與Digic Pictures和Luma Pictures合作，Sitni Sati宣布FumeFX for Maya有了進一步的發展。皆以Autodesk Maya為基礎的研發內容，確保FumeFX for Maya可即時投入製程的環境中。FumeFX for Maya應在今年後半段的時間就會推出。

Effector
是在這個版本中最強大的功能。只需點擊滑鼠幾下，Artists就可以在內定的規則下調整和改變物理模擬法則。例如，Effectors可用velocity控制vorticity，煙霧的顏色來控制重力，而火是在user定義的速率參數voxels下產生的，以上這些都可進一步透過test condition或是Effector的Gizmo微調。

RenderWarps
是另一實用工具可運用在許多特效鏡頭上。這個功能使Users可應用在Space warps套用向FFD、Bend、Taper和Noise來預先計算FumeFX caches。以RenderWarps作為後製處理的階段，則不需要再重新模擬一次了。

N-Sim
讓artists可一起連結多個網格 並同時執行模擬來整合為一個大型的模擬。此方法用在增強場景的細緻度，像是火箭發射的煙霧特效。

GPU加速預覽
是另一個省時、即時預覽並調整效果的彩現功能。可以非常快的速度運算出Self-Shadows，並且users可旋轉攝影機，觀看任何角度的效果。FumeFX也支援即時幾何物件與煙霧同時預覽效果。
GPU accelerated Preview Window with self-shadow and geometry
FumeFX的實用性已經過證實，如《雨果的冒險》、《3D惡靈戰警:復仇時刻》、《雷神索爾》、《獵魔教士3D》、《2012》等和各種遊戲動畫，如《戰鎚Online》，《Classic Transformers》，《但丁的地獄之旅》等其他。
Key Features
- Production proven results demonstrate this technology's ability to achieve realistic smoke and fire effects for cutting-edge industry applications.
- FumeFX supplements the user's artistic vision with the power of real-world physics for the ultimate in both style and realism.
- GPU accelerated Preview Windows with self-shadows and geometry.
- A multitude of parameters and FumeFX helpers give users maximum control of the fluid's behavior and appearance.
- Easy to use, basic effects can be created with just a few clicks.
- Options include the use of powerful AFC and Gradient controls, which are unified through all Sitni Sati products.
- Plug-in design incorporates extensive support for Particle Flow and Thinking Particles.
- Dynamic simulations allow for bi-directional influence between FumeFX and particle systems.
- Advanced scripting via MAXScript is possible with almost every aspect of FumeFX, including access to all simulation data.
- FumeFX is capable of dynamic interaction with other scene objects.
Simulation
- Simulation of nested grids in one go (N-Sim).
- Powerfull Effectors that can contol almost every parameter on a per-voxel basis.
- Application of various Space Warp deformers on caches.
- FumeFX can use Variable Density solver that uses smoke density and temperature as variables.
- Start simulations from scratch or by using other simulation results as a starting point.
- Stop, pause and continue simulations at any point.
- Simulation is multithreaded - users can select how many CPU's to dedicate to their simulation.
- Users can watch the simulation progress in the interactive GPU accelerated Preview Window.
- Interactive simulation allows user to change almost every parameter during the simulation and see it's influence on the simulation result.
- Draft simulations can be created in mere minutes for fast previewing.
- Multiple advection schemes that can minimize numerical dissipation.
- User has control of which data is written to output files for rendering and further processing.
- Wavelet Turbulence algorithm quickly adds extra detail to low resolution simulation caches while preserving the existing overall motion.
- Retimer is a very efficient and fast method to slow down or speed up caches without the need to re-run simulation.
- Post Processing module can significantly reduce cache size by optimizing grid size around smoke/fire. It also allows users to decide which channels will be excluded from the final caches.
Rendering
- mental ray for 3ds Max renderer support - available for both Windows and Linux.
- The GPU accelerated Preview Window gives users almost instant feedback on render settings.
- Fast self-shadowing is produced through an Illumination Map which is integrated inside of the FumeFX object.
- A highly efficient Multiple Scattering model enhances light dispersion throughout fluid and between multiple FumeFX grids..
- Fluid Mapping integrates procedural map details with fluid motion.
- The dynamic FusionWorks atmospheric renderer provides:
- Render Elements: Fire, Smoke, Velocity
- Proper blending with AfterBurn and ScatterVL Pro.
- Balanced mixing of FumeFX and compatible atmospherics with 3ds Max Fog
- Ability to apply Image Motion Blur
- Option to affect Effect Channel
- Z depth
