    All maps included and ready to go. Quality tested for sharpness, tileability and accuracy of PBR maps. Ready to use in 15 native formats, quality tested models. You can find a new style for you next project with our range of 360 sky captures or studio lighting setups. You can get up-close realism using imperfection maps that replicate microscopic details. No need to set up tedious nodes. No more tedious nodes to set up. This simply means that these materials have resolutions set to powers 2 (e.g. 1024, 2048 and 4096). Some may be 2048x1024 while others may be square. Sometimes, you might find a "Game Ready texture" that does not have a resolution set to a power-of-two size. These textures can still be used in game engines if you resize them to a larger resolution.

    Houdini Reviews
    Houdini was designed from the ground up to empower artists to work freely, create multiple iterations, and quickly share workflows with their colleagues. Houdini stores every action in a node. These nodes are "wired" into networks that define a "recipe", which can be tweaked to improve the outcome, then repeated to create unique results. Houdini's procedural nature is due to the ability of nodes to be saved or to pass information (in the form of attributes) down the chain. Houdini's unique nodes are what make it powerful. However, there are many viewport and shelf tools which allow for artist-friendly interaction. Behind the scenes, Houdini creates the networks and nodes for you. Houdini allows artists to explore new creative paths, as it is easy for them to branch off to explore other solutions.

    RenderDotC Reviews

    RenderDotC

    Dot C Software

    $500
    RenderDotC is Dot C Software's flagship product. It is a photorealistic renderer that can produce stunning effects for film. RenderDotC's low price-performance ratio is the main reason why people choose it. RenderDotC also scores well in all areas that are important for a production renderer. RenderDotC images have an indescribable, yet beautiful quality that some refer to as the "RenderMan look". All phenomena that are susceptible to aliasing artifacts will be effectively anti-aliased. Noise is also kept to a minimum. RenderDotC was created in the 1990's to make the most of current hardware and software technologies. Its CPU and memory performance are unmatched by other renderers in its category. It is difficult to get every detail right when creating a renderer. This only happens with experience. RenderDotC's pricing is competitive for both broadcast and film markets.
