thinkingParticles 4.0 Demo Version available for download
About the Demo Version
cebas is proud to release its new thinkingParticles R4 Demo Version. We have tried to make the thinkingParticles Demo experience as close to the full version as possible. However, as you know, there have to be some restrictions in a Demo Version which are usually time restrictions. As thinkingParticles is a vast and very powerful application, 30 days may not be adequate to evaluate and learn.
We choose instead, to limit only a few of the features that allow you to work with thinkingParticles, for as long as you like. Find below a list of features that are restricted in this Demo Version of thinkingParticles. These features are mostly production environment and rendering restrictions; we hope that they will not affect your learning and ability to experience the full power of thinkingParticles.
