Rumour was that discreet was considering the future of Combustion for the MAC. We can today officially confirm that C3 will be on the G5, under Panther the next planned Mac OSX release.
FxGuide has a brief comment from the product manager of Combustion. The article also has an initial review of the pre-release Cv3 Windows software from one of our communities leading Combustion experts, Jack Pfeiffer. Jack is well known internationally as a Combustion Specialist based at MCI Videotronic in Denmark (www.mci.dk) In this FX Guide exclusive article, Jack summarizes the new features and functions, and there are first peek screenshots and screen layouts, as well as a view of the new Cv3 box.
The combustion 3 Windows expected ship date is fall 2003, followed by combustion 3 for Macintosh in early 2004. The Mac delay will allow Discreet to have more time to optimize Combustion for the G5, as well as the new Panther OS. Note that Combustion v3 on the Mac will run on OS X only.
