| While Googling 2D animation software, I just spotted that CreaToon www.creatoon.com has been made free. CreaToon is a realtime bit-map based cut-out animation software for Windows, that used to cost around $250-400 if I remember correctly. It's a bit like Anim Studio (previously known as Moho), but more bitmap based. Potentially a great tool for creating animated sprites, without drawing every frame. Cheers, Ragnar |

| Thanks for the heads up. You just made my night. |

| Oh goodie :) Must check this out. Has anyone here used the software before? How does it compare to Moho? Thanks for posting this ragtag. Jason. |

| Don't know exactly how it compares to Moho (now Anime Studio). Moho is mostly vector based, but does support bitmaps. While CreaToon is mostly bitmap based, but supports vectors now. :) I have only looked a little at both. I found Moho to be very slow on my iBook, even with rather simple scenes. While CreaToon as far as I know, uses OpenGL to draw everything, so was very fast (on my old Windows box). There is a demo of Moho/Anime Studio here http://downloads.e-frontier.com/us/user/anime_studio_50_demo_product_23929 so you can compare them. Of course, in price CreaToon wins hands down. :) |
