Which Krokodove tools are in DaVinci Resolve 21?
DaVinci Resolve 21 genuinely integrates a large Krokodove set directly into Fusion and Edit Effects. But saying that every historical Krokodove tool was copied into Resolve would go beyond the documentation. Blackmagic uses several different counts, while the brief New Features Guide explicitly names 61 tools and modifiers. This page separates those scopes and shows what is actually confirmed.

The New Features Guide describes the integration more broadly as more than a hundred motion-graphics effects and tools.
61

The number of concrete tools and modifiers named in the guide's brief Fusion table.
Why 70+, 100+ and 61 are different scopes
70+ refers to “new graphics” on the Resolve 21 product page. 100+ is the broader New Features Guide wording for motion-graphics effects and tools. 61 is not presented as the total library size; it is the count of concrete names in the guide's brief table.
The careful wording is: Resolve 21 integrates a large Krokodove toolset; Blackmagic's brief guide explicitly documents 61 tools and modifiers across 10 groups, without stating that those 61 entries represent the entire historical Krokodove collection.
Confirmed structure
10 Krokodove groups shown in the Resolve 21 guide
These are the groups we use when tagging and linking encyclopedia pages. A matching name alone is not enough to label an older or unrelated Fusion tool as Krokodove.
3D
1Procedural 3D duplication with image-driven control over transforms and timing.
Image Tools
14The broadest Krokodove group: structural image processing, fragmentation, stylization, edge extension and procedural line work.
Image Color Tools
5Focused color and luminance operations: replacement, range isolation and palette remapping.
Image Create Tools
5Procedural sources for backgrounds, textures, lines, tiling and concentric graphics.
Image Pixel Tools
15Pixel transforms, temporal blending, edge cleanup, duplication, extrusion, looping and pixel sorting.
Image Position Tools
1Tools that derive and manipulate spatial structure from image content.
Image Vector Tools
1Inspection and visualization of motion-vector data.
Image Warp Tools
12A broad family of directed and procedural warps, often reducing the manual setup needed with generic Transform and Displace chains.
Modifiers
3Parameter-behavior generators rather than image effects: rhythm, palette switching and controlled randomness.
Text Modifiers
4Ways to generate and animate text without long expression chains or manual per-frame work.
What changes for users
Resolve 21 does not require the old external plug-in install for the integrated set
Blackmagic titles the feature “Krokodove Toolset Integrated into Fusion and Edit Effects.” The Resolve 21 workflow starts with the current application itself, not an old ZIP, Reactor package or legacy Krokodove binary.
Installation and legacy versions →What we do not claim
Resolve 21 integration does not prove every historical Krokodove tool was ported one-for-one
The original Krokodove collection evolved for more than 20 years and had its own legacy v8.30 branch. Blackmagic describes an integrated toolset, but does not publish a statement that every historical external tool was transferred unchanged. We keep those two layers separate.

Version status and documentation
The version matrix and documented-tool list in this cluster are grounded in Blackmagic Design's Resolve 21 documentation and the original Krokodove developer page. We distinguish Blackmagic's over-70-graphics product wording, its more-than-100 effects-and-tools guide wording, and the 61 tools explicitly named in the brief guide table. The legacy external plug-in is kept separate from the Resolve 21 integration.
