If You are a Graphics Geek Like Me....
🕑 Added 2017-12-15 04:36:45 +0000 UTC There was a demonstration given last year that showed an early build of the new version of Lightwave.. Now that Lightwave2018 is officially announced, the video of this demonstration is available for all to see.In the video he refers to it as Lightwave2017. He was under the impression that it would come out a year earlier. But this shows in greater detail how the material system has been revamped and now everything is "physically-based."
So if you are interested in the geeky-techie info, if you are bored, or you just love sexy beards, you can watch the demonstration here:

And so yeah, the plan is for Maria's upcoming animation to be rendered in Lightwave2018. This means her materials will have to be re-vamped. But she will look all the better for it.
EDIT: It's worth noting that physically-based materials are not the main feature of Lightwave2018 that I am interested in. This is just a nice bit of icing on the cake.. The other features I am looking for greater benefit from are related to displacement tech and making joint-correcting morphs.
