Description

Multifunctional dynamics simulator that seamlessly integrates into Autodesk 3ds Max or V-Ray. Chaos® Phoenix can create a wide variety of effects, including smoke, liquids and flames, explosions as well as rigid body simulations, ocean waves and mist. It is easy to set up and quick to use, and the powerful simulation engine allows for complete control over more complicated effects. Chaos® Phoenix is a one-stop solution for fluid dynamics. Simulate fire, smoke and liquids, as well as ocean waves, splashes and mist, and other fluid dynamics. Designed for 3D artists who need to create dynamic FX quickly using presets, quick setup and intuitive controls. Viewport allows you to preview and render interactively. You can adjust simulations as you go. You can create all kinds of fluid effects based on physical properties using flexible controls that allow you to quickly render, retiming, and refine simulations. Integrated seamlessly into 3ds Max, optimized to render with Chaos Vray®.

Description

Export your particle effects as static animations on sprite sheets, animation strips, or as image sequences in PNG format; alternatively, if you're developing for iPhone or iPad, you can utilize the PVRTC format (available on Mac only). For those programming games with the robust Blitzmax language, the effects can be directly integrated using the TimelineFX Module. You can generate an endless variety of particle effects such as explosions, smoke, fire, water, steam, bubbles, and many others! Configuring animations for seamless looping is as simple as a single mouse click, and with an additional click, you can also create seamlessly tiling animations suitable for animated textures, featuring effects like smoke, fire, explosions, water, flares, and clouds. Moreover, a vast collection of free effects is available for download to enhance your projects. With 24 attributes to fine-tune your particle emitters, you can manipulate their behavior over time with precision using intuitive graphs. This level of control allows for the creation of intricate and dynamic effects tailored to your specific needs.
