N-Sided has just announced the newest version of it’s Argile 3D Retouching system, Argile2. This version contains several new features such as an integrated texture library, support for CAD-CAM formats like 3DM and STL, and improved real-time visualization.  They’ve also added some interesting “Z-Brush lite” type features.

Argile 2 offers its own UV projection system that, in a few clicks, will add UV coordinates to your imported objects so that they can be painted.

On top of that, N-Sided innovates again by inventing an advanced system for UV retouches. It lets you modify the texture positioning directly by clicking and dragging on the 3D model. Work on the final result as if you were deforming the texture!

Limited-functionality trial versions are available for download, and the full version is available from the store for approximately 89EUR (~$124 US).  Different packages are available, and discounts are available for Argile1 users.
