We released PSOFT Pencil+ 4.1.0 for 3ds Max which supports 3ds Max 2019.

It also includes various bug fixes. Registered users of Pencil+ 4 for 3ds Max can update their products for free.
Changes Since the Previous Version
[New features]
- Added the "Pencil+ 4 Line Renderer" which processes only the drawing of Pencil+ 4 Lines.
- Added the new PLD file format to "Pencil+ 4 File Output".

[Supplement]
- PLD files
PLD is a dedicated data format for editing Pencil+ 4 Lines with Pencil+ 4 Line for After Effects (link to Japanese page).
- Pencil+ 4 Line Renderer
The Pencil+ 4 Line Renderer is a simple renderer which only performs Pencil+ 4 Line computation. It can skip material computation and render only Pencil+ 4 Lines. When using the Pencil+ 4 Line Renderer, rendering is performed with a white background. It can be used for Render Elements and Pencil+ 4 File Output.
