Fumaris Brings GPU-Accelerated Smoke and Fire to Blender Without Leaving the Viewport

Fumaris, a $39 GPU-based simulation extension for Blender 5.1+, lets archviz artists bake smoke and fire effects in real time using NVIDIA Flow, eliminating the traditional export-to-external-simulator workflow.

UV Unfoldr brings Maya's UV workflow to 3ds Max

A new $39 plugin for 3ds Max 2022–2027 ports Maya's UV Editor interface—component modes, marking menus, and edge selection—directly into Max. Built on the native Unwrap UVW modifier with a 25% launch discount, it cuts repetitive UV work for archviz studios.

Substance 3D Painter 12.2: Paint Baking Cages Directly on Models

Substance 3D Painter 12.2 lets artists adjust baking cage distance per-pixel on the model itself, eliminating full-cage recalculations. New Order Independent Transparency also improves viewport preview of glass and transparent surfaces.

Veras 5.3 Adds Node-Based Workflows: Parametric Control Comes to AI Rendering

Veras 5.3 introduces NODES, a visual workflow builder now in Beta that lets users generate parametric geometry and bake it directly into Revit, Rhino, or SketchUp. The system shifts Veras from rendering-first to a full generative design platform with interactive design tools.

SketchUp's Real-Time Rendering Moment: Lumion View, AI Render, and the End of the Export Workflow

SketchUp 2025–2026 has added native PBR materials, AI image generation, and real-time rendering plugins like Lumion View, letting archviz artists produce photorealistic images without leaving the viewport. This collapses the traditional design-to-render pipeline.

Redshift 2027.0: 15% faster renders, Archicad support, and ray-traced glass
