Adquire Shatter makes possible to transfer shatter effects and animation to another version of the same asset, for example if your studio eventually decides to change the textures of the model you can reuse your current effect seamlessly. In latest version, we have added some relevant features for production. In fact, our users says Pulldownit makes it simple compare to what you need a Master degree in Physics and Programming using other tools. The dynamics solver build a fracture object based in the shape of the shards generated, optimizing speed of computation and detecting different fracture areas to generate cracks and debris, so you can get perfect fracture results very quickly. You can use these tools independently, but its major advantages comes when using both together. Pulldownit from Thinkinetic combines an accurate shatter tool and a fast and stable dynamics solver. The built-in dynamics tools of these platforms wasn’t able and still aren’t to compute realistic fracture effects, so if you want to do create massive destruction, you need a specific plugin like Pulldownit.
The 3D dynamics plugin is currently integrated inside Autodesk 3ds Max and Maya. Pulldownit plugin appeared in 2009 to allow artists to destroy CG models easily, from statues to large structures. You can reset the scene, make changes, save different takes of the same effect and choose the one you prefer even one single person can achieve realistic destruction effects if he/she counts with the correct tools and knowledge. All using exclusively CG models and computer tools. It was a tremendous task with hundreds of people involved and only one chance to do it because once the structure has blowing up, you cannot “reset” and start again.Ĭomputer hardware and software has evolved drastically and today you can see quality destruction effects in movies, TV series and even commercials. At that time they used to build scale models of buildings to destroy them and film it. Hi Amit, 20 years ago making believable destruction effects was only possible for large studios using models. What was the need of exclusive Dynamics plugin like Pulldownit? We thanks Jose Garcia Freire, Thinkinetic Sales & Marketing for arranging this exclusive interview. By using its Dynamics technology, digital artists are able to simulate fast and easily the collapse of buildings, cracking surfaces or fracturing any kind of brittle material. Pulldownit is a destruction tool integrated in Autodesk 3ds Max and Maya.
