good tool more for ArchViz users
I was in the beta and its quick and easy, yet very simple.. I really hope they make it possible for people to add their own models, skeletons and motion-loops to this. If so they will take all marked from plugins like Anima, because they try to force you to buy their models and also update motions etc very rarely.
2014 is looking decent so far.
very good work, but:
what about the stairs?
the tool seems don’t stick to the floor?
I played around with the beta. Very easy to use, but it doesn’t seem robust enough. Hopefully, they made this system very flexible.
