plug-in available for your application, you can still make use of Studio by importing a scene

or geometry, and making further adjustments to your materials/ cameras/ lights. Or you

can merge different .MXS les together into one scene.

3.03 Maxwell Fire: Fast Interactive Rendering

Maxwell Fire is an interactive tool which provides instant results while setting up a scene.

You can preview scene lighting and materials in seconds. And more importantly, Maxwell

Fire is:

• Compatible with all Maxwell Render materials and features

• A truly interactive workow: integrated in plug-ins and Maxwell Studio

• Entirely CPU based: no additional hardware required

• No extra cost: it is not a separate add-on application, and is a free update for Maxwell

Render 2.x clients.

The rst roll-out of Maxwell Fire is in Maxwell Studio, and in certain plug-ins: currently

Maya, 3dS Max and Rhinoceros. Other plug-ins will see the addition of Maxwell Fire in the

near future, subject to SDK limitations.

Maxwell Fire represents a new and innovative solution to improve the workow and

interaction between user and render output at both pre- and post-processing stages.

Preview scene lighting and materials in seconds

Maxwell Fire is an interactive preview tool that will signicantly speed-up your workow by

allowing you to see scene changes instantly through a oating window inside your normal

user interface.

Instead of constantly doing test renders and moving your camera or objects to check

where emitter reections fall on a surface or see how the bumps and color look in your

scene, with Maxwell Fire you can get real-time feedback when editing a material or moving

your camera and/or objects in the scene.

Compatible with all Maxwell Render materials and features

Maxwell Fire is not a separate product: it is a workow enabler inside Maxwell Render

which has full compatibility of materials and objects, and with the nal high quality

Maxwell Render engine.

Our goal when creating Maxwell Fire was not to cripple your workow by forcing you

to abandon certain material types and features if you want to instantly preview your

scenes. Rather, Maxwell Fire supports all Maxwell Render materials (including subsurface

scattering, displacement, complex IOR, emitters) and all Maxwell Render features

(including instances, depth of eld, motion blur, RealFlow Renderkit).

Truly interactive workow

Maxwell Fire is a truly interactive workow, available in both standalone Maxwell Studio,

and integrated in plug-ins for those that wish to continue to work inside their host 3D

application (currently Maya, 3DSMax and Rhinoceros, but the rest will come in the the

following months).

Another major advantage of Maxwell Fire over other interactive rendering solutions is

that you can manipulate the geometry in your scenes. We realize most users wish to

change/translate the scene geometry often, or move an emitter to change the lighting

etc. With Maxwell Fire integrated into Maxwell Studio and plug-ins, you can work within

a familiar environment and instantly see any changes you make not only to the camera

and materials, but also the scene geometry. There is no need to re-export/re-import your

scene every time your geometry changes, which could hardly be called an interactive

workow.

Entirely CPU based

Instead of using GPU based algorithms, which force you to buy expensive graphics cards

to achieve the desired results, Maxwell Fire is CPU based, and no special hardware is

needed.

Maxwell Fire does not require you to purchase additional or specic hardware to get

maximum performance. Maxwell Fire works on standard CPUs within your existing

machine; it does not require specic hardware or GPU technology.

While GPU hardware has become more capable of handling some of the calculations a

complex render engine requires, they are still not ready to efciently accommodate all

physically accurate Maxwell Render features.

No extra cost

Maxwell Fire is included for free in Maxwell Render. It is not a separate application and it
