AXYZ design has announced the release of anima 5.1, the latest version of its crowd simulation software.
With anima 5.1, users can duplicate and modify subscription assets in their projects, with the original asset needing to be installed and available for use of the modified resource. Animated thumbnails for assets from the online store have been added for easier preview and users can now adjust the size of the thumbnails in the actor panel and use the integrated search engine from the online store for asset discovery.
Additionally, anima 5.1 offers a new reset time slider to set the time for actors to be teleported back to the start of a path, and a new toggle to show or hide passwords in the sign-in dialog. The search engine from the original store has been integrated into the actor panel, project packing performance has been improved has been improved for sending to render farms. The plugins can now display a special model to indicate an access error when reading from 4D resources.
The 3ds Max Plugin in anima 5.1 allows duplicated drop characters to be a copy instead of an instance only, with improved compatibility of the 4D models with Chaos Vantage. It also includes support for 3dsMax 2024. Support for Maya 2024 has been added in the Maya Plugin.

What’s happening to this site? Why are there ads plastered everywhere now? Even between the articles text? Please find another way to monetize maybe patreon? I’d even dondate. The amount of ads is getting ridiculous.
Apologies, we just switched ad servers and it went a bit crazy and added adverts everywhere. We’ve been able to disable the ads in the content now (might take a while to roll out though), and we’ll be fine tuning the others over the next few days. CGPress is pretty much a passion project at this point, we’d love to monetise without ads, but our past experiments with Patreon weren’t successful unfortunately.
CGPress is an awesome website. The news and content has been done really well. Definitely wouldn’t mind the adss provide some financial support to run the site.
Stop complaining nicky boy, they need the ads i get more ads running a regular google search than i do here, its more important for cgpress to keep alive than to have ads removed for the convenience. Damn i dont getbhow people expect things to just be free oh and f*k patreon.
You might not have seen it but for a hour or so there were ads plastered everywhere on the site looked like a collage of ads. Anyway its been fixed now. 🙂 Big thanks to CGPress for keeping up the project!
Absolutely love CG Press!
Really don’t mind the ads as long as it helps to pay the bills.
CGPress Team, just keep up doing your great editorials, everything is ok, thank you!
