San Hose, Jan 23 (IANS) Adobe on Wednesday announced it has acquired 3D editing leader Allegorithmic -- makers of "Substance" which is the industry standard for 3D textures and material creation in game and video post-production -- for an undisclosed sum.
By combining France-based Allegorithmic's "Substance" 3D design tools with Adobe Creative Cloud's imaging, video and motion graphics tools, Adobe will empower video game creators, VFX artists working in film and television, designers and marketers to deliver Next-Gen immersive experiences, the company said in a statement.
