Fusion is a new plugin for parametric modelling of repetitive geometry with varying complexity. You can effortlessly create and modify such objects as stucco mouldings, fences, bridges, etc., and almost any geometry can be distributed along a path and/or fused together to create an intricate continuous complex object. When the work is done, save your model blanks in the library so you can reuse them later in other projects. The plugin makes it very easy for you to control the size and count of your objects, the distance between them, and the way they are distributed. You can also animate most parameters and thus add life to the process of building objects. Fusion is a handy plugin with a simple interface, designed to simplify the process of building complex models by using parametric modeling, making your designs more versatile and giving you the opportunity to enjoy the creative process more.

Fusion is available for Max 2014 to 2022 and will cost $60. At the moment you can buy a pre-release version at a 20% discount of $48. A demo version is available here.

Changes for v1.28 are:
- Adds an 8th layer
- Some UI / usability fixes and improvements
- Some icons adjusted for future VNT version(s)
- No more material slots in use
- Now using a single material scene only to preview layers colors
- Fixes the broken backwards compatibility with old VNT setups
- Moves vnt.ini from #plugCFG to vnt install directory: getDir #userScripts + '\\vnt\vnt.ini'

Vertex Normal Toolkit is available for Max 2012 to 2022 and costs $30.

VdbRemesh is a C++ multi-threaded, OpenVDB-based modifier plugin for remeshing. It comes with a procedural filter stack that has 10 filters ready to be applied in any order. Since it is a volume based modifier, it works very differently to the traditional surface modifiers. As it is a procedural modifier, you can also add more than one VdbRemesh to an object with different settings. If the adaptivity settings are set to zero, it will only produce quads.

Uses could include smoothing the edges of hard surface cad models, post-processing 3D scans for removing unwanted holes or smoothing out the surface, generating a smooth high poly model from a low-poly model, generating a nice proxy mesh for a high poly model, generating a clean low-poly mesh for a bake operation, generating closed 3D printable meshes from regular surface meshes, exploring new 3D forms without the restriction of topology, making the surface topology uniform ready for a sculpt or a simulation, and much more.

VdbRemesh is available for Max 2017 to 2022 and costs $49.

I have recompiled the final load of plugins for Max 2022. As always, if anything doesn't work as expected, let me know and I'll see if I can fix it.

I've recompiled the Felix Joleanes plugins Animatable Pivot v1.0.6 and IKFK Solver v1.1.5b for Max 2022. I haven't been able to test them, so I hope they work properly. Let me know if they don't!

cebas Visual Technology Inc. has just announced a free public beta for finalFluid, their new realtime fire and smoke simulation plugin for Max.

finalFluid is an NVIDIA GPU only based dynamic Eulerian fluid simulation system, used to create advanced smoke and fire effects, leveraging a Sparse Voxel Grid within an unbounded simulation domain. finalFluid's solver allocates simulation blocks in a dynamic way, so it uses only memory in active/resident regions of interest, meaning no memory is wasted in regions where nothing happens at all. Find out more on the Cebas website.

For all the details on how to sign up for the Beta, head over to this Cebas page.
