(St Rose, LA, March 20, 2001)--Digimation, Inc. announces the immediate availability of Morph-O-Matic, the first, true progressive morpher developed by Di-O-Matic, Inc. for Discreet's 3ds max 3 and 4.

Morph-O-Matic has been designed as a tool to assist animators in creating complex facial, hand, and other morph animation in a production environment. It allows greater control of morphs with fewer channels. Users get view-dependent morphing as well as an unlimited number of channels and targets per channel.

Take ultimate control over your characters' emotions and expressions, including lip-sync and true morphing materials for use in high-end animations. And do it all in less time, and with much less effort. No matter how complex the model or how numerous the targets are, Morph-O-Matic's progressive morphing system always gives fast, accurate results.

3ds max users will find a wide range of features in Morph-O-Matic including:

Unlimited number of channels

View-dependant morphing

Cut/Copy/Paste on selected channels

Save/Load geometry of targets

Cubic Spline Interpolation on Progressive channels

Extract all deleted targets and re-bind them

Soft-Selection support

"I stopped messing around with half baked morph plug-ins the day I got my paws on Morph-O-Matic. Finally a plug-in that got it right. Everything you need when you need it. So you can stop moaning now kids - M.O.M is cooking all your morphs now!" touts Ian Gregory of C.O.R.E. Digital Pictures.

This plug-in integrates well with another release from Digimation and Di-O-Matic, Cluster-O-Matic, a new clustering and animation tool. Morph-O-Matic is available for 3ds max 3 and 4 for only $199.00.
