Nightlords are arguably the hardest enemies in Elden Ring Nightreign — powerful, nerve-racking bosses who show up at the very end of your runs. All the preparation you go through during the first two days of a match in Elden Ring Nightreign — from farming runes to looking for ways to upgrade your weapons — is in service of one goal: getting strong enough to beat the Nightlord of your run. Each boss has their own dedicated mechanics and weaknesses, and you can tackle (most) of them in the order you see fit. In this Elden Ring Nightreign guide, we’ll go over our recommendation of the the best Nightlords order so you know which boss fights to prioritize.  Best Nightlords boss fight order in Elden Ring Nightreign  The best Nightlords order in Elden Ring Nightreign is a subjective matter, largely up to your individual class, equipment, and personal adeptness with each character. That said, we’ve assembled guide to present what would be, in our opinion, the fights you should focus on first to build up confidence and accumulate knowledge about the game. In general, the better-prepared you are for each fight, the better you’ll fare. But some Nightlords are less forgiving than others if you reach the final day under-leveled or under-equipped. Along the same lines, we consider bosses who can inflict detrimental effects more difficult to prepare for than those who you can defeat simply by mastering their mechanics. And then, of course, there’s the huge matter that all of this — as with all things Nightreign — is contingent on whether or not your teammates actually collaborate with you. With all this in mind, below, here’s our recommendation for the best Nightlords order in Elden Ring Nightreign, with their respective expedition names in parentheses. Gladius, Beast of Night (Tricephalos) Gnoster, Wisdom of Night (Sentient Pest) Maris, Fathom of Night (Augur) Adel, Baron of Night (Gaping Jaw) Caligo, Miasma of Night (Fissure in the Fog) Libra, Creature of Night (Equilibrious Beast) Fulghor, Champion of Nightglow (Darkdrift Knight) Heolstor the Nightlord (Night Aspect) Gladius, Beast of Night (Tricephalos) There isn’t much to say here because you can’t actually choose not to face Gladius, Beast of Night first. Tricephalos is the first expedition you have access to and the other expeditions won’t become available until you have defeated them. Use your first runs against this Nightlord to learn your way through Limveld. Gnoster, Wisdom of Night (Sentient Pest) It might sound contradictory to face a duo boss after beating Gladius, Beast of Night. Tracking two enemies is challenging and requires you to know the limits of your class. Even so, you should still pick Sentient Pest as your second expedition and fight Gnoster, Wisdom of Night. There are two main reasons for that. First, almost none of their attacks are capable of instantly killing you unless you’re under level 10. They don’t require you to have specific resistances or weapons either. If you’re playing a melee class, you just need to have patience until Gnoster gets closer and wait for a good window to attack.  The second reason is Gnoster’s weaknesses. Fire damage is extremely strong against it and it is easy to find a weapon that causes fire damage; throwing pots or Fire Grease, a consumable that makes your weapon cause elemental damage for a period of time. Maris, Fathom of Night (Augur) The only reason why we suggest tackling Maris, Fathom of Night (from the Augur expedition) after Gnoster is that this boss constantly applies sleep, dealing a lot of damage and leaving you exposed to follow-up attacks. Nevertheless, after enough matches, you’ll have obtained enough Relics, some of which can come with sleep resistance, removing a challenging factor of this fight.  When it comes to mechanics, there are just a couple of attacks to watch out for. Kill or dodge the small jellyfish the boss sends your way and run from the shining one, since it nukes a large area. Their main attacks are clearly telegraphed so there isn’t much to worry about on that front. Learn their patterns and defeat your third boss. Adel, Baron of Night (Gaping Jaw) Although the Gaping Jaw is the expedition Nightreign suggests tackling after Gladius, we’d suggest waiting to fight Adel, Baron of Night until you become more familiar with the game. Adel deals a lot of damage with their bite attack, which causes blood loss, a major threat if you don’t have a lot of health. In general, Adel’s attacks can really pin you down, but when the boss enters its second phase, it becomes a real nightmare. To make your life easier, you can use poison against the boss, but this is a type of elemental damage difficult to find weapons with or greases to apply. In other words, you will probably have to face the boss without relying on exploiting any weakness.  