All graphical elements can be visually rearranged, with no change being permanent.

Results are resolution independent and automatically seamless.

Genetica lays out a texture's construction visually so that it is easy to understand and edit.

Changing a texture's elements causes the entire texture to automatically update as if it had

always been made that way. This example shows what would happen if the imported photograph

indicated in the previous illustration was replaced with a different one.

With Genetica results are automatically seamless.

Genetica textures are resolution-independent, so they can be rendered at different sizes whenever needed.

The inset image shows a reflective metal texture, while the main image shows that trees can be seen reflected

at the tip of each point when the texture is rendered large enough.

 

 

Create awesome designs with a new suite of drawing tools.

Genetica will take care of making your drawings seamless.

Genetica's drawing tools make it easy to create seamlessly repeating designs,

such as this endless strip of interlocking gears.

Genetica comes packed with tools specially attuned to the needs of textures artists.

Here automatic symmetry has been applied to the door's metal reinforcements, but not the cracks in the boards.

By combining the drawing tools with Genetica's procedural generators, the creative possibilities are endless.

 

 

 

Achieve realism in seconds by applying sophisticated styles to your designs.

With a few clicks apply sophisticated visual to your designs.

Simple line drawings can be given reflections, highlights, bevels, shadows, and many other effects within seconds.

 

Create your own unique styles, or select from the tons of ready-made styles that come included.

 

 

 

Genetica combines the flexibility of its node-based system with a set of

powerful Lab Nodes that automate tricky graphics tasks.

Lab Nodes allow complex graphics jobs to be performed through an easy and

friendly interface. This texture only needed two nodes: a Substance Lab to make the base material,

followed by a Weather Lab to add further details.

Whether battering a slab of rock, smudging a plank of wood, or corroding a metal floor,

the Weather Lab will be an indispensable part of your texturing toolkit.

With well over 100 properties and selectable options in the Cut & Tile Lab alone,

you will not run out of unique looks from this user-friendly tool.

This example shows just one of the ways that textures can be combined in the Layer Lab.

The top texture has been made to look like it's peeling off of the bottom texture.

From clothing to wall hangings to furniture, weave textures can add depth and realism to a scene.

The middle example was made by filtering a photograph of a snowy park.

These examples show just a few of the more than 50 patterns that are

immediately available for your vent and grate textures.

 

 

 

Genetica simulates environmental reflections, global illumination, shadows,

ambient occlusion, and more, in order to give you the most realistic surfaces possible.

Numerous HDRI lighting setups come included.

 

 

 

The number of preset textures, styles, and environment maps is now in the thousands.

These royalty-free resources can be edited or used as-is in your projects.

Genetica now includes thousands of preset textures, styles, and environment maps.
These textures can be freely modified or used in your projects as-is.

Almost every preset texture comes with multiple matching grayscale effect maps

that can be used in specular channels, bump channels, and others.

 

 

 

Genetica will generate effect maps that can be used in any of the channels supported by

your 3D environment, such as bump, specular, reflection, luminance, and others.

Genetica will create effect maps that can be used in any of the material channels supported

by your 3D environment.In this example an effect map has been placed in the luminance

channel of the material to cause specific parts of it to glow in the dark.

Rendering the original texture (top left) in Color Only mode will create a flat version without highlights or

shadows (top right). This can then be used in combination with a displacement or bump map (also created

by Genetica) in your final scene to give your materials a truly three-dimensional appearance.

 

 

 

Create custom HDRI environment maps for use both within

Genetica and your external 3D environment.

The Pro and Studio editions of Genetica come with a sophisticated HDRI environment map editor

that can create new environment maps from scratch as well as modify existing ones.

The Pro and Studio editions also come with a number of nodes for rotating,

converting, diffusing, and refracting environment maps.  This allows custom node

networks to be built that manipulate environment maps in unique ways.

 

 

 

Render and export HDRI environment maps in common

formats like latitude/longitude, mirrored ball, and cubic.

The Pro and Studio editions of Genetica can render and

export HDRI environment maps for use in external 3D applications.

Environment maps can be exported in all common map types.

Genetica environment maps will fo great things to your shaders.

Be sure to ckeck out THIS VIDEO for more details.

 

 

 

 Normal Maps:

Enjoy fully-integrated normal map generation.

Like any of the other effect maps created in Genetica, normal maps are automatically

seamless and can be re-rendered at any desired resolution.

The Pro and Studio editions of Genetica provide fully integrated normal map generation.

 

 

 

The Hair node and Fiber Lab allow graphics professionals to quickly create a wide range

of fully-seamless fibrous materials from animal fur to fuzzy cloth.

From long blonde hair, to snow-covered brush, to a grassy field, Genetica Pro and

Studio's new Hair node and Fiber Lab will be invaluable.

 

 

 

The batch processor will allow you to automate a variety of repetitive tasks,

such as applying the same effect to a number of textures, or

automatically rendering large numbers of textures.

The Pro and Studio editions of Genetica deliver sophisticated batch processing

that will automate a variety of repetitive tasks.  In this example an

artist used Genetica to automatically apply the same grime

effect to all textures to be used in the same dusty attic scene.

Genetica Pro's batch processor not only allows you to render whole folders

full of textures in a single operation, but it can simultaneously output

each texture at numerous resolutions, as illustrated here.

Artists with vast texture collections will appreciate the ability to re-render

their entire collections at different resolutions as their needs change, while artists with

on-line galleries will love how they can convert their entire

collection into thumbnails, complete with drop shadows and other effects.

 

 

 

Convert Lab Nodes into node trees, giving you unmatched control over your textures.

In Genetica Pro and Studio, Lab Nodes can be converted into a node tree that

offers ultimate control over every aspect of the texture.  This allows artists

to combine the ease of the Labs with the flexibility of an open node network.

 

 

 

Export images from Genetica in formats supporting high dynamic ranges and ultra-high color precision.

The Pro and Studio editions allow you to take full advantage of Genetica's floating-point

pipeline by exporting images in high dynamic range and floating-point formats.

This applies to textures in addition to environment maps.

 

 

 

Create animated textures, transitions, and special effects.

 

 

 

Take advantage of the library of royalty-free animated presets that come included in Genetica Studio.

The Studio edition of Genetica comes with a large number of

animation presets that can be modified or used as-is in your projects.

 

 

 

Higher editions are able to render textures at higher resolutions.

The maximum size at which a texture can be rendered and exported depends on the edition.

The Basic edition has a maximum size of 3000 x 3000,

while Pro and Studio have a maximum size of 6000 x 6000.
