Animation Plugin Recommendations

Thanks for the reply. I use Windows - actually Windows 10.

I did take a quick look at Unity but I did not see any indication of how I would incorporate my SU model in it. Maybe I missed something.

Thanks for sharing. Now if only I spoke French

I think you convinced me to give it a try

It's not that can we call an easy intuitive plugin!
Ask a certain learning curve!

A concern I have is that the web site says Copyright 2012. When was the last time the software was updated? Also, the trial Functionality seems pretty limited and I cannot get a good feel for how much the software costs (I will need to let management know if we like it).

Going to try it this week though.

From the site last update seems for SU 2013 ! So try if that yet work with newer SU versions

Free version allows you to make 10 seconds animation!
Of course sufficient for test functions but not if you want more directly!

(you can also make some past of different animations if you are tricky!
Prices was 50 to 200 € following versions

Having problems with installation. I have sent them a note. Will see if I get any reply.
Might be a problem because I am running SU 2015 on Win10.

I have printed off and read some of the documentation. I agree that it looks like it could be kind of complicated but powerful if I can get it going. The 10 second limit for the trial version might make it difficult to properly evaluate.
