Description :
SideFX Houdini FX is a large software product for creating three-dimensional scenes and models.
This program is an environment for visual programming, thanks to which you can create amazing and unique three-dimensional graphics.
The development is used in the creation of games, models of objects, commercials and other content that contains three-dimensional graphics.
Houdini was built from the ground up as a procedural system that allows artists to work freely, create multiple iterations, and quickly share workflows with colleagues. Flexible Node-Based Workflow
In Houdini, every action is stored in a node. These nodes are then “plugged” into networks that define a “recipe” that can be tweaked to refine the result, and then repeated to create similar but unique results.
The ability of nodes to store and pass information down the chain as attributes is what gives Houdini its procedural nature.
New features and improvements :
The release also includes significant changes to Houdini’s KineFX character rigging system and APEX Animate, as well as a new MPM solver for multiphysics simulation.
There are also updates to 3D modeling and asset development, the Solaris Look Dev toolset and Karma renderer, machine learning capabilities, and SideFX Labs tools.
By far the biggest new feature in Houdini 20.5 is Copernicus, a new GPU-accelerated 2D and 3D image processing environment.
And for nonlinear animation, Houdini 20.5 introduces a new animation layer system.
And much more.
