During the exploration of the workflows and production pipelines in game development and 3d design 3d-io has encountered the demand for fast, reliable and optimized unwrapping methods. Unsatisfied with the suboptimal performance of available tools for this task, the company set out to create its own solution, the 3d unwrapper Unwrella, to meet the high quality requirements of productions under tight schedules. After the tool proved it's practicality during production the company decided to make it available and is proud to announce the start of the public beta phase for the UNWRELLA Autodesk™ 3ds Max™ plug-in for 3d artists and game developers.
