Highlights
 |
Breathe life into 3D models with powerful animation tools Whether you’re animating lifelike digi doubles or lovable cartoon characters, Maya has the animation toolset to bring your 3D assets to life. |
|
Create detailed simulations with Bifrost for Maya From blazing explosions to complex snowstorms, Bifrost makes it possible to create physically accurate simulations in a single visual programming environment. |
 |
What's New
|
|
Produce content faster and raise the bar of high-quality visuals with new capabilities in Maya. The latest release brings support for LookdevX, an agnostic material editor that allows you to share materials seamlessly across the pipeline and includes a new, modern, node-based environment for authoring material graphs like USD, MaterialX, and Arnold. Maya also offers you more artistic control with updates to modeling tools like Retopologize and the Boolean toolset, while animation and rigging updates keep you in the creative zone.