Caligo, Miasma of Night (Fissure in the Fog) Fighting a giant prehistoric dragon is never a good idea, but Caligo, Miasma of Night, the Nightlord you must fight in the Fissure in the Fog expedition, could be worse. To prepare for this fight, farm runes to reach level 12 or higher.  Once you know how to handle Caligo’s attacks, this gigantic dragon becomes less of a threat, but knowing the fight is not enough to survive. During the match, watch out for elemental resistances that might drop from minor bosses. Caligo’s attacks can inflict Frostbite and they cover large areas of the arena, so you’ll probably get hit by them. You also want to come with strong weapons capable of causing fire damage.  Libra, Creature of Night (Equilibrious Beast) The Equilibrious Beast expedition, where you must fight Libra, Creature of Night, is presents a notable step-up in difficulty compared to the previous fights. The most challenging aspect of this fight is in the preparation: Most of Libra’s attacks inflict madness and there aren’t many methods to prevent it. They are also weak to madness, but you’ll need to find the right incantation to cause that type of damage. Most importantly, there isn’t a safe spot to hide in this fight. Libra is fast, can teleport next to their target, and unleashes lengthy, quick sequences of attacks with their staff. Finding the right window to heal is difficult, because they can cast long-range area-of-effect attacks that hit many places in the arena. Beating Libra is a matter of farming, learning the fight, and luck. Fulghor, Champion of Nightglow (Darkdrift Knight) Among the bosses in Elden Ring Nightreign, very few are as punitive as Fulgor, Champion of Nightflow. This one-arm centaur is waiting for you in the Darkdrift Knight expedition and facing them will test all you’ve learned so far. Exploiting Fulghor’s weakness to lightning damage is a must, but the challenge here involves actually hitting them while avoiding their massive area attacks or quick thrusts.  You need to know how to farm well for this fight and memorize Fulghor’s attack pattern if you plan on completing this expedition. Fulghor causes a lot of damage, making you run out of flasks pretty fast if you don’t dodge at the right time. In addition, during the second phase, Fulghor becomes more brutal with a complex combination of short and long-distance attacks. Heolstor the Nightlord (Night Aspect) Just like Gladius had to go first, you can’t avoid saving the Night Aspect expedition for last since it is the last one you unlock and where you must fight Heolstor the Nightlord. Be sure to have sourced the best gear and achieved the highest level you can before facing this one.

html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd" A recording of Blackmagic Design’s livestream of its announcements for NAB 2025. You can see the new features in Da Vinci Resolve 20.0 at 2:13:20 in the video. Originally posted on 6 April 2025 for the beta, and updated for the stable release. Blackmagic Design has updated DaVinci Resolve, its free colour grading, editing and post-production software, and DaVinci Resolve Studio, its $295 commercial edition. DaVinci Resolve Studio 20.0 is a major release, adding over 100 tools, including a set of new AI-powered features for video editing and audio production, and is free to all users. Below, we’ve rounded up the key features for colorists and effects artists, including a new Chroma Warp tool, a new deep compositing toolset, and full support for multi-layer EXRs. The new Chroma Warp tool makes it possible to create looks with intuitive gesture controls. Color page: New Chroma Warp, plus updates to the Resolve FX Warper and Magic Mask For grading, the Color page‘s Color Warper gets a new Chroma Warp tool.It is designed to create looks intuitively, with users selecting a color in the viewer, and dragging to adjust its hue and saturation simultaneously. Among the existing tools, the Resolve FX Warper effect gets a new Curves Warp mode, which creates a custom polygon with spline points for finer control when warping images. Magic Mask, DaVinci Resolve’s AI-based feature for generating mattes, has been updated, and now operates in a single mode for both people and objects. Workflow is also now more precise, with users now placing points to make selections, then using the paint tools to include or exclude surrounding regions of the image. Another key AI-based feature, the Resolve FX Depth Map effect, which automatically generates depth mattes, has been updated to improve speed and accuracy. For color management across a pipeline, the software has been updated to ACES 2.0, and OpenColorIO is supported as Resolve FX. Effects artists get deep compositing support in the integrated Fusion compositing toolset. Fusion: new deep compositing toolset For compositing and effects work, the Fusion page gets support for deep compositing.Deep compositing, long supported in more VFX-focused apps like Nuke, makes use of depth data encoded in image formats like OpenEXR to control object visibility. It simplifies the process of generating and managing holdouts, and generates fewer visual artifacts, particularly when working with motion blur or environment fog. Deep images can now be viewed in the Fusion viewer or the 3D view, and there is a new set of nodes to merge, transform, resize, crop, recolor and generate holdouts. It is also possible to render deep images from the 3D environment, and export them as deep EXRs via the Fusion saver node. Fusion: new vector warping toolset, plus support for 180 VR and multi-layer workflows Other new features in the Fusion page include a new optical-flow-based vector warping toolset, for image patching and cleanup, and for effects like digital makeup.There is also a new 360° Dome Light for environment lighting, and support for 180 VR, with a number of key tools updated to support 180° workflows. Pipeline improvements include full multi-layer workflows, with all of Fusion’s nodes now able to access each layer within multi-layer EXR or PSD files. Fusion also now natively supports Cryptomatte ID matte data in EXR files. You can read about the new features on the Fusion Page in our story on Fusion Studio 20.0, the latest version of Blackmagic Design’s standalone compositing app, in which they also feature. IntelliScript automatically generates an edit timeline matching a user-provided script. Other toolsets: lots of new AI features for video editing and audio production DaVinci Resolve Studio 20.0 also features a lot of new AI features powered by the software’s Neural Engine, although primarily in the video editing and audio production toolsets.The Cut and Edit pages get new AI tools for automatically creating edit timelines matching a user-provided script; generating animated subtitles; editing or extending music to match clip length; and matching tone, level and reverberance for dialogue. There are also new tools for recording new voiceovers during editing to match an edit. Workflow improvements include a dedicated curve view for keyframe editing; plus a new MultiText tool and updates to the Text+ tool for better control of the layout of on-screen text. For audio post work, the Fairlight page gets new AI features for removing silences from raw footage, and automatically balancing an audio mix. We don’t cover video or audio editing on CG Channel, but you can find a complete list of changes via the links at the foot of the story. Codec and format support Other key changes include native support for ProRes encoding on Windows and Linux systems as well as macOS.MV-HEVC encoding is now supported on systems with NVIDIA GPUs, and H.265 4:2:2 encoding and decoding are GPU-accelerated on NVIDIA’s new Blackwell GPUs. Again, you can find a full list of changes to codec and platform support via the links at the foot of the story. Upcoming features include generative AI-based background extension. Future updates: new toolsets for immersive video and AI background generation Blackmagic Design also announced two upcoming features not present in the initial release.Artists creating mixed reality content will get a new toolset for ingesting, editing and delivering immersive video for Apple’s Vision Pro headset. There will also be a new generative AI feature, Resolve FX AI Set Extender, available via Blackmagic Cloud. More details will be announced later this year, but Blackmagic says that it will enable users to generate new backgrounds for shots by entering simple text prompts. The video above shows a range of use cases, including extending or adding objects to existing footage, and generating a complete new background behind a foreground object. Price, system requirements and release date DaVinci Resolve 20.0 and DaVinci Resolve Studio 20.0 are for Windows 10+, Rocky Linux 8.6, and macOS 14.0+. The updates are free to existing users.New perpetual licenses of the base edition are also free. The Studio edition, which adds AI features, stereoscopic 3D tools, and collaboration features, costs $295, following a temporary increase in the US following the introduction of new tariffs.

