Bifrost 3: RBD updates, small-scale liquids, & more (What's New in Maya 2027)

Bifrost 3.0.0.0 includes performance improvements for rigid body dynamics, surface tension settings for realistic droplets and splashes at high resolution, plus much more.

  • Asynchronous evaluation allows you to keep working in the Bifrost Editor while computations run in the background.
  • New constraints are available for rigid body simulations, including hinges and sliders.
  • Ocean surface simulations can now be used as guides to add splashes and droplets to liquid simulations.
  • Rigging updates include an eye module that drives eyelid deformation, and a rod solver for secondary animation on chain-like and tree-like structures.
  • Transforms have new user-friendly widgets for entering parameter values. Additionally, you can set the pivot interactively while using Bifrost manipulators in the viewport.
  • There are many new nodes and sample graphs.

See the Bifrost Release Notes for a complete list of features and bug fixes included in this version.
