Cebas volumeBreaker V1.0 SP2 For 3DsMax8 – 2010 32/64Bit

Cebas volumeBreaker V1.0 SP2 For 3DsMax 8 – 2010 32Bit & 64Bit

volumeBreaker is a volumetric geometry fracturing tool that will instantly create sub-geometry within any mesh – geometry that perfectly fits together and fills any given volume. With volumeBreaker Cebas brings a Hollywood quality destruction tool to 3ds MAX. volumeBreaker was developed in consultation with, and to meet the very exacting demands of, VFX artists working on multi-million dollar movies – because of this, volumeBreaker truly is a production proven tool.

Still image from Roland Emmerich’s movie “2012” courtesy of Uncharted Territory. volumeBreaker was used extensively by Uncharcterd Territory in the production of many of the destruction shots used in the film. Used with permission.

volumeBreaker can be applied to virtually any mesh you can create in 3ds MAX, including meshes that are ‘lazy’ and not a fully enclosed volume. volumeBreaker includes algorithms that intelligently attempt to compensate for any errors within the mesh; errors such as unwelded vertices and open edges that can be the result of sloppy modelling or due to importing from CAD software or other sources.

The sub-geometry that volumeBreaker creates are individual elements within the parent mesh, accessible by applying an Edit Poly or Edit Mesh modifier on top of volumeBreaker; allowing you to further modify and control the end result.

Anzovin The Face Machine for Maya 2010 (32/64Bit)

Posted by Users on 2010/03/03

Anzovin The Face Machine for Maya

The Face Machine is Anzovin Studio’s new auto-rigging tool for Maya, but instead of rigging bodies, it rigs faces! Like The Setup Machine, The Face Machine (or TFM) automatically installs a high-level facial setup and does intelligent point weighting

TFM supports both box controls and direct controls that allow the animator to simply grab the face and deform it into the exact expression desired. Since it’s based on direct deformation, rather then a set of pre-defined blend shapes, TFM rigs can produce any expression you can imagine with unparalleled ease. The Face Machine makes rigging a face fast and easy.

The Face Machine for Maya 2010, 2009, 2008, 8.5 x32Bit & x64Bit

Features

Fast Rigging

Like The Setup Machine, The Face Machine uses a simple ?face widget? to rig your character. Just fit it to your mesh and hit rig!

Intelligent Auto-Weighting

TFM?s intelligent weighting technology is capable of automatically recognizing the difference between an upper lip and a lower lip on most faces, cutting down manual weight cleanup time to a fraction of what?s needed for other influence-based face rigs.

Integrated Interface

A special schematic window, embedded in each TFM character, allows you to select facial controls with unparalleled ease.

Direct Control

Just grab your character?s face controls and start posing! The Face Machine eliminates clumsy blend shape sliders and puts you in control of your character?s expressions.

Custom Box Controls

With its simple box control creation interface, TFM makes multidimensional sliders a snap to create.

Pose Saving and Recall

TFM allows you to easily save a pose into the characters very own personal facial pose library, either locally for your own use or on a server for use by a team of animators. The library interface comes complete with thumbnails for easy pose referencing.

Auto Deformation Manipulation

The Face Machine’s rig gives you control over fine-tuning every aspect of your character’s face. Auto deformation values can be easily adjusted to allow for even MORE detailed control of your poses.
