Particles, Simulations & Volumetrics

BLOW MINDS WITH PARTICLES, SIMULATIONS & VOLUMETRICS

Notch's next-generation, GPU-powered particle and simulation engine can simulate cloth, rope, and tens of millions of particles in real time.

Completely GPU-powered, the unified simulation systems in Notch can be combined with any other system in Notch for the ultimate creative playground.

SIMULATE IN REAL TIME

Set up, tweak and render your simulations in real time. Make adjustments as you go, and have more fun in the moment when you're creating.

GO BIG (OR TINY)

The Notch sparse multi-grid solvers take advantage of that immense computing power in modern GPUs to add detail and depth to your scene.

COMBINE EFFECTS

From FLIP to SPH, Notch has a deep library of emitters, affectors, & renderers that can be combined and chained for unlimited creative outcomes.

FEATURES

Play your way to exciting renders with Notch's GPU native simulation systems.

VOLUMETRICS

Generate and render vast volumes using Notch's easy-to-use volumetric tools that work across all available renderers.

PARTICLES FLUIDS SMOKE HYGIENE2 FIRE AND SMOKE 2

FIRE & SMOKE

Play with fire using the built in explosion and fire simulations, including realistic shading and rendering. Generate variations at the click of a button.

PARTICLES, FLUIDS & SMOKE_HYGIENE 3_FLUIDS AND PHYSICS

FLUIDS & WATER

Simulate fluids lightning speeds. Create realistic (or unrealistic!) flowing fluids using FLIP and SPH physics, and control them all in real time.

CLOTH & ROPE DYNAMICS

Simulate cloth with inflation and deflation, turn geometry and splines into dynamic ropes with self-collision and dynamics. All simulated on the GPU.

RIGID BODY DYNAMICS

Animate rigid body objects with realistic physical behavior, including gravity and collisions.

POINTS, LINES & TRAILS

Spawn particles and use their positions in 3D space to generate new patterns using lines or meshes that connect between them. Use distance or other variables to create fully dynamic scenes.

PARTICLES FLUIDS SMOKE HYGIENE 5 DETERMINISM AND CACHING

DETERMINISM & CACHING

Have real time simulations play back the same each time with the built-in determinisim setting, or cache it out to share to other programs.

ONE WORKFLOW FOR ALL OF YOUR IDEAS

Notch is the only tool that'll let you take a particle simulation you created for a video and repurpose it as a real-time simulation for an interactive installation—or vice versa.
