Available hosts#
This page intends to list all the implementations of the OpenMfx API as a host, i.e., all the creation tools that can handle OpenMfx plugins.
The most notable one so far is the OpenMfx for Blender branch. The need for such a standard urged when trying to tie Blender and Houdini together while respecting the spirit of the GPL license under which Blender is released. See the discussion on Blender Dev Talk forum.
UnityMfx is a Unity-based implementation of OpenMfx.
PythonMfx is a python-only implementation of an OpenMfx host. It is meant more for developing validation tools for plugins/hosts than for performance.
WebMfx is PoC running OpenMfx plugins on the web, using emscripten.
