Toxik Forum

[nanuk]

Hi everybody out there.

What do you think about a Toxik Forum right here on fxguide. I think, i would be great! I had the chance to test it a couple of weeks ago. And i think it is a nice peace of software, not really comleted jet but NICE. I like the workflow. But it is difficult to get other information or experience. So what do you think?

fxguide is really great and i think it would be even greater with a toxik forum 😀

I just asked our reseller to get a testversion and he gave one to me. He also now offers some training, but I´m in Germany not in Australia. Perhaps you can get some training from one of your resellers.

I’ve just tried contacting a reseller here,
According to them there is no test version of Toxik.
Also there is no training for it anywhere in Australia…..great…:(

The basic overview information is on their website:

http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?id=5561949&siteID=123112

There are several things that I think are notable.

#1, toxik’s architecture was designed with the capabilities of modern hardware in mind — powerful gpu, relatively (to 5-10 years back) lots of fast disk and ram available, multiple cpus. Most of the mature applications in its range out there today were architected before there was any such thing as the gpu power we now have and when systems were constrained with much more limited bandwidth and ram/disk resources. A software developer has to make tradeoffs based on these things and the “right” decisions years back are not necessarily the right ones for the systems we have today.

#2, the image processing pipe was designed from the ground up for a floating point linear color space pipeline.

And #3, is that the workflow was designed with collaboration in mind. The collaboration aspects are not something we are used to seeing in commercial products, although larger studios have been building these sorts of tools for some time in-house as pipeline tools and plugins for commercial apps in order to make their workflow more efficient. I think it may be a while yet before the capabilities in this area really get understood and exploited effectively in wide use but I’m glad to see someone approaching the problem.

Full quality in colors (like in color conversions), no problens of banding or clipped colors, beautiful blurs and others things( informations that need high bit depth like velocity,normals and others passes can be used without limitations the bit depth)

thanks for quick overview, do you have a more detailed source explanation ?
