Magnific, now inside Nuke
Magnific docks into Nuke as a native pane. Select a node, describe what you want, and get images, video, mattes, depth and PBR passes that land straight back in your script as Read nodes. Same account and credits you use on magnific.com.
Nuke 15 or later · You'll need an active internet connection while generating.
Stay in your flow. We'll meet you there.
No plates to export, no browser tab to babysit. Magnific docks as a native Nuke pane, so every generation starts from the node you have selected and comes back into the script you are already working on.
Install in 3 steps
Download the installer for your system, run it, and find Magnific inside Nuke.
Nuke plugin (.zip)
- 1Download the .zip and unzip it. One file for Windows, macOS and Linux, for Nuke 15 or later.
- 2Run install.py from the unzipped folder with any Python 3. It copies Magnific into your ~/.nuke folder and adds two lines to its menu.py, per user and with no admin rights.
- 3Restart Nuke. Open Magnific > Open panel, sign in through your browser, and start creating.
Nuke 15 or later · You'll need a Magnific account and an active internet connection while generating.
Magnific's creative engine, in your node graph
Image Generator
Generate from a prompt, or from the node you have selected: Magnific renders it at the current frame and uses it as the reference.
Video Generator
Generate, extend, modify or upscale a clip over the frame range you choose. It starts from the node's own range.
Masks & Passes
Pull a mask, a depth map or PBR maps from any node. Each pass arrives as its own Read node.
Retouch & Remove Background
Retouch a region from a Roto in your node graph, or pull a clean matte from footage without a green screen.
Upscale & Relight
Push a frame or a clip to a higher resolution, relight it, reframe it or replace its background, without leaving Nuke.
Magnific Nodes
Add Upscale, Remove Background, Depth, Relight and other Magnific nodes from the Nodes toolbar or the Tab search. The result lives inside the node, so a saved script renders without the plugin.
Feed & Stock
Browse your creations and search stock from the pane, and bring any result into the script as a Read node.
More than a pane. A studio in your node graph.
- Stock search, in the pane
- Your creations feed, in Nuke
- Your credit balance, always visible
Pick your editor, start creating
Magnific runs natively in the editors you already use.
FAQs
- Nuke 15 or later, on Windows, macOS and Linux. Nuke 15 is the first release with the Python version the plugin needs, so Nuke 13 and 14 are not supported. Nuke Indie and Nuke Non-commercial run it too, within their own scripting limits.
- A Magnific menu is added to Nuke's menu bar: use Magnific > Open panel to dock the pane next to Properties. The Magnific nodes are in the Nodes toolbar and the Tab search, and the Node Graph's right-click menu has a Magnific submenu.
- Yes. Sign in from the panel with your existing Magnific account, or create one for free at magnific.com.
- Yes—the plugin runs on the same credits as the web platform. Everything you generate is also saved to your Magnific history. Plugins always consume credits from your account, even if you have a plan with unlimited features.
- Yes, you'll need an active internet connection while generating. Results come back as Read nodes placed under the node you started from, in a single undo step, with the files saved in ~/.nuke/magnific/downloads unless you pick another folder in Settings. Results are 8-bit sRGB, so values above 1.0 are clipped.
- Restart Nuke after installing: the plugin loads at startup. Check that ~/.nuke/menu.py contains the two lines the installer adds (import magnific_nuke and magnific_nuke.register()), and that you are on Nuke 15 or later, since the plugin does not load on older releases.
- Yes. Commercial use is included on paid plans, under the same terms as content generated on magnific.com.
- Image generation, retouching from a Roto mask, upscaling, relighting, reframing and background removal; masks, depth maps and PBR passes; and video generation, upscaling, extending, relighting and matting over a frame range. The same generative engine you use on magnific.com, inside Nuke.
