Description

Enhance the performance of large or sluggish animated 3D geometry asset files, ensuring compatibility with widely-used software like Autodesk 3ds Max, Autodesk Maya, and The Foundry’s Nuke. Maintain uniform channel data across frames while eliminating redundant data throughout the animation timeline. This approach not only improves file loading times for animated scene geometry but also streamlines the workflow. With AWS Thinkbox XMesh, file uploads for extensive animated geometry assets are significantly expedited, leading to a more efficient production process. By optimizing these assets, creators can focus more on their artistic vision rather than technical limitations.

Description

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.
