3Delight
Presenting 3Delight, a remarkably straightforward and swift rendering solution. This high-performance production rendering software and its associated tools come with unparalleled support services. Based in Singapore, Illumination Research focuses on providing rendering solutions tailored for the rigorous demands of the VFX and animation production workflow. Since its inception in 2002, 3Delight has been utilized in a multitude of feature films and commercials. Our offerings include 3DelightNSI, 3Delight for Maya, and 3Delight for Katana, and we are currently testing a rendering service via 3Delight Cloud. The 3Delight for Maya plug-in is designed specifically for Autodesk® Maya®, allowing artists to work easily while retaining the versatility needed for complex rendering pipelines. Additionally, the complimentary version of 3Delight includes a full license with access to all features, although it limits rendering to a maximum of 12 cores on your system. This ensures that newcomers can experience the power of professional rendering without overwhelming their resources.

FurryBall
FurryBall merges the rapid rendering capabilities of GPUs with the high quality and extensive features typically found in CPU rendering systems. This rendering solution is notably swift, leveraging GPU power to achieve remarkable speed unlike traditional CPU-based systems. However, it is important to note that FurryBall was discontinued in 2018, and as such, no support or maintenance is available for users. The software offers standalone versions and plugins compatible with Autodesk Maya, 3DS Max, and Cinema 4D. Additionally, FurryBall employs UNBIASED Monte Carlo raytracing (a path tracing method akin to the CPU-based Arnold renderer) while providing real-time progressive previews directly in the viewport. The system supports final frame rendering in various file formats, along with the ability to handle layers and passes efficiently. Originally designed for CGI animated films, visual effects, and feature movie production, FurryBall RT is particularly user-friendly, allowing artists to adjust the overall image quality with just a single parameter if desired. This combination of features made FurryBall a unique tool in the rendering landscape before its discontinuation.
