Node-Based VFX
Harness the power of nodes within 3ds Max using a modern, integrated node editor.

NodeWorks

NodeWorks is a completely new node based multiphysics developed for FumeFX 6 release. It includes over 150 ready to use nodes arranged into 16 functional groups like GPU Liquids, Dynamics, FumeFX and Voxels, Fibers, PhysX, Splines, Shapes, Math to name a few.


Fast and efficient node based VFX tool integrated in 3ds max.

Built For Efficiency

The NodeWorks editor is designed with a focus on both ease of use and functionality. Node headers, along with particle group colors, minimize guesswork, making it easier to navigate complex setups. Users can display color-coded pins by data type, reassign connections with ease, and insert new nodes effortlessly. Comment nodes provide clear descriptions for any part of the flow, while full copy-and-paste support further streamlines the workflow.




Color Coded Pins by Data Type.

Color-Coded Pins

Node pins can be of various data types, so to avoid guesswork, all nodes can display color-coded pins according to the current data type. Once connected pins can easily be repositioned by a simple mouse drag.
Quick Liquid Presets for 3ds max.

Quick Presets

With just a few clicks, NodeWorks can transform your scene objects into rigid body dynamics, cloth, soft bodies, liquids, explosions, and more. It automatically generates all the necessary nodes, establishes connections, and assigns selected objects to the appropriate nodes, streamlining the entire setup process.
Multipurpose nodes for flexibility.

Multipurpose nodes

Nodes can adapt their functionality based on the connected input. For instance, the Spline Force node can accept either a position or particle as input, and it can also be applied to a voxel grid or PhysX PBD liquid, giving artists flexible control over their simulations.

Once your FumeFX 6 subscription expires you will be able to load and render caches but you cannot run simulation, acess or change any parameter inside the user interface. The same rules apply for FumeFX and NodeWorks while ISurf requires license for rendering.
Your FumeFX 5 perpetual license will be valid regardless of FumeFX 6 subscription and may continue to use it. However, FumeFX 5 is an obsolete version now and will not be updated.
We do offer educational license at $95 for one year subscription. It is available for high school or colledge students, staff members, schools and other educational or non-profit organisations. Contact us if you wish to order educational license. Volume discounts are available.
