ShaderFX FREE edition
polycounter lvl 9
As of today,
ShaderFX is FREE for all individuals and companies smaller then 2 employees.
Including free for commercial use.
(This version has the exact same features as the commercial edition, minus a small watermark)
You can download version 3.12 to update to this version at:
http://www.lumonix.net/shaderfx.html
Those who have purchased the educational version in the past, will automatically convert to having the full commercial edition simply by installing the new version.
Companies larger then 2 employees are still required to buy a commercial license.
Enjoy!

thank you!
I'm sure if your company is successful, you'll have no problem supporting us by buying a license.
Until that time, enjoy the free edition!
puppetshop and shaderFX ftw
Thanks a bunch!
Thankyous!
Thanks Guys
great news!
i wonder how many people will use it for DW4. especially those who havent bought a game that comes with one of the latest engines etc
You can download 3.15 (from the same location you downloaded before) and that should fix it.
Sorry about that.
this is great, i hope some companies are taking notes.
all kidding aside, we will probably pick up a few licenses here at insomniac if i can get them to get the Max licenses so we can use it.
how convenient :shifty:
I haven't really given this a go yet, but I'm definitely going to check this out now despite my technical ineptitude.
You can use convolved HDRI environment maps (cube maps).
Anything else specific you are looking for?
I often seen HDR used in combination with Bloom for example to simulate the effect better on a monitor.
We don't specifically provide Bloom functionality, but 3dsMax already ships with a Bloom Scene Effect you could tap into.
Now if I can just figure out how to create the shader I want... :P
Thanks again!
I'm working on the third one now, but I don't have a lot of free time, so it might be a little while before it comes out. However, now that ShaderFX version 3 is done, I'll be able to use the free time that I used to be using for that on the DVD instead. So yeah, can't really give a good answer on that one - but I'm doing my best!
Its so much like unreal shaders
Take care,
