  3. Launch

    Magnific launched a Blender plugin that lets 3D artists generate from their viewport, create 3D assets and PBR materials, and bring results into their scene.

    What this means for you: 3D artists using Blender can generate images from what they see in the viewport (the 3D working window) and create 3D assets and PBR materials (surface looks such as metal or fabric). The results go straight into the scene, with no exporting and re-importing of files.

    Why it matters: Magnific says 3D workflows already have enough steps and that exporting and re-importing files shouldn't add more. On Oct 2 it released version 2.0 of its After Effects plugin, so this extends its plugins to another creative app.
