OpenFX

Download link

OpenFX is an Open-Source 3D modeling, animation and rendering suite. It is completely compatible with Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.

What can OpenFX do?

A powerful feature-set includes a full renderer and raytrace engine, NURBS support, kinematics-based animation, morphing, and an extensive plugin API.

Plugin capabilities include :

• Image Post Processor Effects :

• Blur: Blurs the screen to simulate Motion Blur.
• Depth of Field: Simulates photographic depth of field.
• Filter: Changes the color of all pixels after the rendering is complete.
• Lens Flare: Simulates the effects of lights flaring in the lens of a camera.
• Fog: Simulates fog and haze.
• Glow: Adds a glow to any pixels with a key color.
• Halo: Adds a halo around lights.
• Hilite: Adds a hilite for lights.
• Lasers: Simulates the appearance of a laser beam.
• Starfield: Generates a scrolling starfield.
• Stars: Creates the effect of a starfield in an animation.
• SuperNova: Simulates the effect of a star going supernova.
• Trails: Leaves a trail behind for all models that move in a animation.
• Video: Offers 24 different video effects.
• Xvideo: Offers 26 additional different video effects.

• There are also two special image processors.

• Fireballs: This plugin XFX image processor adds the capability to generate fractal fireballs and explosions. This is an animated XFX image processor and its appearance changes over a range of frames. Therefore, although it can be added as a global effect, it is best used as an Image Effects (F/X) object (Actor).
• Atmospherics: Allows you to create atmospheric effects such as volumetric lighting, shadowing and fog using a number of configuration options.

• Animation Physical Effects :

• Build Effect: Builds a model towards the camera over a range of frames.
• Buildto Effect: Builds a model face by face from thin air and builds it towards the camera.
• Dissolve Effect: Makes a model become transparent gradually, until it disappears.
• Explode Effect: As you might expect, makes a model explode! You can set the center of the detonation, decide whether the pieces should fall under gravity or not, whether they should tumble, and more.
• Fall Effect: Makes a model fall down under the force of gravity. Thebouncing behavior and elasticity are fully adjustable.
• Flap Effect: A simultaneous combination of the Wave and Modulate effects.
• Modulate Effect: Passes a wave through the specified axis of the model and moves the vertices radially outward.
• Shake Effect: Makes the model shake from its bottom to its top.
• Spring Effect: Makes an actor with a costume compress inward upon itself and then fling off at high speed.
• Squash Effect: Compresses or expands an actor's costume in a specified direction. Unlike a simple scaling motion, the Squash effect causes the model to bulge outward, like a rubber ball.
• Twist Effect: Twists or untwists an actor's costume around the specified axis.
• Unbuild Effect: Takes the model apart face-by-face until nothing remains.
• Warp Effect: Makes a model warp out of view or into view.
• Wave Effect: Makes a model undulate under the force of a wave.

Adobe SWF Investigator

Download link

Adobe® SWF Investigator is the only comprehensive, cross-platform, GUI-based set of tools, which enables quality engineers, developers and security researchers to quickly analyze SWF files to improve the quality and security of their applications. With SWF Investigator, we can perform both static and dynamic analysis of SWF applications with just one toolset. SWF Investigator lets you quickly inspect every aspect of a SWF file from viewing the individual bits all the way through to dynamically interacting with a running SWF.

Features : 

• From a static perspective, we can disassemble ActionScript 2 (AS2) and ActionScript 3 (AS3) SWFs, view SWF tags and make binary changes to SWF files. SWF Investigator also lets you view associated information, including local shared objects (LSOs) and per site settings.
• From a dynamic perspective, we can call functions within the SWF, load the SWF in various contexts, communicate via local connections and send messages to Action Message Format (AMF) endpoints in order to test more effectively.
• SWF Investigator contains an extensible fuzzer for SWF applications and AMF services, so you can search for common Web application attacks. This toolset also provides a variety of utilities including encoders and decoders for SWF data, as well as a basic compiler for testing small pieces of Action-Script code.

Additional Benefits :

• SWF Investigator is the only application of its kind that's built on Adobe AIR – a versatile runtime that supports ActionScript, the language used tocreate SWF applications.  This allows for native interaction between the SWF Investigator and the SWF application. Using ActionScript also makes the source code of the tool more intuitive for SWF developers.
• SWF Investigator has the ability toauto-update, so you don't need toworry about whether or not you have the most current version.
• Since it's an open source AIR application, SWF Investigator can be modified to fit your environment, and it is cross-platform.
