On October 26th 2015, Sitni Sati has released FumeFX 4.0 for Autodesk's 3ds max platform. FumeFX 4.0 offers many new features that help simulations to run faster and with more detail. The new FumeFX 4.0 QCG solver is up to twice as fast as the CG solver found in FumeFX 3.0. Along with other simulation optimizations, FumeFX 4.0 can complete simulation faster than any previous version of FumeFX. New vorticity type has additional control over vortices which helps user to fine tune the final result. The highly optimized Spline Follow force field allows various special effects that were impossible before.
Built-in Black-body radiation shader and new burning model that includes Oxygen are powerful tools for achieving realistic fire and explosion animations. Sharpening at render-time will bring out maximum possible detail from your existing caches. Features such as faster solver, advanced vorticity, new burning model, smoke and fire sharpening at render time, fields sharpening at simulation time, improved caches handling and many other will allow users to create more detailed simulations in less time.
Effectors are the most valuable and the most powerful feature. With just a few mouse clicks, artists can tweak the laws of physics or alter any simulated field based on built-in rules. For example, Effectors can drive setups where vorticity is controlled by velocity, gravity is controlled by smoke color and fire is created in voxels where velocity is above a user-defined threshold. All of this can be further refined by powerful test conditions or even confined to the Effector's gizmo.
RenderWarps are another great tool that will find application on many VFX shots. This feature allows users to apply space warps such as FFD, Bend, Taper and Noise to precomputed FumeFX caches. As RenderWarps are a post-process, re-simulation is not needed.
N-Sim enables artists to connect many grids together and execute their simulations simultaneously as one big simulation. This approach can be invaluable for increasing the level of detail in scene setups such as a rocket launch.
The GPU accelerated Preview Window is another time-saver, providing instant feedback for adjusting rendering parameters. Self-shadows are computed extremely fast and the user can orbit the camera around FumeFX with self-shadows in real-time(On GeForce GTX 460 and similar cards). FumeFX also supports preview with geometry included in simulation.
FumeFX has been production proven in titles such as Hugo, Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance,Thor, Priest, 2012, Skyline, Suckerpunch, Spiderman 3, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Superman Returns, Iron Man, The Host (Gwoemul) and various games cinematics such as Warhammer Online, Classic Transformers, Dante's Inferno and others.
Key Features
- Production proven results demonstrate this technology's ability to achieve realistic smoke and fire effects for cutting-edge industry applications. - FumeFX supplements the user's artistic vision with the power of real-world physics for the ultimate in both style and realism. - GPU accelerated Preview Windows with self-shadows and geometry. - A multitude of parameters and FumeFX helpers give users maximum control of the fluid's behavior and appearance. - Easy to use, basic effects can be created with just a few clicks. - Options include the use of powerful AFC and Gradient controls, which are unified through all Sitni Sati products. - Plug-in design incorporates extensive support for Particle Flow and Thinking Particles. - Dynamic simulations allow for bi-directional influence between FumeFX and particle systems. - Advanced scripting via MAXScript is possible with almost every aspect of FumeFX, including access to all simulation data. - FumeFX is capable of dynamic interaction with other scene objects.
Simulation
- New and faster solver since FumeFX 4.0. - Advanced vorticity type. - Simulation of nested grids in one go (N-Sim). - Powerfull Effectors that can control almost every parameter on a per-voxel basis. - Application of various Space Warp deformers on caches. - Particle Source controllers provide support for ParticleFlow float and vector channel access. It is also possible to pick any Particle Flow event directly. - Field3D and OpenVDB 3.0 I/O support. - FumeFX can use Variable Density solver that uses smoke density and temperature as variables. - Start simulations from scratch or by using other simulation results as a starting point. - Stop, pause and continue simulations at any point. - E-mail notifications. - Simulation is multithreaded - users can select how many CPU's to dedicate to their simulation. - Users can watch the simulation progress in the interactive GPU accelerated Preview Window. - Interactive simulation allows user to change almost every parameter during the simulation and see it's influence on the simulation result. - Draft simulations can be created in mere minutes for fast previewing. - Multiple advection schemes that can minimize numerical dissipation. - User has control of which data is written to output files for rendering and further processing. - Wavelet Turbulence algorithm quickly adds extra detail to low resolution simulation caches while preserving the existing overall motion. - Retimer is a very efficient and fast method to slow down or speed up caches without the need to re-run simulation. - Post Processing module can significantly reduce cache size by optimizing grid size around smoke/fire. It also allows users to decide which channels will be excluded from the final caches.
