ICE

The ICE environment – XSI functionality is displayed using a node-based dataflow diagram. Each node has specific capabilities. Users connect nodes to create a desired effect. A group of nodes can be packaged together into a “compound”, which is displayed as a single node. As a result, highly complex tools can be deployed and re-used without writing code.

ICE Particles - Volumetric Shaders

ICE Particles – ICE lets you create amazing particle effects quickly in XSI using a node-based dataflow diagram. ICE is also used in the Render Tree, so you can enjoy working with compounds and nodes to create complex particle shaders

ICE Particles - Pyromania

ICE Particles – ICE lets you create effects quickly in XSI without scripting. Effects can be driven dynamically - in this example, a tree burns dynamically in realtime.

ICE - Snow Plough

ICE Particles – ICE lets you create complex effects quickly in XSI without scripting. This example shows both deformation and particles as a boulder ploughs through snow.
