Creation Platform from Fabric Engine enables the development of customised tools for the pipeline. Creation Real-Time Rendering is intended to provide real-time rendering in Maya for applications such as previs.
To demonstrate the performance of the integrated Maya tool, Fabric Engine uses a scene with 80 lights and four area lights including soft shadows in its demo video, yet Creation RTR is said to achieve 47 frames per second in the preview on a laptop. The company will reveal more about Creation RTR at the upcoming Siggraph 2013:
Creation: Platform – Real-Time Rendering in Maya from Fabric Engine on Vimeo.
A version for 3ds Max is also intended to be developed soon. An Interactive licence for Creation Platform for running desktop applications is available for 1,000 dollars per workstation, while a Non-Interactive licence for render nodes and command-line tools costs 500 dollars.
All further pricing models can be found here.
