Glu3D is a complete plug-in system that makes easy making fluids in Alias Maya� software. With Glu3D you can create a wide range of realistic fluids. From any kind of liquid like water or wine to blood, gel, mud, honey, lava, cement, ... any fluid solution is possible with Glu3D.

Our philosophy is to integrate powerful software design and ease-of-use into our plug-ins so that as an artist, you can get what you want quickly instead losing your time and patience fighting with the tools. Always have in mind that out goal is to make the best possible quality 3D software, and to be successful we need your feedback. Please feel free to post questions, bug reports and suggestions for improvements on our discussion forum or email us at [email protected]. It is your chance to take part in the making of a great product that fit your needs.

We are waiting for your initiative!

Glu3D is designed to work tightly integrated inside the Maya� standard interface. Glu3D uses particles to simulate the fluid behavior, and a multi-resolution polygonal surface is also generated to display the fluid surface. Its main features are:

- Particle based dynamic engine that automatically animates liquids that interact with surrounding geometry
- Triangle mesh surface sequence is generated to visualize liquid surface
- Fully integrated in Maya environment in order to simplify production workflow
- File cache system to store pre-calculated dynamics results
- Object instances at every particle position
- A Surface Mesh generator for any kind of particle system (not only glu3D).
- Motion blur
- Fill objects function to speed up scene initial condition setup
