OpenDefocus

The Magic Defocus project has moved to Open Defocus as an OSS project.

It seems the current target is Nuke, but I’m really curious.

My weekend project :upside_down_face:
Porting OpenDefocus to OFX - OpenDefocus now working with Flame.

I published the Linux binary and source code here:

There is only a Linux binary, but I think you can compile and build on macOS as well.

Please read the OpenDefocus document and the README_OFX.md file carefully before trying:

  • The OFX port aims to be a faithful reproduction of the original NUKE NDK version.
  • Upstream bugs or unimplemented features are preserved as-is — the OFX side does not independently fix or extend upstream behavior.

Please do not use this plugin in your important projects until you have completed sufficient testing in your environment.

I did UAT with Nuke and Flame. NOT YET TESTED WITH ANY OTHER HOST APPS.

Have fun!

This looks really interesting. Any chance of Fusion OFX by any chance? Thanks.

I tested it with versions 2025.2.5 and 2026.2.2. However, I think it should work with any version of Flame that supports OFX.

sorry, some ppl asked me where’s the download link.
The download link is collapsed. Please open “Asset” to find linux binary.

@Kruno
I quickly checked with DaVinci Resolve Fusion page(Re-Fusion) and Fusion Studio.
Available in Re-Fusion but Fusion Studio had got an error of OFX loading. I have no idea why this error comes… I need some more study around Fusion Studio.