html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd" Boris FX has begun its 2025 updates to Silhouette, its roto and paint software.Silhouette 2025 adds new AI tools for refining mattes, generating depth maps and fixing glitches in video, and a new 3D Scene node for importing scenes with tracked 3D cameras. A VFX-industry standard tool for rotoscoping and roto paint work First released 20 years ago, and acquired by Boris FX in 2019, Silhouette is a rotoscoping and paint tool.The software is widely used in production for movie and broadcast visual effects, winning both a Scientific and Technical Academy Award and Engineering Emmy Award in 2019. As well as the original standalone edition, Silhouette is available as a plugin, making the toolset available inside Adobe software and OFX-compatible apps like Nuke and DaVinci Resolve. New AI tools for refining mattes, generating depth maps, and fixing glitches Silhouette 2025 introduces new AI-based features for automating common tasks.The 2024 releases added an AI-based matte workflow, with the Mask ML node automatically generating a mask for a significant object – like a person or animal – in a frame of video, and Matte Assist ML propagating it throughout the rest of the footage. They are now joined by Matte Refine ML, a new node for processing hard-edge mattes into “natural, detailed selections”, creating better results when isolating hair or fur. In addition, new Depth Map ML and Frame Fixer ML tools generate depth maps from footage, and semi-automatically fix artifacts like scratches, camera flashes, or dropped frames. You can read more about them in our story on Continuum 2025.5, Silhouette’s sibling tool. New 3D Scene node lets users work with tracked 3D cameras Other new features in Silhouette 2025 include the new 3D environment.The 3D Scene node makes it possible to load a scene with a tracked 3D camera in FBX or Alembic format, or to perform a 3D track using Mocha Pro or SynthEyes. It is then possible to place cards in 3D space and paint directly on them in the viewer, while a new Unproject/Reproject node allows for fuller composites. Other new features When using a PowerMesh from Silhouette’s Mocha module to track deforming organic surfaces, it is now possible to paint on undistorted frames using a new PowerMesh Morph node.In addition, it is now possible to merge custom node setups into a single Compound node, which can be reused between projects or shared with collaborators. Prices up since the previous release The price of the software has also risen since Silhouette 2024.5, although the increases aren’t as large as with some of Boris FX’s other recent product updates.For the standalone edition, the price of perpetual licenses rise by $200, to $2,195. Subscriptions rise by $15/month, to $165/month, or by $80/year, to $875/year. For the plugin edition, the price of perpetual licenses rise by $100, to $1,195. Subscriptions rise by $3/month, to $103/month, or by $50/year, to $545/year. Price and system requirements Silhouette 2025 is available as a standalone tool for Windows 10+, Linux and macOS 12.0+, and as a plugin for Adobe software and OFX-compatible tools like Nuke.Perpetual licences of the standalone cost $2,195; the plugin costs $1,195.

MegaSackman Member Oct 27, 2017 20,786 Argentina I've noticed many streams where all the lumina and overall builds went towards three members, or even just one and the rest were support. I've personally kept everything at the same lvl at all times, same lumina distribuition, same effort on builds (except for the last super boss that I "cheesed" with Maelle). When one or two characters got underleveled they were brought to the main team until they catched up. How did you play it?  Son of Sparda "This guy are sick" says The Wise Ones Member Oct 25, 2017 17,334 Tried to balance them as much as I could for the majority of the game. But in the end Maelle got most of the stuff since she is pretty OP. I think Verso got the least amount of stuff in the end tho. Just didn't really use them that much.  SimplePorter1 Member Dec 3, 2024 115 Currently in act 3 and pausing the main story to go around the map and side-quest as much as possible since for once in a game side questing does not feel like a chore. I have three members that are my main lineup but I keep everyone as balanced as possible, many times I won battles thanks to my reserve duo  Patitoloco Member Oct 27, 2017 28,279 Everything extremely balanced. Using the entire party worked wonders for many fights.   Agent Icebeezy Member Oct 27, 2017 2,898 MegaSackman said: I've noticed many streams where all the lumina and overall builds went towards three members, or even just one and the rest were support.

I'm currently still playing and my distribution is the same to yours. I've started to look at builds for beating some of the overpowered enemies in the game. My starting three is Verso, Sciel and Lune. Monoco and Maelle if they die. I have Maelle on the second team, even though she's currently the second strongest person I have, for balance.   Khanimus Avenger Oct 25, 2017 46,600 Greater Vancouver I just got my last party member. I already hadn't been using Sciel very much and now that I've got this new person, I'm wondering how I should mix it up.   Ravelle Member Oct 31, 2017 20,414 everyone leveled and specced because dugout gang came in clutch and saved my bacon multiple times.   Bran Member Oct 25, 2017 562 Leveling was an even split between Agility and Vitality until both got to 99. At that point, Recoat then dump into the stats for everyone's best weapons. Lumina points were distributed evenly among each character. It was super useful having everyone set up to fight because some characters work better for certain situations.  EduBRK Member Oct 30, 2017 999 Brazil Main party was Verso, Maelle and Monoco, but everyone was equal leveled. Stats: Agility up till 99, then luck 99, then might. All luminas distributed equally.  Lotus One Winged Slayer Member Oct 25, 2017 124,379 Khanimus said: I just got my last party member.

