GeoControl 2.1 Build 53 Win/Mac

GeoControl 2.1 Build 53 Win/Mac


The revolutionary concept of GeoControl2 opens up totally new dimensions of creating virtual landscapes.
The unique combination of more artistic tools and semi-scientific algorithms makes it possible to create realistic, breathtaking landsapes, based on conceptual layouts or on fantasie.
The creative tool “isolines” is completly selfdeveloped and offers the first time the opportunity, to creatively control the form of the landscape.
The interventions are none destructive, layerbased and you can allways, also afterwards, readjust, switch off or change an isoline or layer.

The artistic “shape” filters give the landscapes a typical structure, like round hills or ridged mountains.
The semi-scientific erosion algorithms turn these outlines into fantastic realistic and so believable landscapes.
Beside that flows, rivers or even river networks can be added to the terrain. The algorithm is unique, extrem fast and satisfies even scientific requierements.

But landscapes are not only defined by nature. The human factor also is a very important element. The “vector” tool “simulates” this part of a landscape. You can use it to integrate roads, urban areas or even controled rivers.

Pulldownit Pro Ver 1.7 for MAYA 2009-2012 32Bit/64Bit

What is Pulldownit?
Pulldownit! is a brand new dynamics solver which allows for the creation of fractures as well as massive rigid bodies simulations.
By using its technology digital artists are able to simulate fast and easily scenes made of thousands of objects and collapse buildings, bridges or any kind of brittle material.

Fast, accurate rigid bodies solver
The rigid body solver inside Pdi! is extremely fast and designed to handle massive scenes, that means thousands of objects in contact. its core is mathematically probed to conserve energy and it computes physically correct friction; all these issues together guarantee stable, accurate simulations, not objects flying away anymore!

Shatter It!, Voronoi-based pre-cutting
Shatter It! is the new pre-cutting tool of Pulldownit, it is Voronoi-based because this scheme has showed to be the best mathematical pattern for brittle fracture. Its technology allows to pre-cut a 3D model in hundred of shards in seconds, in addition the fragments generated plug easily in the Pulldownit solver to perform simulation in a fast and reliable way.

Fracture capabilities
The technology of fracture inside Pdi! is absolutely new and groundbreaking. It allows breaking apart any kind of brittle material like stone, glass or stucco. By using it digital artist are able to simulate the collapse of structures or terrain cracking in minutes. Not the least its easy setup and powerful stress tools allow for control in the creation of cracks and drive the simulation to the desired end.

Animation friendly
Pdi! is integrated in the most popular 3D packages, It catches the geometry from the viewports and computes the final result as animation keys, It allows to reset the simulation and start again as many as needed also tweaking parameters and resume simulation at any frame, in addition animated objects and characters are able to interact with the simulated ones.

FXPHD VRY101 Introduction to V-Ray

Posted by Users on 2011/05/26
Posted in: CG Releases, Downloads, Learning, Plugins, Softwares, Tutorials, Videos. Tagged: , , .
 

This course, taught by Daniel Buck, runs through the basics of V-Ray, from lights, to shaders, to render settings and a few optimization tips. Buck’s professional career has been vehicle related, so the course will focus more on vehicle related things than other things, since that’s his specialty. He will, however, present basic principals so that the knowledge gained applies to other things, not just purely vehicle related issues.

Buck will assume that course participants have at least basic knowledge of Maya, and preferably some knowledge of lighting and shaders in general. No advanced knowledge of any other rendering software is necessary, but for those that do, Buck will go through a few areas where V-Ray differs from other rendering software. He will be using Maya during the term, but operations are very similar between 3dsMax and Maya. It renders identically, and all the options and settings are very similar…the differences are in how you apply properties and find the settings.

The course will focus on the creation and manipulation of lights and shaders, as well as some basic V-Ray settings. It won’t get into to much of the technical nuts and bolts of V-Ray, just giving practical approaches to using the renderer. Ultimately the content will involve setting up a scene where we are creating shaders and lighting for a vehicle. Global illumination will not be covered very much in this lesson, as the main focus will be lights and shaders, as well as touching on basic render settings.

 

Class 1: Intro to Vray. I’ll give a bit of information on Vray, go through the basic Vray settings, and we’ll get ourselves familiar with how Vray is setup. 

Class 2: Working with lights. We’ll look at the basic vray lights, their main settings, and where they function best.? Sphere light, rectangle light, and dome light. 

Class 3: A closer look at lights in Vray, how to use HDR files and flat texture files into dome and rectangle lights, a quick look at IES lights and the sun & sky system in Vray. Lastly, a look at the cutoff threshold of the lights, as a way to optimize the calculation of the lights. 

Class 4: Basic VRay Shader overview, looking at the VRayMtl. Spending most of the time on reflection/refraction (as this is a big part of the VRayMtl), and how VRay handles specular highlights and various aspects of reflections/refractions. Also a quick look at how to control reflections by using maps to break up reflection strength and glossiness. 

Class 5: A look at the VRayBlendMtl, and a few ways of blending shaders together to create more complex shaders, we’ll look at creating a car paint shader, as well as blending to create a few other types of looks, and then finally a bit of optimizing on the shaders reflection tracing, and how far it can actually be taken. 

Class 6: Additional vray shaders. We’ll look at some of the other vray shaders and textures, such as the the vray dirt, light Mtl, and the fastSSS2 shader. 

Class 7: Looking at utilities in VRay, including object properties, subdivision, displacement, as well as multi-matte and extra tex render elements. Ways to provide mattes and utility textures for compositing. 

Class 8: Shaders for vehicle project. For this lesson, we’ll start creating some of the main shaders for our vehicle project.? We’ll look at rubbers, plastics, glass, chrome, and car paint. 

Class 9: General car/model geometry setup for rendering, things to avoid and how to fix them. Making sure glass objects have proper geometry thickness, and making sure normals are facing the correct direction. Quickly touching on using imbedded matte channels through refractions. 

Class 10: Final vehicle project lighting and shaders setup. Here we’ll be doing final tweaks to our lighting and shaders for a better look, as well as running through a few ways to optimize the render settings, lights, and shaders.
