NUKE 10 is coming soon

Coming in early 2016, NUKE 10 focuses on enhancing performance, increasing stability, blitzing bugs and delivering new functionality in the areas that matter most to artists: paint, rendering, playback, export and more. 

NUKE 10's new features and enhancements are designed to speed up the tasks at the core of every compositing job. A new 3D ray trace renderer gives NUKE the ability to create native reflections, and also scales better and produces higher quality output. Meanwhile, NUKEX and NUKE STUDIO get a powerful new Smart Paint toolset that lets you add textures or paint to image sequences that contain complex motion or subtle detail.

NUKE STUDIO’s timeline toolset is now equipped with new in-timeline soft effects including a real-time keyer; enhanced audio handling; and a big push on improving performance.

The open beta will be available 14 January 2016 to customers on valid maintenance. More info on Nuke site.
