Great news for Cinema 4D users. Cinema 4D users can now access over 200,000 freely downloadable 3D models from Sketchfab using our new Cinema 4D Importer plugin.
The plugin uses our Download API to let you search Creative Commons licensed models from our community and download them directly into your Cinema 4D scene.
Models can be searched by keyword(s) or browsed. The addon then presents thumbnails of results and each one can be opened on Sketchfab.com for a full 3D preview if desired before downloading directly into Cinema 4D.

With this tool, you can read epub file type on Windows OS.
As you know already, the epub file type is: EPUB is an e-book file format that uses the ".epub" file extension. The term is short for electronic publication and is sometimes styled ePub. EPUB is supported by many e-readers, and compatible software is available for most smartphones, tablets, and computers. EPUB is a technical standard published by the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF). It became an official standard of the IDPF in September 2007, superseding the older Open eBook standard.[2]
The Book Industry Study Group endorses EPUB 3 as the format of choice for packaging content and has stated that the global book publishing industry should rally around a single standard.[3], see Wikipedia.

The software interface consists of two parts, the left will show document chapter directory, the right is a browser to show document content. This software is easy to use very much, it is a freeware and completely free to use.

Now I'm working with an project , but I can make my free time for smaller or longer projects ...
I can come up with a $ 5 / day offer for graphics and drawing production:
the formats obtained with the free software;
Blender 3D versions 2.79 and 2.8 for 3D graphics;
Inkscape, Gimp, and Krita for 2D graphics;
Note: for painting and drawing other than, the $ 5 / day offer, the materials used (color watercolor or acrylic, quality paper or canvas, frames) for the final product will also be calculated. Email for contact: catafest@yahoo.com
See some of my work search me on web with my name Cătălin George Feștilă or nicknames catafest and mythcat:
The Krita application is written in C++ using an application framework called Qt5.
You can use python to create scripts for Krita software.
You can use Tools - Script - Scripter from the main menu to write your python script.
I don't use often this python module, but today I created this script.
The script creates a new document with size 512x512 named Python test document.
After that create a duplicate of the layer named Background.
The new layer is named the new Layer duplicate.
from krita import *
from krita import Krita
print(dir(krita))
print(help(Krita))
d = Krita.instance().createDocument(512, 512, "Python test document", "RGBA", "U8", "", 120.0)
Krita.instance().activeWindow().addView(d)
print(dir(d))
print(Krita.instance().filters())
node_name = 'Background'
node = d.nodeByName(node_name)
print(node.name())
print(dir(node))
d_n = node.duplicate()
print(dir(d_n))
d_n.setName("new Layer duplicate")
print(d_n.name())
root_node = d.rootNode()
print(help(root_node.addChildNode))
root_node.addChildNode(d_n, node)
The development team comes tells us about the new Blender 2.80 Release Candidate on the official webpage: A Release Candidate is the final step before the release. Blender has been built and packaged just like the official release, and is available for a short period of testing. Please download it and give it a good try. If things go as expected, the final release will be one week after.
The Blender 3D team want to test it and report any issue: The massive Blender 2.80 update is around the corner! Download and test this build and report any issue on developer.blender.org
After download you can see a message about supporting the Blender software:
Thank you for downloading Blender!
Next step: Support Blender Development
Join the new Development Fund for only $6 / month
and ensure the future of Blender.
I test it with the last blender file I worked ( a raspberry work, see http://festila-george-catalin.daportfolio.com).
This release works great.
The BlenderDiplom youtube channel comes with a video introduction about this new release:
The NeaAxis Engine has a fast development team and released a new version 2019.2.4 version.
From the 16 June 2019 up to 11 July 2019 they come with many features.
The following features have been added and can be read at the official website see the team announcement :
Significant optimizations of the rendering pipeline.
Rendering is multi-threaded computed now, automatic GPU instancing has been added.
Import content tool enhancements have been improved.
Easy import from library Quixel Megascans is now supported.
The ability to use the engine widget in Windows Forms and WPF applications has been added.
Billboard rendering has been improved.
Now they are drawn faster and support shadows.
A high-quality anti-aliasing mode has been added. Supersampling anti-aliasing (SSAA).
Documentation has been improved. Class descriptions have been added.
They come with a roadmap on the official website to see how the development works.
I want to see tutorials and video tutorial to follow my issues with C# but I expected to see it in the future.
