The currently free animation tool Cascadeur (previously covered in more detail here) for Windows and Linux, just released a new beta update, Cascadeur 2020.2.
Key new features of the 2020.2b release include:
- Quick Rigging tool for humanoid models – you can now create a simple humanoid rig much faster and with less hassle
- Simplified Ballistics edit menu and new Ballistic ghosts options – you can now see ghosts of all the ballistic trajectories or only the selected one, but the ballistics in your old scenes will need to be created again
- Improved Interval Edit mode – now with Linear and Bezier options
- Notification of a new version inside the program – as soon as the new version of Cascadeur becomes available, you will see the announcement directly in the program
- Several minor bug fixes and improvements
