Description

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.

Description

VUE stands out as the sole comprehensive package available for crafting stunning computer-generated environments. It encompasses a wide array of elements, including skies, volumetric clouds, diverse terrains, extensive EcoSystems, wind-blown vegetation, expansive water bodies, roads, and rocks—all readily accessible for immediate use. Whether you choose to set up and render directly within VUE or leverage the robust integration plugins offered in the Professional and Enterprise versions, you can create, export, and adapt entire scenes for rendering in various applications and engines. The platform features an artist-centric interface equipped with specialized tools tailored for the creation of natural environments. You can develop materials that respond dynamically to factors like altitude, slope, and water levels, use natural distribution rules to paint instances across all viewports, and design EcoSystems that ensure no two plants ever appear identical. With its extensive functionality and user-friendly design, VUE truly empowers artists to achieve their creative visions seamlessly.
