It’s perfect for adding a touch of photorealism to CG renders, creating a cinematic atmosphere, and enhancing motion graphics. Set the mood with a few shimmering specks or unleash a turbulent sandstorm.

The new parameter linking feature in S_Effect and S_Transition allows editors and artists to create dynamic and complex effects by connecting parameters and values across different Sapphire effects. Users can set a “driver” parameter and then link other parameters to it, including adding offsets and multipliers.

Parameter linking gives users control over an entire effect’s animation with a single slider. This makes it easier to create advanced animations and effects without having to manually adjust multiple parameters!
