This step now also enables studios whose pipeline runs on Windows to work with Katana. In addition, according to The Foundry, the toolset is easier to install and support for a range of rendering tools has also been added: Renderman, V-Ray, Arnold and 3Delight are among them.
Katana 2.5 is currently available as a beta version, but is due to be delivered as a full version soon. Platforms supported by Katana include Linux RHEL Centos 6 and Windows 7 64-bit.
Katana is available from The Foundry from around 6,000 euros. All further information about the new release here.
