If you missed yesterday's Ask ITOOSOFT livestream, the recording is now available.
We had a slightly shaky start getting familiar with some new streaming software, but once things settled down we covered a lot of ground, including the new RailClone interior libraries, parametric awnings, Forest Lister updates, scattering decals with ForestPack; lots of RailClone tips include arches, fence braces, parallax materials; and even a bonus TyFlow Landscape demo.
Watch the full recording from the link in our bio.
Chevron is just one of the new parquet flooring styles in RailClone.
To use it, just load a preset and pick a spline. Adjust board size, add subtle variation, swap materials, control the angle, and much more.

Industrial Light & Magic Senior Generalist Artist Steffen Hampel (@stfvfx ) shares a personal project inspired by Fallout.
Built in Autodesk 3ds Max and rendered with V-Ray, the project shows what a single talented artist can achieve with the right tools. Environments are assembled using ForestPack to handle large-scale scattering.
The reel format really doesn't do this video justice, so be sure to watch the full widescreen video and breakdown from the "latest gallery" link in our bio!
Parametric awnings are now available in RailClone.
Easily swap fabrics, adjust size, randomise openness and angle - all from a few simple parameters.
Available now via Update Manager.

Check out this nature-based render by Joris Bourgeois for a winding bicycle and pedestrian bridge proposal to connect Neeroeteren to the Hoge Kempen National Park in Belgium. Designed to blend seamlessly into its surroundings, the structure avoids dominant supports and guides users through a tree-lined experience. ForestPack and RailClone played a key role in rendering the landscape and complex geometry.
Create fully parametric herringbone parquet floors in 3ds Max using RailClone with control over board width, length, thickness, gaps, tilt, layout, rotation and more.

ForestPack 9.4.0 and RailClone 7.3.0 are now available with support for 3ds Max 2027. Although primarily a compatibility release, we also added a couple of extra handy improvements:
• ForestLister now supports ForestIvy, ForestSet and ForestLOD objects, with improved stability.
• RailClone now has more exportable parameters, and macro parameters are now grouped by category.

A new parametric floorboards system for RailClone gives you full control over layout and variation. Adjust board width and length, introduce subtle thickness changes, offset joints across rows, and rotate the pattern to any angle.
A new RailClone library with 10 parametric skirting styles and built-in material presets. Create them from a spline, adjust positioning, and customise materials to suit any interior.
A new RailClone library adds 24 parametric ceiling moulding styles. Generate them from a spline, adjust offsets, and align cleanly to any room layout in seconds.

Check out our new case study with The Ruby Cube (@trc3d ) to discover how how 3D visualisation is being used to support rewilding and landscape recovery projects across the UK.
The team uses #ForestPack extensively to build layered, natural vegetation systems that reflect real ecological patterns.
