01/August/2006 - Sitni Sati d.o.o., a developer of AfterBurn, DreamScape and ScatterVL Pro, announces the development of a new fluid dynamics plugin for 3ds max
The new product is named FumeFX and is intended for realistic simulation of fire and smoke and their interaction with scene. Fire and smoke are physically based, with gravity, temperature, pressure, objects, velocities and external forces influencing their behavior.

Looks promising.
looks cool…maybe this one will be released sometime.
id love to know a bit more like what their simulation times are and the render time per frame. im going to assume they let AB render what their plugin has calculated
would it be possible that this IS aura with a new name and distributor?
Meaning they bought it out from Chaos? I think we would have heard of it before this?
hmmmmm looks interesting.
The fire animation looks exactly like an old aura animation.
FumeFX is definitely not Aura. the chaos guys are supposed to be showing Aura at a vray user event on Friday along with an image sequencer.
To bad they didn’t announce the vray user event until about a week prior to siggraph. I would have liked to attend but had already made my travel plans.

Nope, it is not.

thats the best news i have heard in a long time!
I was going to start a thread to ask what happened with aura the other week, it looked quite nice.
Nice to hear some fluid based fire is coming out for me to be amazed by and have no reason to buy though :lol:
