Cascadeur, the AI-powered animation tool, has released its latest update, Cascadeur 2024.3, bringing an array of exciting features aimed at enhancing animation realism and control. This update is poised to become a game-changer for animators and developers alike.
What’s New in Cascadeur 2024.3?
🌀 Ragdoll Physics: Your characters can now literally bump into stuff—and it looks real. They react to collisions like champs, and you can tweak the physics till it’s chef’s-kiss perfect.
🌊 Secondary Motion Enhancements: Animations are smoother than your morning coffee, with smarter behavior that even gets collisions. No more janky movements.
🔗 Unreal Engine LiveLink: Work smarter, not harder. Sync Cascadeur with Unreal Engine in real time and watch your workflow go turbo mode.
⏩ One-Click Auto Interpolation: Speed-run your animation process with quick interpolations. Save time and still look like a pro.
📸 Bonus Goodies: New camera settings, support for negative timeline values, pinning for object behaviors, and a glow-up on the Start Menu.
Launched in 2019, Cascadeur has been all about making life easier for artists who want pro-level animations without wrestling with complicated software. And this update? Total glow-up. Let’s break it down:
Here’s the deal:
- If you’re making less than $100K/year, you can snag an Indie subscription for $99/year.
- The Pro plan is $49/month or $399/year if you need all the bells and whistles. Bonus: Both are rent-to-own, so you get a forever license after a year.
- Just wanna try it out? There’s a free edition, but heads up—it’s for non-commercial use and saves animations in a .casc format that doesn’t play nice with other apps.
What Do I Need to Run It?
Cascadeur 2024.3 works on Windows 10+, Ubuntu 20.04+ Linux, and macOS 13.3+. Basically, if your system isn’t ancient, you’re good.
So, creators and developers, grab your rigs and get animating. Cascadeur 2024.3 is here to make you look like the animation god you always knew you were. 😎
