Yanobox Storm earns its place in the toolfarm library for its fully procedural approach: a self-contained GPU rendering engine that builds 3D geometry, noise, and shaders without importing external models or textures.
Yanobox Storm is a procedural 3D generator that produces detailed organic forms and evolving 3D surfaces with real-time animation and shading. It runs in After Effects, Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve, and requires Noise Industries FxFactory to operate. Rather than importing 3D models or textures, Storm is built around a self-contained rendering engine where everything comes to life on the GPU, allowing fast interaction with millions of shaded polygons.
Designs start from parametric primitives shaped by built-in 3D fractal noise. Storm includes several noise types, including 3D fractal, directional, curly, ridged, and a hair simulation mode for spikes and extrusions. Falloff effectors control surface displacement through planar or spherical zones, adding twisting and deformation.
Shading offers styled or photorealistic materials with volumetric color gradients, directional lighting, reflection, refraction, fresnel, and fog. Temperature-based color ramps generate heat and incandescent effects, while classic and additive blending expands transparent phenomena. An immersive environment uses embedded maps or imported equirectangular images and VR videos to build a 360° skybox.
Yanobox Storm is best for editors and motion designers looking for fast solutions to produce 3D visuals.
Yanobox Storm is completely free to download and use.
Yanobox Storm works in After Effects, Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve, alongside Final Cut Pro X and Motion. It runs on both Apple Silicon and Intel processors. Because the plugin relies on Noise Industries FxFactory to operate, its system requirements match those of FxFactory. For the current supported versions of each host application, refer to the FxFactory page, which lists updated system requirements for both the free and paid editions.
Yanobox Storm requires Noise Industries FxFactory, available as a free download, which acts as the host framework for the plugin. There is also FxFactory Pro, a paid version sharing the same system requirements as the free one. For updated requirements, refer to the FxFactory page. Beyond that, Storm renders everything on the GPU and does not need imported 3D models or textures, since it is built around a self-contained rendering engine.
Yanobox Storm runs on Macs with both Apple Silicon and Intel processors. Its exact system requirements are tied to Noise Industries FxFactory, the framework it depends on, so the FxFactory page is where you'll find the up-to-date specifications. FxFactory Pro carries the same system requirements as the free version, meaning the choice between them does not change what hardware you need. Confirm the details on the FxFactory page before installing.
Yanobox Storm is listed as free in this catalog. Note that it requires Noise Industries FxFactory to run, which itself is a free download, while FxFactory Pro is a paid version with the same system requirements. For current licensing terms and any details on the free and paid FxFactory editions, check the developer's page directly, as licensing arrangements can change over time.
Yanobox Storm does not require importing 3D models or textures. It is built around a self-contained rendering engine, so geometry, noise, and shading are generated inside the plugin and come to life on the GPU. Designs begin from parametric primitives that you shape with fractal noise, falloff effectors, and shaders. This procedural approach lets the GPU handle fast interaction with millions of shaded polygons directly inside your editing or compositing application.
