Now shipping, Maya 8.5 is available for Intel-based Macintosh computers. The software enables faster completion of complex animation and simulation tasks, giving artists enhanced creative control on multiple platforms."Our goal is to give digital artists choice and flexibility in their 3D tools and platforms," said Marc Petit, Autodesk's Media & Entertainment vice president.