Don't sleep on Sciel  Kill3r7 Member Oct 25, 2017 29,150 Everything balanced. Especially since they are all useful.   GameAddict411 Member Oct 26, 2017 10,155 I have 3 characters maxed out and two are at level 96 so not horrible.   hydruxo ▲ Legend ▲ Member Oct 25, 2017 22,775 Maelle >>> Verso > Lune >>> Sciel > Monoco But later on you get way more lumina so I balanced them out closer  Adryuu Master of the Wind Member Oct 27, 2017 6,525 Voted and finished the game equally balanced over all characters. But now I'm doing endgame things after seeing credits and I've successfully done a Lune killing machine build with over 400 lumina points that destroyed all endless tower almost by herself. Also the Flying Manor end boss was finally managed by her solo (with Roulette lol). Now I'm going for the Maelle build just for the well known "hardest boss" but honestly if it takes too much work I may just watch the remaining journal in youtube and call it a day. Lune was entirely my build and while the things I'm seeing for Maelle are similar, it's not the same and not mine, so it's ok to just quit here, especially as there's not much more game for me. I was just doing this while postponing starting a new game but that time has come now.  Khanimus Avenger Oct 25, 2017 46,600 Greater Vancouver Lotus said: Don't sleep on Sciel Click to expand... Click to shrink... I used her a bit up until the big ending of Act 1. Since then, it'd been mostly Lune and Maelle backing me up.   Ouroboros Member Oct 27, 2017 16,219 focused on 3 main. towards endgame I worked on the backup 2 when Expedition 33 took their last stand (fucking love this game's details like that)   YozoraXV Member Oct 30, 2017 3,807 EduBRK said: Main party was Verso, Maelle and Monoco, but everyone was equal leveled.

Click to shrink... Agility is one thing, but I love how this is an RPG where everyone is a crit warrior and you're just better off tailoring towards that lol  BennyWhatever Member Oct 27, 2017 5,524 US Maelle, Verso, Lune only. I gave nothing to Sciel and Monoco lol. Distributed all Lumina points equally among the 3 mains. I basically had my end-game weapons about 10 hours in and would max those out and build around them. I did replace one or two with post-game weapons. Stat distribution for every levelup was 2 Vitality (until 99) then 1 in whatever the weapon stats were.  NightShift Member Oct 25, 2017 10,353 Australia I liked playing as everybody so I tried to keep it even but... yeah, Maelle and Verso were definitely above the rest most of the time.   Khanimus Avenger Oct 25, 2017 46,600 Greater Vancouver Lotus said: I was ready to not engage with her because it felt too annoying, but that one weapon she gets that sets her up with 10 foretell on any sun-based move made me see the vision lol Click to expand...

Sometimes I swap Verso or Sciel with Lune.   Lotus One Winged Slayer Member Oct 25, 2017 124,379 Khanimus said: Oh I got that weapon and absolutely used it a ton with her, she just fell out of conversation with the story turn.

