About This Software

CREATE. EDIT. ENHANCE. ANIMATE!

Start creating with PixageFX Nodes at no cost.

PixageFX Nodes is a comprehensive visual creation tool that brings image editing, animation, effects, pixel art, illustration, video, procedural generation, 3D rendering and much more together in a flexible node-based system.

From quickly editing an image and building complex animations to creating reusable processing chains and running your own code, you can handle your entire production workflow in a single application.

Connect operations, animate parameters, experiment with different results and save your workflows for later use.

FLEXIBLE NODE-BASED WORKFLOW

PixageFX Nodes' fully flexible node system lets you connect operations visually, split them into branches and arrange them in any order you choose.

• Essential tools such as scaling, cropping, rotating and color adjustment

• Add keyframes to all supported parameters

• Detailed Timeline and animation editor

• A comprehensive range of blend and compositing modes for combining images

• Tools for creating, modifying and processing alpha channels

• Essential mathematics modules

• Drag-and-drop support for compatible file types

BUILT-IN DRAWING AND CREATION TOOLS

PixageFX Nodes provides layer-based drawing and creation tools, allowing you to create new content and edit existing work without relying on an external drawing application.

• Vector Painter: Import vector graphics, edit them or draw from scratch. Combine and transform shapes, arrange them in layers and apply advanced visual styles. Animate supported movements, transformations and style parameters to create animated scenes.

• Pixel Painter: Draw pixel art, edit existing images and create frame-based animations with the layer-based Pixel Painter.

• Pixel to Voxel: Convert pixel art into 3D voxel models, paint your models and animate basic transform parameters such as position, rotation and scale.

• Nine-Slice Editor: Draw UI elements from scratch or turn existing artwork into adaptable Nine-Slice interface elements.

ANIMATION, VIDEO AND EXPORT

Work with everything from static images to animated content. Animate parameters on the timeline, then export your project in supported image, image-sequence or video formats.

Create as many independent animation layers as you need in a project. Play each animation once, loop it or use ping-pong playback, then combine layers to build complex motion sequences.

• Parameter-based animation system

• Use keyframes with every supported parameter

• Multi-layer animation structure

• Play once, loop and ping-pong playback modes

• Detailed timeline controls

• Export static images and animations

• Work with image sequences

• Import and export video

• Support for different color depths and channel layouts: 1-bit, 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit, RGBA and more

Available watermark-free export formats and project limits vary according to your PixageFX Nodes package.

PIXEL ART, PALETTES AND DITHERING

PixageFX Nodes does more than process existing images. Its built-in tools let you create new content and control the entire color structure of your pixel-art projects.

• Layer-based Pixel Painter

• Create color palettes

• Automatically extract palettes from images

• Apply palettes to images, animations and videos

• Advanced dithering methods

• Tools for processing and converting alpha channels

• Modules for color conversion, correction and stylization

PROCEDURAL CREATION AND UI TOOLS

Create procedural textures and reusable visual elements with module-based generator tools.

• Procedural texture generator modules

• Mathematics-based visual generation tools

• UI development tools

• Create and edit Nine-Slice elements

Watermark-free use of Generator modules is available with the PixageFX Nodes Standard and Pro packages.

3D MODEL AND TEXTURE PROCESSING

PixageFX Nodes Pro lets you incorporate static or animated 3D models directly into your workflow.

• Render static and animated 3D models

• Import numerous industry-standard 3D model formats

• Modify, edit and process 3D model textures

• Extract normal maps and depth maps from 3D models

• Create 3D voxel models from images

• Export models in supported 3D formats

Note: PixageFX Nodes is not currently designed for directly editing the mesh or topology of 3D models.

PixageFX Nodes Pro is required to use 3D modules and 3D export features without a watermark.

ADD YOUR OWN CODE TO THE WORKFLOW

You are not limited to ready-made modules. PixageFX Nodes Pro provides several coding options for creating your own tools and effects.

• Write, compile and run C++ code

• Write and run Lua scripts

• Write and run Python scripts

• Create OpenGL Fragment Shader effects

• Make your own code part of the node-based workflow

• Run ONNX-based AI models

PixageFX Nodes Pro is required to use Script, shader and ONNX modules without a watermark.

SAVE AND SHARE YOUR WORKFLOWS

Save your node systems as presets, reuse them in other projects and share them with other users through Steam Workshop.

Download presets created by other users and add them to your projects, so you can start immediately without rebuilding complex processing chains from scratch.

YOUR WORKSPACE, YOUR WAY

Arrange the PixageFX Nodes workspace to suit the way you create.

• Movable and resizable windows

• Customizable workspace

• Save and reload workspace layouts

• Multi-monitor support

• Create separate workspaces for different tasks

• Adjustable interface scaling

• Dark and light theme options

USER-FOCUSED INFRASTRUCTURE

PixageFX Nodes combines production tools with an infrastructure that makes it easy for users to report problems and extend the application to suit their needs.

• Crash Report system that gathers the necessary technical information when an unexpected problem occurs

• Create bug reports on GitHub and follow existing reports

• Submit requests for new features and improvements

• 15 built-in interface languages

• Create and add custom language files beyond the included languages

• Automatically translate Notes modules in projects into the selected language with the built-in Translator

PYXELAID INTEGRATION

PyxelAid users can use PyxelAid modules directly in node-based workflows inside PixageFX Nodes.

• Access PyxelAid modules from within PixageFX Nodes

• Open and use PyxelAid presets

• Combine PyxelAid operations with other PixageFX Nodes modules

PyxelAid is sold separately. Users who do not own PyxelAid can try these modules, but outputs that use them will be watermarked.

MOCAP2D INTEGRATION

Mocap2D users can render character animations inside PixageFX Nodes and process the resulting images with other modules.

• Spine2D skeleton rendering modules

• Unity skeleton rendering modules

• Add rendered character images to the node-based workflow

With this system:

• You can test a feature directly in your own project before purchasing it.

• You can see which package your workflow requires.

• You can decide whether Basic, Standard or Pro is right for you.

• You do not have to pay in advance for features you do not need.

Start for free, build your own workflow and upgrade only to the package you genuinely need.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

During the development of the application, artificial intelligence was utilized to generate supporting utility code and translate user interface localization options into different languages.
