Editions
VxCraft Free Edition
The Free Edition provides basic functions that are especially suitable for beginners or users with simple projects. You can create 3D heightmaps from graphics and use the roughing, contour and engrave job. However, you are restricted to a limited number of models, tools, and jobs per project. Features such as multi-sided machining and advanced job parameters are not available. In addition, powerful features such as radius correction and collision checking are already included in this edition.
VxCraft Pro Edition
With the Pro Edition, all objects can be freely placed and rotated, so that 3-axis editing of the scene is possible from all directions. Furthermore, the Pro Edition contains all the functions of the Free Edition and extends it with numerous additional features.
