Bforartists

About

Bforartists is a free, open-source 3D suite originating from Germany, designed to provide a complete 3D art pipeline for creating game graphics, prerendered movies, and stills. Positioned as a user-friendly alternative in the 3D graphics software market, it distinguishes itself with a more intuitive user interface and controls, such as left-click selection, which users often find more bearable than other software like Blender. Its comprehensive product portfolio includes robust features for animation, modeling, 3D sculpting, rendering (with graphics card support), texturing, texture painting, keyframe animation, motion capture, live preview, and parametric modeling. The suite also boasts a non-linear editor, compositor, dark mode, and support for layers, all while being lightweight, customizable, and functional offline without registration. Available across multiple platforms including Windows, Linux, Haiku, AmigaOS, and MorphOS, Bforartists is lauded by users as the 'best free, complete 3D suite available' for its open-source nature and enhanced usability, making it a strong competitor in the 3D graphics and animation industry. While specific revenue figures, leadership, or employee counts are not provided for this open-source project, its free and open-source license underscores its community-driven model.
