About AWS Thinkbox Stoke
Create particle simulations faster for Autodesk 3ds Max compared to competing fluid dynamics plugins. Allow artists without programming or scripting experience to easily use an extensible procedural geometry modifier. Give users access to artist-friendly channel-editing workflows similar to node-based image-compositing applications. Access-optimized geometry and particle lookup operations are not available in the Autodesk 3ds Max SDK. AWS Thinkbox Stoke simplifies and accelerates the creation of high-volume particle clouds. Enable formats, such as PRT and RealFlow BIN, and simulations from FumeFX, Particle Flow, cebas thinkingParticles, and 3ds Max Force Space Warps. Create and simulate new fields, including velocity fields, and the loading and saving of field data using industry-standard formats. Combine field data with 3ds Max subsystems, such as Particle Flow, MassFX, Hair and Fur, Materials, most renderers, and other systems.

Trapcode Suite
Trapcode Suite brings the power of 3D particle systems right into After Effects. Use particle emitters to create fire, water, smoke, snow and other organic visual effects, or create technological marvels and user interfaces with immortal particle grids, text and 3D forms. Combine multiple particle systems into one unified 3D space and design emitters that emit full emitters for creating visually stunning results. With GPU acceleration, Trapcode plugins help you get beautiful results fast. Trapcode Suite includes a physics engine with powerful behaviors, forces and environmental controls. Particular brings particles to life with new flocking/swarming and predator/prey behaviors, and adds more realism with combined bounce and air physics. Particular and form both include the ability to create organic fluid simulations where particle systems interact with beautiful results.

CentiLeo
Fast and easy to use GPU path tracer. CentiLeo is a fast GPU renderer integrated with 3ds Max and Cinema 4D supporting GPU VRAM software extension and with high efficiency for scenes with complex lighting. For 3ds Max and Cinema 4DCentiLeo is an offline GPU renderer with very fast unbiased path tracing for complex lighting. It supports huge scene assets with GPU-accelerated out-of-core technology that effectively renders the polygon counts, particles and textures that may not fit entirely to GPU memory. This feature extends GPU memory limits for geometry/particles by 4x and for texture memory limits by 100x. CentiLeo supports Interactive Preview Render, node-based material & shader editing, displacement mapping, motion blur, subsurface scattering, fast noise reduction for multi-materials, glass objects and mesh lights. CentiLeo is supported by Skolkovo Foundation, some of software R&D results were supported by Skolkovo grants.
