EmberGen is currently used in over 150 leading game studios. Our games specific workflow has been battle tested in production. From fire and explosions, to energy and magical effects, we have you covered. Not only does EmberGen allow for real-time iteration, but its ease of use and built-in texture export features are unparalleled.

EmberGen has a flipbook workflow unlike any other simulator in the industry. Generate game-ready, fully assembled flipbooks in seconds, then preview your flipbook animations with our inspector tool. Need to make a change? No problem, it’ll only take a few seconds.

Actual Render Speed for a 2048x2048 Flipbook

We get it: simulations and renders usually take forever to get right. That's why we built EmberGen. Unlike other software, it uses the full power of your GPU—so you can simulate and render volumetric phenomenon in real-time. Not only does EmberGen produce game-ready flipbooks in seconds, it now allows you to create iterations easier and faster than ever before. Utilize random seeds to generate new iterations with rapidity. Do note that all simulations are deterministic, so you can be sure the simulation is the same each time you open your project.

With the release of EmberGen 0.7.5, we're now a force to be reckoned with in the film industry. After adding animated FBX and Alembic support, as well as FBX camera imports and backplates, we guarantee you that EmberGen has a place in your pipeline. In the face of ever-tightening deadlines, studios around the world are turning to EmberGen. EmberGen can help you dramatically reduce time spent on simulations and rendering. Export to EXR/PNG/TGA and openVDB.

Other tools take hours to produce simulations and renders, but with EmberGen you can quickly create incredible visual effects in real-time. For the release of EmberGen 0.7.5, we developed a cutting-edge renderer and new creative tools to allow artists to create high fidelity simulations, in just a fraction of the time you'd spend using other DCC packages.

EmberGen provides over 20 export passes: from final renders and scattering maps to depth and alpha holdouts from imported geometry. No hassles or custom tooling required. We get you in and out of the software faster than anyone else.

Import your FBX cameras and backplates into EmberGen to create composite ready renders. Backplates can consist of image sequences or just a single image. In your final render, the jittering depicted in the video on the right will not be present. Once EmberGen is out of beta, we hope to smooth the results displayed in the viewport.

Whether you're painting in 2D, or adding atmospheric effects to a 3D world, EmberGen can help you produce stunning concept art featuring gorgeous visual effects. 3D concept artists love that EmberGen can generate endless VDB volume files or images for compositions. 2D artists can use EmberGen outputs as brushes or items to layer into their work, quickly adding volumetric effects with ease. Using our backplates import feature, import your concept art to properly light and render your simulation before creating your final piece.
