Description
Fujiyama is a free and open-source ray-tracing renderer that is tailored for production image rendering with a focus on distribution. It features multi-threaded rendering that dynamically assigns tile rendering to each thread, enhancing efficiency. The rendering preview tool, fbview, allows users to monitor the progress of their rendering tasks. Additionally, region rendering significantly speeds up the distribution rendering pipeline, while the renderer employs tile-based rendering techniques. Among its capabilities are three distinct Volume Filling Procedures: the Pyroclastic clouds procedure, the Spline wisps procedure, and the Surface wisps procedure. It also supports on-demand reading of mipmaps, allowing for an unlimited variety of texture images. The pluggable shader DSO enables users to create shaders using C/C++, with subsurface scattering integrated directly into the shader framework. Bump mapping is facilitated by modifying normals based on mipmap images, and primitive groups allow multiple shaders to be assigned to a triangle mesh. Moreover, Fujiyama incorporates Gaussian and Box pixel filters that accommodate filter widths exceeding one pixel. Lastly, its adaptive grid pixel sampling subdivides pixels according to color thresholds, ensuring high-quality rendering results. Together, these features make Fujiyama a versatile and powerful tool for rendering needs.
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.
