A sketch rendering mode produces non photorealistic images that appear as if they were drawn by manual rendering techniques, such as oil painting, water color, or pencil hatches. Third-party rendering plugins Maxwell Maxwell 5 is a rendering engine developed by NextLimit based on light physics. The Maxwell plugin allows for the assignment of Maxwell materials to form·Z objects with fast visual rendered feedback using Maxwell FIRE. Once the materials are established, the plugin transfers the scene including objects, lights and the viewing parameters to Maxwell for rendering. Maxwell 5 uses CPU and or GPU* hardware and has access to cloud-based rendering internally. V-Ray V-Ray is a rendering engine developed by Chaos Labs & austodessys using CPU and/or GPU (PC hardware with Nvidia CUDA-based GPU cards.). The V-Ray plugin allows for the assignment of V-Ray materials to form·Z objects. Once the materials are established, the plugin transfers the scene including objects, lights interactive or progressive rendering. Popular culture Form•Z and RenderZone Plus claim to be used in Hollywood productions, in and behind the scenes (set design pre-production and construction, miniature model design, pre-vis animation, CG special effects, post-production etc.). Productions include: Ocean's Eleven, Pirates of the Caribbean, Planet of the Apes, Reign of Fire, Space Cowboys, Solaris, Star Trek Into Darkness, Terminator 3 and Transformers.
