What’s New

Experience high-performance visual effects and 3D animation tools in a more efficient workflow with powerful rendering, compositing, paint, and rigging capabilities that help you realize your creative vision. New features in Autodesk Softimage 2014 help you:

Maintain directorial control over your scenes with a new Camera Sequencer that lets you easily cut between multiple cameras, trim, reorder, and retime clips, and work nondestructively so the original animation data is unchanged.

Produce more realistic, sophisticated crowd simulations with a new enhanced CrowdFX crowd simulation feature. Work faster with large scenes and adjust characters’ behavior with greater ease, then export CrowdFX simulations to Autodesk® Maya® 2014 software for integration into existing scenes.

Experience improved support for constraints and blend shapes with enhanced Autodesk® FBX® asset exchange technology support that helps you exchange data with Autodesk® Maya® 2014 software, Autodesk® 3ds Max® 2014 software, Autodesk® MotionBuilder® 2014 software.

Refine your 3D animation content more efficiently with a new High-Quality Viewport enhanced to provide a higher-fidelity interactive experience.

Experience more power and flexibility throughout the animation process with enhancements to ICE (Interactive Creative Environment). New capabilities help you to:

• Enjoy improved performance while interactively editing complex ICE trees.
