In essence, the plugin ensures that only the parts of the textures that are seen in the final render are loaded into memory. To achieve this, they have a very simple solution, one that I remember learning about back during my undergrad at university. That being said, if you’re in the market for a solution to using very large textures in Lightwave 3D then this is worth a look. Image credit (as supplied by PR): Deep Rising FX

If you want to take full advantage of this plugin you’ll want a good GPU as that is where the simulators calculations are carried out. One of the great features about this plugin that you would expect when creating fluid simulations is that you can easily add bubbles, foam and spray and along with that add in realistic motion blur.
This ease of use is actually one of their selling points and they’ve definitely achieved that. When you hear the words ‘particle system’ you might think that sounds terribly complex but with Deep Rising FX you’ll be surprised at how simply amazing fluid effects can be made. This plugin, at its core, is a particle system and therefore gives users the ability to make realistic fluid simulations. Having tried this plugin, you’ll never want to go back. They have also added transformations for stretch and size. You can also easily adjust the amount of smoothing that is given to a welded part. You can join meshes together with the resulting mesh being super clean. Not only does it give you a range of extra modeling tools but it also produces some brilliant results, all the while keeping the mesh detail under control and flowing well. With this one you can weld and hollow out your objects – all interactively within the viewport.
Up next is another plugin to help you with your modeling. All of these deformations can also be animated enabling you to really bring your objects to life in a simple way. This is done by grabbing, stretching, rotating and distorting the lattice. Rather than having to undo all your hard work you can simply apply this Lattice Deformer to your object and then distort and adjust your model based on a much smaller set of points. If it’s a person then maybe the forehead is just a bit too big or the shoulders are not broad enough. You then realize that you’d like to make some high level, global changes to the model. It’s super detailed and has a lot of intricacies. I love this plugin! There are times when you’ve created a really nice model.

Examples that are listed on their website include: “An ornament is placed at the location you expect. This will be a welcome tool for any artists from a traditional and less technical background as it’ll suit the workflows you’re already used to. They all work when mesh editing and as detailed in the documentation include “translating, rotating, grabbing, sliding, smoothing, pushing in, pulling out, drawing, cutting, extending, and so on.” The idea behind the plugin is to provide artists with tools that make the modeling process much more natural and organic.
This plugin extends the built-in modelling tools in Lightwave 3D by providing an extra set of 14 modeling tools.

You can also set panels to be nestable and to automatically readjust. If you like a more minimalist feel to your interface then you can go for transparent panels and a borderless interface. Along with this positioning functionality LW_UI+ gives you a number of other user interface customizations. The window positions are stored in a simple txt file and the positions are recalled using a simple keyboard shortcut.

This handy little plugin lets Lightwave 3D users save the positions of their Lightwave windows and recall those positions at any time.

It can handle several characters but will slow down your scrubbing (not playback) when using the timeline. This plugin gives you all the tools you need to manage these kinematics. This all refers to the articulation of joints and the automatic calculations of those joints to achieve a desired pose. The IKFK describes the type of plugin it is with the ‘IK’ standing for ‘Inverse Kinematics’ and the ‘FK’ for ‘Forward Kinematics. The name of this plugin is a bit of a mouthful but don’t let that put you off! The ‘AH’ stands for Alex Hartley who created the plugin.
