Houdini, one of the most prominent software in the visual effects and 3D animation industry, continues to innovate with its latest update, Modeler 2025. This new version introduces advanced tools that improve the way artists interact with the software, making the 3D modeling process smoother and more efficient.
Key Improvements in Modeler 2025
One of the major improvements in Modeler 2025 is the more seamless integration of modeling tools, without the need to activate special modes. Now, everything is handled more intuitively through customizable menus, allowing users to adapt their workspace to their needs and improve their workflow speed. This update makes the tools much easier to use and accessible.
Retopology and Surface Editing with PolyPen
Among the most notable new features is the improvement in retopology of models. Thanks to this new functionality, artists can take complex models and optimize them for use in animations or video games. This is possible thanks to tools like Draw Patch, which allows creating surfaces with quad geometry just by drawing on them.
Additionally, PolyPen greatly facilitates model surface editing. This tool improves both precision and speed when working on models, even when using a stylus pen. PolyPen's interface has been redesigned to make the process more efficient, allowing artists to close gaps in models more easily.
A More Efficient Workflow
With these improvements, Modeler 2025 significantly enhances the modeling experience in Houdini, facilitating complex tasks and making the workflow more intuitive. The new tools allow artists and designers to dedicate more time to creativity and less to technical tasks, optimizing the 3D model creation and editing process.
“Modeler 2025 transforms the way artists work with Houdini, improving efficiency and precision in 3D model creation.”
This update is a demonstration of how Houdini continues to adapt to professionals' needs, providing more powerful and accessible tools for 3D modeling. Thanks to improvements like PolyPen, users can work with greater fluidity and precision, enhancing the final results of their projects.
