The plugin, which promises to be artist-friendly, allows for the simulation of digital character crowds to populate 3D scenes quickly.
Golaem Crowd is a crowd simulation software that’s optimized for Maya. Used with Maya, MiArmy lets you create visually stunning VFX crowds that interact in a realistic manner. With this plugin, you can create armies instead of separate models. MiArmy is a Human Logic Engine-based plugin that’s used for crowd simulations, creature physical simulation, AI and behavioral animation as well as rendering. RealFlow also comes with GPU acceleration and simulation solvers to speed up your workflows. This plugin lets you simulate granular, viscous, viscoelastic, rigid, and elastic materials quickly and easily. Next Limit Technologies’ RealFlow is seamlessly integrated into Maya to help you create and render advanced photorealistic dynamic and liquid simulations. Phoenix FD is also used to create any type of physically based fluid effects with tools for refining, retiming and rendering simulations. Combined with Maya, this artist-friendly plugin allows you to create fluid dynamic effects that are quick to set up and easy to control. One of the best plugins for Maya, Chaos Group’s Phoenix FD is an all-in-one fluid dynamics plugin that lets you create a host of realistic simulations such as fire, smoke, liquids, ocean waves, splashes, spray, and mist. The app lets you set area lights and control both the HDRI map and set of area lights interactively.ĭownload HDR Light Studio here Phoenix FD + Maya Combined with Maya, this tool offers intuitively designed lighting controls.
HDR Light Studio is a favorite among professional 3D artists worldwide because of the user-friendly interface. Lightmap’s HDR Light Studio is a CG lighting tool that lets you custom design HDR images in any renderer. Vue for Maya also comes with a host of lighting options for creating outdoor and indoor scenes, highly complex shaders as well as 2 render engines (CPU Ray-tracer and a hybrid GPU/CPU Path tracer).ĭownload Vue here HDR Light Studio + Maya This software lets you create and animate different 3D scenes using a vast arsenal of rendering tools, including volumetric effects, terrain modeling, vegetation modeling, clouds, and atmospheres, just to name a few. VUE is a standalone animation software that also works as a plugin for Maya. The plugin also offers a massive library of 3D plants and trees to choose from. When paired with Maya, Carbon Scatter integrates e-On’s patented EcoSystem™ algorithms, allowing you to create millions of 3D trees, plants, stones, and other objects. This plugin harnesses the Vue Solid growth and population engine to create complex, detailed populations and environments. I had a lot of fun creating this for you and everything I have done inside the course is aimed at addressing the lack of information on the subject on the internet.E-On Software’s Carbon Scatter is a scattering plugin that’s used to create vegetation in popular host applications like Maya. professionals and students wanting to intergrate this into work or existing projects.Beginners upwards will find this of interest.This course is for anyone interested in particle and dynamic simulations.3 Tutorials that cover everything taught.Importing Realflow simulations and objects into Maya.Getting to grips with Realflow interface.This is the first course on Udemy as of on Dynamics simulations on Udemy and I feel it deserves its place within the 3D Courses!Įnjoy working through the early stages of learning Realfow and then into projects as I take you on an action packed course into the world of 3D Particle simulations in Reaflow 2014!
Dynamic Simulations with fluids/particles using Realflow 2014Īt the time of release this is the First course on "Dynamic Particle Simulations on Udemy"Ĭreating particle simulations is sometimes very complex this course is the first one to try to simplify the process and is meant as a starter course into the amazing world of particle simulations, having seen and watched many tutorials on the subject I felt there was a massive need to follow complete processes and make it understandable to intermnediate and beginners alike.
