K-3D Portable 0.8.0.1 Rev 2 is a 3D modeling and animation software package that combines flexible plugins with a visualization pipeline architecture into a powerful tool for artists. This release updates to the latest format. Platform users will get a small quick-install patch. It's packaged in PortableApps.com Format so it can easily integrate with the PortableApps.com Platform. And it's open source and completely free.

Features
New artists will find K-3D easy to understand, and professionals feel right at home. K-3D is intuitive, consistent, and discoverable. K-3D features procedural and parametric workflows. Properties can be adjusted interactively and results appear immediately. The powerful, node-based visualization pipeline allows more possibilities than traditional modifier stacks or histories. Selection flows from one modifier to the next. An advanced undo/redo system ensures you can always go back, and the pioneering undo tree means you can always go forward, even where other programs lose the ability to redo. Industrial-strength standards form the foundation on which K-3D builds - including native RenderMan™ support that integrates tightly with the K-3D user interface.

Graphics Note: K-3D makes heavy use of your PC's graphics system. In Windows Vista and 7 it may cause Windows to temporarily switch out of the Aero theme to Basic. It may not run while applications with advanced graphics hooks are running (VMs like VirtualBox, for example).

K-3D Portable is packaged in a PortableApps.com Installer so it will automatically detect an existing PortableApps.com installation when your drive is plugged in. It supports upgrades by installing right over an existing copy, preserving all settings. And it's in PortableApps.com Format, so it automatically works with the PortableApps.com Platform including the Menu and Backup Utility.
