![]() ![]() However, mid 2017 the SOuP team became a commercial business and the previously freeware tools are now behind a paywall.īefore I go any further, let me say this: The work that Peter and Evgeny have done making tools that allow Maya to better publicly compete with applications like Houdini has been phenomenal for both studios and individuals alike. Evgeny, aka besha (my apologies for the lack of a last name), has been freely supplying the toolkit for multiple Maya versions on Windows and Linux. Unfortunately, Autodesk has yet to implement core support for the library in Maya which is widely used as a core pipeline application.įor the past several years Maya users have enjoyed free support of the OpenVDB toolkit from the team over at SOuP. SideFX has adopted the library, making it a core component of Houdini and every major rendering engine have added support. Since its release, OpenVDB has become the industry standard in DCC applications and rendering engines for representing volumetric data and even used for procedural modeling. OpenVDB by Dreamworks Animation is an incredibly powerful library along with some extremely useful toolkits.
