The Ozone 2015 plug-in lets you create and render hyper-realistic skies and atmospheres in 3ds Max, Maya, Softimage, Lightwave and Cinema4D.
Ozone 2015 implements the cutting-edge technologies developped by e-on software for the simulation and rendering of atmospheric effects. Its atmospheres provide an accurately simulated environment that affects all elements of your scenes and behaves according to nature’s rules.
Ozone 2015 is built on the same algorithms and integration technology as Vue xStream, but is limited to atmospheres and skies.
Interface
The Ozone 2015 interface is straight-forward and productive. It consists of 4 or 5 tabs, depending on the atmosphere model:
- Sun to adjust the position and size of the sun.
- Light to select and modify the lighting model you wish to use – standard or global ambience.
- Clouds to create layers of clouds and adjust their settings.
- Fog and Haze to adjust the density, distribution and color of the fog and haze.
- Sky, Fog and Haze (for Spectral Atmospheres) to set up parameters for fog and haze and to add such effects as volumetric sunlight and godrays.
- Effects to add special effects such as rainbows, stars, ice rings, etc...
Animate It All!
Ozone 2015 lets you animate everything from clouds and sun to fog and haze.
Take precise control of all animation properties by editing keyframes directly and then personalize in your timeline.
Skies spring to life as your clouds swirl!
New In Ozone 2015
- Interactive Cloud Control
- In Ozone 2015, cloud layers can be handled like regular objects. You can move, rotate or resize them interactively using your host application's standard manipulation gizmos.
- Localized Cloud Layers
- On top of the ability to move cloud layers around interactively using the gizmos, Ozone 2015 lets you "extract" portions of your cloud layers.
- If you like a specific part of a cloud layer, you can easily isolate it and get rid of the rest. You can even move these extracted portions around to another location!
- Enhanced Atmosphere Preview
- The atmosphere editor in Ozone 2015 can now be resized in order to increase the size of the preview.

Ozone’s Atmospheres are Compatible with Vue
Ozone 2015 is totally compatible with the Vue atmospheric system (e-on software’s award winning 3D scenery generator).
Any atmosphere created in Vue*can be used in Ozone 2015 for even more flexibility.
Even More Power with Vue xStream!
Vue is the world's leading 3D Digital Nature solution. Vue creates the entire environment for your scenes, and not just atmospheres
