* {! y( t" W- R2 M( U( ]Houdini是一款三维计算机图形软件，由加拿大Side Effects Software Inc.（简称SESI）公司开发，SESI公司由Kim Davidson和Greg Hermanovic创建于1987年。Houdini是在Prisms基础上重新开发而来，可运行于Linux, Windows, Mac OS等操作系统，是完全基于节点模式设计的产物，其结构、操作方式等和其它的三维软件有很大的差异。6 T& w1 n- z6 P

# Q2 h+ I2 v% I) D* K; V! P' TSide Effects Software, an industry leader in 3D animation and visual effects software, is proud to announce the immediate release of Houdini 12 which offers a wealth of new features and performance enhancements making it easier for CG artists to accomplish more and iterate faster.' w% I! g0 H1 p1 R

Performance2 n. T* N, g, I
Houdini 12 has been re-architected to be faster and more memory efficient. From a new geometry engine, to targeted optimizations to dynamics and rendering, to viewport enhancements, artists will be able to accomplish more and iterate faster with Houdini 12.

With Pyro FX 2, Fire and Smoke simulations look more realistic and are faster and easier to set up. The speed gains in Houdini 12 are significant allowing for more iterations. The ability to simulate using the GPU takes things to a whole new level and advances in volume rendering create an impressive final look.4 V( Z% ^: L& }3 ^0 `+ r

; I$ O- [8 Y9 W3 h1 i& u' iThe cloth solver in Houdini 12 is production-ready and capable of generating fast reliable clothing sims. Using a mathematically accurate sim model, the new solver handles difficult cases and provides point level control over all aspects of the sim. Character FX artists will want to take a look at this amazing new solver.
