No official release date will be announced until after the Open Beta program has started Tuesday and we've had a chance to review the initial feedback.

Cool, i really can't wait to work with version 9.

* Edge Selection (throughout Modeler)
* N-gons (polygons greater than 4 sides) for subdivision surface modeling

I'm glad newtek finally put these 2 options into lightwave.

I used edge selection for maya some time ago, and i really missed it in lightwave.

I looked at some of video demos and i gotta say that LW 9 is WORTH GETTING!!!!
I was especially interested in the wind demo...Crazy control and fast calculations/movement.

If i had money then this is something i would definetly invest in.

I know i'm in no position to tell you this but if you could keep all these new demo posts to one 1 thread then it wouldn't be hard to look through all the new demos...
Other than that i think its awesome that you guys are rolling out with all these new demos!! :beer:

No problem. Some other forums where we've been asked to post are so busy that the thread is all but unfindable when I'm ready to post the next one. If a moderator would like to combine the video threads into one, I'll be happy to post in it as new ones come out.
