Nuke 14.0 | Overview

[@liorweisspi]

a lot of in depth tools for 3D artists, But I would like to see more quick simple tools for our day to day 2D/3D composing challenges, tracking, removing tools, mash tracking instead of going to mocha. copy keyframes. simple keying modules and 3D roto like in Flame. fast in platform effects like the shaders in flame. we are on the go and always having to send to other software to generate better tracks, faster roto, or get elements. it's still a merge tool for the most part. a good one.

[@svendejong9101]

This exactly!

[@NUCLEARARMAMENT]

Why not just use Flame in that case? It's a better system overall, IMHO.

Sadly, they keep piling up more not fully baked features instead of fixing what every actual everyday user knows isn't working, especially on the high end industry level. Scripts keep getting more unstable, and many basic tools haven't been revamped in over a decade. I understand the need to include new features for commercial reasons, but the reality is that people who actually pay for this knows exactly which features are fundamentally broken and would much rather they fixed those than add new cutting edge features that are barely used in the real world save for some particular cases. This doesn't mean new features aren't welcome, or even needed, because of course they are. But they shouldn't be prioritized over everyday tools that are really behind in terms of performance, scale and stability.

I hope an update to the 3d camera tracking system will be introduced also soon

[@CompositingAcademy]

Or a better rotopaint, or rasterized painting with brushes!

[@poopiecon1489]

we desperately need better rotopaint workflow+node@@CompositingAcademy

[@pabbisharma1765]

My god lot of updates at once. its kinda immensely crazy work the foundry have done on this latest version for ease of workflow. kudos to all the @Foundry team for making things possible cheers 💫

[@glmstudiogh]

did you guys show some love to the particle system too?

[@sikamoreify]

Yeah like fixing critical logged bugs that are 5+ years old.

[@mattbarkerart]

Hoping you can press F to frame up a camera while looking through it now. The 3d workflow needed a overhaul the whole time!

[@xanzuls]

New updates look great but guys, Nuke still looks like it's from 2009.

[@bishoy33]

Very excited to try it

[@matinprsd]

Awesome stuff? Is it true that Bokeh going to be implemented in the next versions of Nuke?

[@timvfxx]

This update includes more about USD. But it's great for everyone to start using the USD concept quickly.

[@jazvfx]

So, basically you have stopped completely to develop the compositing side of Nuke to focus on the 3D side. That is some disapointement. :( Not that I am agaisnt improvement in the 3D space. But I would want the compositing side evolve. - The keyers could vastley improved, maybe using your machine learning... It is still a pain to key and it is almost the same tools than 10 years ago. - The tracking and stabilizing is still giving mixed results. - The Zdefocus is still far away from giving nice realistic edges. Most studios still depend on PGbokeh which is slow and sometimes overkill. - Memory management can still be improved working on big scripts. I am always happy to see updates, but to be honnest I haven't seen real exciting tools updates in 15 years of beeing a compositor.

[@chillsoft]

I also feel that the USD thing is something major studios have probably asked for and so the biggest payer gets what they want. I feel the same as you in regard to most of the tools you talk about, especially ZDefocus!!

"Foundry will be integrating and supporting Bokeh starting with Nuke 13.2v6 and Nuke 14.0v2 across the whole product range which will be available to customers on maintenance from January 2023." -peregrinelabs

[@goldfish818]

I could use a better DeNoise… like Neat Video…

[@patfer1189]

Updating the 3D side's performance was long overdue. It had been lagging behind for years.

[@MatthiasLowry]

I agree, the comp side needs updating especially since it's a COMP software , ie Better caching for image playback and many more things should have been fixed. Oh and reduce the price lol

[@ushakovkirill]

Price - 10,268$ =(

[@danielvanderkaaden8502]

The cattery makes me quite happy.

[@MONEYVAL9]

I no longer see the write geo working as before. Any ideas on this. Still looking around.

[@ContentMonsters]

FANTASTIC!!

[@Sher245]

Still nothing on making it GPU-friendly. Guess we'll have to wait for a company to create an alternative.

[@NUCLEARARMAMENT]

Just use Flame.

[@rano12321]

[@ride19881]

Any news on removing the limitations for Nuke Indie?

[@nilaanabeywardene2243]

Is this version natively supports on Apple silicon hardware?

[@lewiswright4038]

will be adding updated and new support for VR workflows along with the various lens for 180 VR content

[@baldoski]

This new login system doesn't work on Linux systems (RHEL 9, Ubuntu 20 and up, Arch) since few months...

[@haifucui134]

Now, I still don't really understand how to use copycat correctly. A new shot can use other shot catfile? continue calculating?

[@cineffect]

The price makes me love Blender even more.

[@omidpakbin]

Exactly! And Blender is improving really fast almost every 3 months. You get all that power and features for $0!

[@gutpunkt]

As someone who has never used nuke. Why would I use 3D objects in nuke, i would assume that rendering is better in maya or blender, right?

[@lucascarracedo7421]

Many reasons. Sometimes you are given renders and need to generate something else, maybe extra shadows or textures, decals, etcetera. Or to add some matte painting on top of renders, or whatever. Usually the main point isn't to render the main CG pass in Nuke but to get extra elements that aren't provided by a different department. Imagine a sports stadium, you're usually given geo for the banners so the graphics in those can be animated, changed or whatever in Nuke instead of having to wait for another render. In fact, that same setup could be shared with other artists working on similar stadium shots from the same sequence in this example, or even published as a tool, and that is easy to update globally. You could also get geo for a scene to add extra particles in Nuke, or stock footage in 3D cards, and you'd use the geo to hold out those elements you're adding. There's infinite possible scenarios where having a 3D environment in Nuke is helpful. The reason is flexibility mostly.

[@andregama8068]

If you lower the price, I promise I'll migrate to Nuke

[@i20010]

Flame is now cheaper than nuke...

[@sikamoreify]

don't hold your breath.

[@xanzuls]

Fusion does most while being a fraction of the price.

[@GameIneo]

I'm in love

[@xbaroka]

Where is new Bokeh ???😢

[@ArgoTours1]

hard software so difficult to learn this option with this old interface , Blackmagic better

[@Odynophonia]

The Cattery! Hahaha!

[@smb3d]

I'm hoping the unrealReader can be a replacement for the composure stack in UE, cause it's hot garbage right now. Very difficult to use and extremely poorly documented.

[@sanaksanandan]

When are we getting AI based automatic keying and comping that works with a simple prompt. "create high quality comp".

Please advise, if anyone has encountered. What should I do if when opening NukeX you get a black window saying "NukeX 14.0v2, 64 bit, built Jan 13 2023. Copyright (c) 2023 The Foundry Visionmongers Ltd. All Rights Reserved." NukeX itself just won't open
