Ziva Dynamics Ziva VFX 1.7 下载

Ziva Dynamics Ziva VFX is a cutting-edge muscle and skin simulation software that enables you to rapidly generate realistic biological muscle and skeletal models. It is particularly well-suited for creating clinical anatomical models. In the past, creating high-fidelity dynamic characters was a time-consuming process. However, with Ziva VFX, artists can now achieve realistic results much faster.

One of the notable features of Ziva VFX 1.7 is its new animation effects. Although these effects are more pronounced on creatures with significant fat or mass, the detailed physics-based effects of muscle activation and subcutaneous tissue vibrations can enhance the natural appearance of 3D characters or creatures in films, television, or virtual content. Artists can easily access these powerful algorithms through a dropdown menu to specify the decay method of the animation effects. Each setting can be adjusted and applied to pre-made creatures, allowing for simple re-simulations that immediately improve the visual outcome.

Software Highlights

Material Variety: Ziva VFX utilizes a wide range of material types to produce realistic motion, including StVK, NeoHookean, and co-rotational materials, with various collision responses.

Rigid and Elastic Bodies: The software supports both rigid and elastic solid bodies, transitioning seamlessly from rigid to elastic for external animation triangles, facilitating immediate secondary motion.

Brushing: Artists can easily paint attributes like adhesion areas, muscle fibers, muscle forces, and quad mesh resolutions.

Caching: Simulation cache files can be stored in RAM or on the hard drive for quick review and/or restarts.

Scripting: Ziva VFX allows for scripting and pipeline management using Maya MEL or the open-source Python tools provided by Ziva Dynamics.

Mesh Insertion: Arbitrary triangle meshes can be embedded into the simulation.

Muscle Activation: Muscles can be activated using scripts to trigger contraction and relaxation.

Volume Preservation: Ziva VFX maintains high precision volume even under large deformations.

Damping: The software offers various types of physical damping.

Shell Components: It simulates the thin shells of skin and muscle fascia, automatically wrapping around internal objects.

Constraints: Physical constraints can be added between targets, and their attachment points can be painted.

How to Use Ziva VFX

To get started with Ziva VFX, follow these steps:

Setup: Import your character or creature model into Ziva VFX.

Material Assignment: Assign the appropriate materials to different parts of your model for realistic motion.

Collision Detection: Set up collision detection to ensure accurate interaction between objects.

Simulation Settings: Configure simulation settings, such as gravity, time scale, and solver parameters.

Animation Effects: Use the dropdown menu to apply animation effects and adjust settings like decay methods.

Caching: Cache the simulation for fast playback and editing.

Rendering: Export the simulation data for rendering in your preferred 3D software.

By leveraging Ziva VFX's advanced features and intuitive workflow, artists can create lifelike animations with ease, pushing the boundaries of realism in visual effects.
