The next version of 3DF Zephyr (Codename Clementine) is already in development.
The tentative release date is set for the early Summer 2019, although some closed beta versions will be certainly released before.
Here's a brief report of the planned features in development and their status.
Note: this is not the final feature lists: new planned features will be unveiled as we get closer to release!
Major features and updates
Detail enhancement for mesh
Better detail extraction during the mvs/mesh extraction
Advanced Development (75%)
Speeded up MVS stereo generation
The multiview stereo has been speeded up further
Advanced Development (75%)
Better texture UV packing
Better UV packing algorithm during mesh generation (space saving)
Ready for testing (90%)
