cheers,
