Autodesk Softimage 2012
Create sophisticated 3D character animation and visual effects in less time with Autodesk Softimage 2012.
Autodesk Softimage 2012 builds on the power and flexibility of the Interactive Creation Environment (ICE) platform to introduce new procedural modelling capability, innovative new creative toolsets and enhanced interoperability. The new version is more easily integrated into production pipelines, for easier workflows in today’s demanding television, game and film projects.
Features
- New tools for the creation of stereoscopic renderings
- Node-based Interactive Creative Environment (ICE) platform
- Complete facial animation toolset
- Interactive timeline for animation editing and playback
- Integrated workflows
Benefits
- Softimage uses the powerful ICE platform for creating and sharing custom tools, dynamic effects, advanced character rigs without the need to script a line of code.
- Manage extremely complex characters and scenes much more easily with GigaCore, a next-generation 3D engine that uses the power of 64-bit, multi-core CPU to easily render scenes with millions of polygons and thousands of animated objects.
- Games and visual effects studios can create life-like facial animation at incredible speeds, using Face Robot. It features automatic lip-syncing and lets you import full solved Face Robot heads into Maya, making it faster and simpler to create believable characters.
What's New
- Enhanced ICE technology introduces procedural modelling, so you can create geometry based on a set of rules, conditions, and parameters, and manage high levels of detail more easily.
- Added support for vector displacement maps means you can render complex high-resolution details with appendages, folds, undercuts, and bulges on low-resolution geometry.
- You can integrate Softimage 2012 into pipelines much easily with single-step interoperability workflow between Softimage 2012 and Maya 2012, 3ds Max 2012, and Mudbox 2012.
