brix maya texture plugin released

Touted as the “Next generation procedural textures” Brix from developer Materialwerk has been released from beta to full on version 1.0.

“BRIX is the ultimate solution for unparalleled quality tiled materials in 3D Studio Max and Maya. With the BRIX texture plugin and the included material library, it is easier than ever before to create realistic brick wall materials, parquet patterns, stone floors, roofs, interior tiles or other tiled materials. A new concept with a completely new technology allows creation and rendering of ultra high resolution materials with very low memory usage. No matter how many bricks or tiles are needed, the randomized creation of the textures at rendertime eliminates repetition and tiling. BRIX offers more flexibility than standard materials with changeable pattern types, individual bricks or tiles and randomization of color, position, size and surface.”
