Whether you're creating cinematic explosions, detailed liquid pours, or atmospheric smoke effects, Phoenix FD 3.13 delivers artifact-free results with seamless integration into 3ds Max and V-Ray rendering.


Advanced Control Tools
New Morphing Tools with Attraction Forces direct fluids precisely. Animation Loop enables seamless looping of simulations, ideal for cycles.
Direct RGB Color Settings allow easy mixing of colors in smoke and liquid renders for artistic control.
Liquid and Particle Enhancements
Export PRT files for foam, splash, and drag particles. Import Field3D and OpenVDB files, then render with Phoenix volume shaders for interoperability.


Explosive Simulations
Create dynamic explosions with refined fire and smoke solvers for realistic blasts.

Improved User Interface and Workflow
The updated UI streamlines your simulation setup. Key highlights include:
- Phoenix FD Properties Menu: Right-click access to per-object overrides for quick tweaks without digging through panels.
- Direct RGB Color Settings: Easily mix and control colors directly in smoke and liquid simulations for precise artistic direction.
- Morphing Tools with Attraction Forces: New forces let you guide fluid direction intuitively, perfect for art-directing complex scenes.
These changes reduce setup time and give you more control over every aspect of your simulation.
Enhanced Rendering and Illumination
Rendering millions of particles just got better and faster:
- Grid-based Self Illumination: Delivers fast, artifact-free lighting in volumes – ideal for glowing fire or emissive smoke.
- Improved Point Shader: Now supports Light Cache, enabling high-quality renders of massive particle counts like foam or splashes without slowdowns.
Artists working on large-scale effects will see significant performance gains.
Advanced Simulation Controls
- Animation Loop: Seamlessly loop simulation sequences for endless cycles, great for background elements or game assets.
- External File Formats: Export PRT files for foam, splash, and drag particles. Import Field3D and OpenVDB volumes and render them directly with Phoenix shaders.
These features expand compatibility and make iterating on simulations more efficient.
