What's New
Autodesk® Inferno® 2010 visual effects software features significant functionality, performance, and interoperability enhancements. Improvements include extended format support for RED ONE R3D^TM files, 3D text upgrades, Batch workflow enhancements, and new productivity tools.

New Creative Tools
Autodesk® Flare^TM software is a compatible creative companion to Autodesk Inferno and Autodesk® Flame® software, featuring the same creative capabilities as its parent suite. Flare offers a scalable way to help expand your business and develop talent.
The 3D Blur tool helps you to create optical blurs like those generated by lenses. It uses vector passes and z-depth maps as inputs and can accept high-contrast images or patterns. Blurs can be animated.
The Normal Mapping tool allows you to take advantage of render passes typically generated by 3D applications and transported via multi-channel OpenEXR® files. This tool helps you to relight rendered 3D scenes without going back to the 3D application.
The Displacement Map tool is now available as an independent object to enhance workflow and extend the range of control when using displacement maps in the Action 3D compositing environment.
Displacement mapping can also be applied to 3D geometries, such as 3D text, extruded geometries, or objects created with 3D applications.
The redesigned Modular Keyer delivers Inferno software's most extensive and flexible toolset for solving keying problems. All keyer algorithms are now available in the Modular Keyer. New keyer presets help artists to work faster in challenging keying situations.
Enhanced 3D text tool provides motion graphics artists with powerful typesetting tools, including the ability to render 3D text on a path, focus animations on individual characters, and cascade an animation across letters.

Expanded Format Support
Autodesk® WiretapCentral^TM software provides parameters to optimize import properties and color management settings, enabling easy and efficient importing of RED ONE R3D^TM format files directly into storage.
RED files can be imported as isolated files, or in a batch using an EDL file or an Apple® Final Cut Pro® application program XML file to dramatically enhance efficiency.
Automatically import multichannel OpenEXR files using WiretapCentral.
Import and export Avid DNxHD codec in an Apple® QuickTime® application program wrapper to extend the range of collaboration with offline editing application, Avid Media Composer.

Workflow and Productivity Enhancements
Extended support for floating-point processing in all Batch nodes provides greater control over 16-bit file formats, such as OpenEXR image files. Now you can more realistically integrate computer graphic (CG) content into complex scenes in the Action 3D compositing environment.
Faster file-based conform workflow-the redesign of the Recapture module provides more effective recursive searches of directories, the list of recaptured media, and found media.
