Autodesk Flame 2020

3‑Year Multi‑user Subscription

Flame 2020 3-Year Multi-user Subscription offers tools for fast, interactive 3D visual effects, finishing, compositing, advanced graphics, color grading, conform, editorial, and look development. Flame 2020 offers VFX artists tools for fast and interactive visual effects, editorial finishing, and 3D compositing.

Machine Learning-based AOV Generation

With Machine Learning-based AOV Generation and 3D AOV in Selectives, you now have unique ways to isolate and modify common objects in moving footage, for Color grading and compositing purposes.

Background Reactor (Linux Only)

Background Reactor on single GPU, automatic background rendering, and Background Reactor optimizations allow you to keep moving without having to remember to send your work to render, using GPU and system capacity to its fullest.

OpenFX

OpenFX support has been extended to even more plugins. Filters, General, and Generator plugins now appear in the Plugin drop-down menu.
In Batch, the sockets required by an OpenFX are now dynamically updated based on the selected plugin.

Support for UDIM Texture

The UDIM texture format is now supported in Action. It includes support for TX, TXR, and TXT files.
You can import and export UDIM textures from Action FBX import/export, or just import it through a texture node Read File menu

Batch

Cryptomatte as a Batch Node. You now have a ne w Batch node called Cryptomatte. This new node extracts Mattes out of Cryptomatte data passes. It has seven inputs: one for the Front input and six for the three RGBA crypto matte data passes.Include Setup without Open Clip. You can use the Write File node and export the Batch setup without having to also create an Open Clip.

Python API

The Flame Python API is a tool for any Flame user looking to script their workflow and automate tedious tasks. The Python API is accessed via the Flame Python Console. This console gives you a place to write and execute code while working in Flame.
