AXYZ design releases Anima 2, the definitive tool to populate your ArchVIZ scenes Introducing a completely revamped version of the crowd simulation software for populating scenes, aimed at fulfilling the needs of the architectural visualization industry.
Anima 2 has been designed for rapid simulation of large crowds while retaining the versatility and artistic freedom that users need. Nearly every aspect of an animation can be controlled, and for the first time it is now possible to import and use custom characters and motions. REWRITTEN FROM THE GROUND UP ARTIST FRIENDLY RAPID SCENE POPULATION USE ANY ASSETS MOTION AND POSE EDITOR REALISTIC INTERACTION COMPLETE CONTROL WALKWAY TOOLS RAMPS, STAIRS, ESCALATORS, AND MOVING WALKWAYS Home Page - https://secure.axyz-design.com/anima-crowd-simulation-software-home Anima 2 highlights include:
Anima 2 is a completely new application, rewritten from scratch, and improved in every way.
With a completely new WYSIWYG editor, Anima 2 makes crowd simulation simple. It’s as easy as drawing a path, adding actors and hitting play.
Whether a project requires one thousand characters or just one, Anima can spawn and simulate crowds of any size while adding subtle variations in textures and motions for incredibly realistic animations.
Users are not limited to the bundled content. Using Animas editing tools it’s easy to import and use 3rd party rigged characters and motion capture data.
Fine-tune characters and motion clips with the visual pose edit or, providing the ability to adjust the rotation of every joint. Also process, edit and loop motion clips using easy-to-understand tools.
Anima creates natural looking crowd simulations using a sophisticated AI brain to anticipate collisions between actors and blend flawlessly between motion clips.
Precise control is possible when it is needed. Each actor is fully editable, providing complete control to direct the perfect animation.
New walkway tools provide sophisticated controls to direct walking, running and other locomotion animations. Advanced settings give users the power to control distribution, spacing, direction, clustering, and the ability to change the width of the path at any point.
Use Anima to add actors that walk, run, navigate slopes, ride escalators, tackle moving walkways and climb stairs realistically. Whatever a scene’s topology, characters can explore every corner.
