V-Ray for Blender is a project of V-Ray integration to Blender combining V-Ray’s flexibility and unprecedented speed with one of the world's most famous open source 3D applications. V-Ray for Blender is implemented as an exporter that outputs Blender scenes, models and animations into a .vrscene file format which can be rendered in V-Ray Standalone. We’ve created a dedicated forum for all V-Ray for Blender users. Join the conversation and contribute to the V-Ray for Blender community with your questions and tips!

Pdplayer is a professional image sequence player and viewer for the 3D, CG and VFX industry, created by Asynthetic and distributed by Chaos Software. It supports most industry standard file formats including EXR, HDR, DPX, CIN, R3D, TGA, SGI, IFF, PIC and VRIMG. Multiple layers can be color-corrected and composed together in real time. Pdplayer is feature rich, fast and lightweight. It starts quickly and flips through frames with ease.

Phoenix FD™ for Autodesk® Maya® empowers VFX artists to simulate fire, smoke, explosions, liquids, foam and splashes, while offering exceptional flexibility and speed. It is a hybrid simulation system including grids and particles, enabling you to get the best of both worlds. Fully integrated with V-Ray, it harnesses the power of Chaos Group’s rendering engine including proper GI from the generated fluid. V-Ray RT supports all Phoenix FD fluids, including liquids with proper refraction. Phoenix FD for Maya is optimized for huge amounts of particles allowing VFX artists to work on complex simulations. 

Phoenix  FD™ for 3ds Max is  a  powerful  tool  for  fluid  simulations.  Aimed  to  meet  the needs  of  VFX  artist  to  simulate  fire,  smoke,  explosions  as  well  as  liquids, foam  and  splashes,  it  has  now  become  universal  simulation  software  for every production house. Phoenix FD offers exceptional flexibility and speed. With  an  adaptive  grid,  complete  interactivity,  a  GPU  accelerated  preview and  a  fully  multi-threaded  displacement  algorithm  it  stands  out  as  one  of the top solutions for fluid simulations in the visual effects industry.