I was using her before said turn because she was the first to reach the Act 1 damage cap 🤣 Only got a little into Act 2 though, so still plenty of story to go through  Agni Kai Member Nov 2, 2017 10,029 I went with Maelle, Lune, and Sciel for my main party. I used Monoco occasionally because he's groovy as fuck. Verso got the scraps.  Kill3r7 Member Oct 25, 2017 29,150 Akiba756 said: Everyone but (act 1 spoilers) Gustave, I kept forcing myself to use him when I noticed his damage output was falling behind everyone else, my thought was "I hope the rest of his skill tree opens up soon, and he gets weapons with perks" Click to expand... Click to shrink... Interesting because Gustave's overcharge is rather good at dps but he is a support character priming enemies for the rest of the team to shine. Maelle is ridiculously OP pretty early on, as long as you get good at counterattacking. Sciel is the best support from Act 2 onward.  TripleBee Prophet of Truth Member Oct 30, 2017 7,536 Canada Kept it pretty balanced.   Yurei Member Feb 28, 2023 1,321 For most of the game I used Sciel, Lune, Verso then towards the end I went with a Break build using Sciel, Verso and Monoco. I never switched out characters so it took a sec to get Monoco up to Sciel and Vero's level lol.  Renteka-Bond Chicken Chaser Member Dec 28, 2017 6,071 Clearwater, Florida Balanced for most of the game, but my Primary party was Lune / Sciel / Monoco, with Lune being my "Main" and getting the lion's share of Lumina in the endgame. Went with a fun Heal-Buff / DOT Nuke Team by basically using Typhoon as an AP / Buff Battery for the Squad, then Stacking Storm Caller and Terraquake for Passive Damage, then Elemental Genesis and Hellfire for big Damage nukes. Was a lot of fun having access to so much damage per turn for big waves and required a bit of Stain management to keep me awake.  watching alice Member Oct 5, 2024 48 Everyone leveled the same way until act 3 20 vit 45 agility 35 luck no points in other stats. When I got into act 3 and I had good weapons I respect-ed basing stats on weapons' scalings  Adryuu Master of the Wind Member Oct 27, 2017 6,525 Agni Kai said: I used Monoco occasionally because he's groovy as fuck. Click to expand... Click to shrink... Owowow!  NabiscoFelt One Winged Slayer Member Aug 15, 2019 8,691 I always try to level party members equally in RPGs Though yeah Maelle did end up getting a couple extra Lumina points towards the end of the game (like 10 ahead of the rest)  NotVeryFriendly Member Oct 27, 2017 4,228 I was mainly balanced, with the exception that I gave Maelle got 20/30 more Lumina points than the rest of the cast. My primary characters were Luna, Maelle, Monoco (I had wanted to use Verso instead of Monoco, but the risk of losing any missable skills forced me to use Monoco), with Verso and Sciel as my backup. My backup team were at a slightly lower level then my primary characters. For most of the game, I primarily levelled Vitality, Agility, and Luck, and ignored the other stats.  Nameless Member Oct 25, 2017 17,283 Maelle, Lune, and Sciel split everything more or less evenly(some slight, occasional build/situational favoritism aside). The others are basically ignored. I don't even bring in the bench players when the A-Team falls.   Sephiroth Member Oct 26, 2017 7,164 All you need is Maelle   dralla Member Oct 27, 2017 3,336 I used all the characters and leveled them up equally. Stat distribution was based on weapon scaling. You get plenty of re-spec items so changing weapons and stats was never an issue.   Sirank Member Oct 27, 2017 1,620 By the end I had Maelle and Lune 500+ lumina. Monoco was around 280. Really sorry Sciel and GustaveVerso, they only had 120ish.   Diogo Arez One Winged Slayer Member Oct 20, 2020 20,339 All in on Maelle, Verso and Lune, the rest got the leftover scraps   Prinny Member Oct 25, 2017 277 Moon, Clive, Maelle only.

Create energy effects using a robust CG generalist approach In the workshop, Harrison sets out his entire workflow for creating electricity and lightning effects using Houdini, following a professional CG generalist approach.The training takes viewers through the process step by step, from project organization to final-frame rendering, integrating a custom character into a Houdini effects setup. Harrison begins by setting out how to prepare character models and animation for import into Houdini, and provides simple workarounds for rigging characters in Maya. Moving to Houdini, he then demonstrates how to set up materials and shaders for the Mantra render engine, then focuses on creating the lightning effects. Having set out fundamental concepts and approaches to creating electricity, Harrison moves on more advanced techniques to create secondary and tertiary effects elements, discussing how to use particle and Pyro simulations to add detail to the scene. The final chapters of the workshop cover how to convert meshes into renderable light geometry, how to create custom AOVs in Mantra, and how to use those render passes to composite the final shots in Nuke. As well as the training videos, viewers of the workshop can download Harrison’s Alembic animation cache. The workshop also uses Ryan Reos’s Spartan Hoplite character and Truong’s inexpensive Mike Freeman rig. About the artist Josh Harrison is a freelance Senior FX Artist and Senior 3D Generalist. He began his career in film at Luma Pictures, working on movies including Godzilla vs. Kong.He them moved into TV and commercials at MPC and The Mill, working on series including American Horror Story and House of the Dragon. Pricing and availability Lightning & Electricity Effects is available via a subscription to The Gnomon Workshop, which provides access to over 300 tutorials.Subscriptions cost $57/month or $519/year. Free trials are available.

