A New Cloth Dynamics Plugin for 3DS Max
Check out a brand-new powerful tool called Dynamo.
Deform Dynamics released Dynamo, their new GPU accelerated cloth dynamics plugin for 3ds Max. The team states that the plugin offers 10-100x faster performance compared to the 3ds Max's built-in cloth modifier.
This modifier-based tool provides real-time performance and an interactive design process. The release version supports stretching, bending stiffness, pressure, soft bodies, and wind forces providing the ability to animate different properties. You can add or remove pins interactively. When it comes to creating clothing and other multi-panel designs, you can use seams.
What is more, you can disable physical forces like gravity and use Dynamo’s real-time interactive mode to sculpt cloth shapes. There's a subdivision mode for smoothing simulated cloth.
Dynamo would cost you €99 but there's also a 30-day trial available. The team is also working on Unity and Unreal versions. Learn more here.
