New version of Ab3d.Reader3ds available

I hope you did not notice that the actual version of Reader3ds has expired today. If you did, I would like to apologize for the inconvenience.

So finally the new version 4.3 is available for download.
This is the last freely available version and will expire on 31th December 2008.

The following is the list of changes:

  • Fixed bug where camera name or light name is longer than 8 characters (ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Length cannot be less than zero.).
  • Added public static get ExpirationDate - so it is possible to get expiration date without actually creating an instance of Reader3ds (this can already throw expired exception).
  • Fixed exception when reading 3ds file without any animation keyframe.

    The commercial version is already prepared. The version 4.3 is almost the same as the commercial version – the only difference is that it does not contain licensing system (it has the nasty expiration date).

    The commercial version should be available at the end of the week. I need to move the site to a new and faster server and then it will be possible to purchase the license (automatically on the new site).

    Another great news is that new versions of Ab2d.ReaderSvg and Ab2d.ReaderWmf are also almost prepared and will be published very soon. And until the end of the month commercial versions of both will be available also.
