U-RENDER ends the public beta test phase and launches into Early Access, starting 17. December 2018.
UPPERCUT visual technology launches a cost-effective early access version of their high-quality real-time viewport renderer for Cinema 4D U-Render. Recently U-Render graduated out fo the beta phase and as of today is launching into early access.
The new renderer is a high-quality real-time viewport one for Cinema 4D that can integrate into traditional rendering pipelines and is designed to support and even replace offline CPU and GPU rendering solutions.
U-RENDER is available directly from the website or from worldwide distribution partners.
U-RENDER Launches into Early Access
U-RENDER Early Access provides a cost effective version to establish high quality realtime rendering in production pipelines.
Klagenfurt, Austria – 12. December 2018 – U-RENDER ends the public beta test phase and launches into Early Access, starting 17. December 2018
U-RENDER Early Access provides a very cost effective version to establish high quality realtime rendering in production pipelines.
The Early Access product will be “U-RENDER for Cinema 4D” and will include the U-RENDER renderer as well as the Cinema 4D host plug-in.
Early Access is a bridge between the beta version and a later, proven version “1.x”. The intention is to smooth over typical “Version 1.0” issues. Customers are able to adopt and establish new workflows and services earlier, increasing their lead on competitors by using U-RENDER for high quality realtime rendering.
U-RENDER Early Access will go on sale on 17. December 2018. The free, public beta test will end with the start of Early Access.
The Early Access version will still be designated as Beta version at launch and change to Stable at some point during the Early Access phase.
Early Access allows customers to purchase U-RENDER at a strongly discounted price – including all updates during the first 12 months. U-RENDER Early Access will start at € 199 MSRP (net plus applicable taxes).
As U-RENDER is improved and new features are added, the price will be increased over time. The target price for U-RENDER after leaving Early Access is € 399.

About U-RENDER
High Quality Realtime Rendering for Design, Animation and Visualization
Based on the latest advancements in realtime rendering, U-RENDER integrates into traditional rendering pipelines and is designed to support and even replace offline CPU and GPU rendering solutions.
Achieving high quality rendering results in milliseconds, U-RENDER is the ideal solution for look development, design ideation and creative experimentation. It provides stunning results that can be used to accelerate the creative process, delivering high quality results suitable as final delivery.
U-RENDER helps to dramatically reduce iteration times and allows for cost savings in both hardware investments and energy consumption. Available as Early Access version, U-RENDER provides a cost effective solution to establish high quality realtime rendering in production pipelines.
U-RENDER’s physically based lights and materials allow full creative control with relatively few parameters to create realistic surfaces. Building on established industry best practices, U-RENDER’s material system allows to use a wide range of readily available material and texture libraries based on PBR principles.
To accelerate texturing, U-RENDER supports a wide range of procedural texture projections that make the painstaking process of UV unwrapping unnecessary. This can accelerate look development and supports early phases of experimental creative processes.
To allow a maximum of flexibility in later compositing stages, U-RENDER supports the output of multiple passes – including material and object masks. Passes allow fine grained control over the final appearance and provides extra flexibility to artists who want to leverage render result to their fullest.
For creatives who want to skip extensive compositing and post production, U-RENDER comes with a range of post processing effects to accelerate the finishing of images. Effects like bloom, vignette and chromatic aberration allow for quick adjustments that can push renderings even further.