html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd" Boris FX has released Continuum 2025.5, the latest version of its set of effects plugins for compositing and editing software.The update adds an AI-based masking and tracking system, new AI tools for generating depth and ST maps and fixing bad frames, and updates Particle Illusion, Title Studio and the FX Editor. The prices of both perpetual licenses and subscriptions to Continuum have also risen since the previous release, particularly for OFX host applications like DaVinci Resolve and Nuke. More new AI-based tools for common editing and compositing tasks Boris FX began to add AI features to Continuum in its 2024 releases, beginning with machine learning-based filters for denoising, upresing and retiming video.In Continuum 2025.0, they were joined by machine-learning-based filters for generating motion blur, and obscuring car license plates in footage. New AI-based mask-generation and tracking system To that, Continuum 2025.5 adds the new AI-based object masking and tracking toolset from Mocha, Boris FX’s planar tracking software, the core tech from which is integrated into Sapphire.The Object Brush ML feature makes it possible to isolate objects in a single frame of footage simply by clicking inside them, with Continuum automatically generating a corresponding mask. The selection can be refined by selecting extra parts of the image to include or exclude, or by painting areas in or out manually. The Matte Assist ML feature automatically propagates a mask throughout a shot, tracking the object selected and generating animated mattes matching its changing outline. New AI tools for generating depth and ST maps, and fixing glitches in footage The release also adds three other new AI tools: BCC+ Depth Map ML, BCC+ ST Map, and BCC+ Frame Fixer ML.BCC+ Depth Map ML automatically generates depth maps from video footage, based on objects’ distance from the camera, making it easier to add fog and haze, or fake rack focus. Users have a choice of two ML models, one tuned for performance, and one for detail. BCC+ ST Map generates ST Maps, often used to encode lens distortion data, making it easier to distort or undistort video footage, or to convert it from rectilinear to 360° formats. BCC+ Frame Fixer ML automatically fixes ‘bad’ frames in footage: for example, those with scratches or tape degradation, or with flash photography changing the lighting of the subject. You have to identify the bad frames manually, but processing is automatic. According to Boris FX, the filter can also be used to fix dropped frames, and even to hide jump cuts. Updates to Witness Protection ML and Retimer ML Updates to existing AI tools include a Smoothing Level control for the BCC+ Witness Protection ML filter, used to obscure people’s faces automatically in source footage.BCC+ Retimer ML now supports retiming footage with variable frame rates, although only in Adobe host apps. The AI models used by the tools also now load faster on first use in a work session. Improvements to the FX Editor, Particle Illusion and Title Generator Of the non-AI features, the FX Editor, for editing effects and presets, gets performance and workflow improvements, with “2x speed improvements” when playing back 4K footage. Particle generator Particle Illusion gets workflow improvements including the option to save camera animation presets, and an updated emitter library. The 8,000 x 8,000px limit in 3D titling plugin Title Studio has been removed, making it possible to work up to the maximum resolution supported by the host application. There are also over 100 new presets for filters, and support for a “full set” of blend modes in BCC+ Vignette. Prices up, particularly for OFX licenses Boris FX has also raised the price of the plugins since the release of Continuum 2025.0.The software is priced according to host application, so the exact figures vary, but for After Effects and Premiere Pro, the cost of a perpetual license rises by $100, to $1,095. For OFX applications, including DaVinci Resolve and Nuke, the cost of a perpetual license rises by $400, also to $1,095. For all available hosts, the price rises by $200, to $2,195. The price of subscriptions is also up, with After Effects and Premiere Pro subscriptions rising by $11/month, to $48/month; and by $30/year, to $325/year. OFX subscriptions rise by $23/month, to $48/month; and by $130/year, to $325/year. For all hosts, subscriptions rise by $25/month, to $112/month, and by $70/year, to $765/year. Pricing and system requirements Continuum 2025.5 is compatible with a range of compositing and editing software, including After Effects, DaVinci Resolve and Nuke, on Windows 10+ or macOS 10.15+.It is priced according to host application, with new perpetual licences costing from $365 to $2,195. Subscriptions cost from $215/year to $765/year.
