Developer's Description

Create character animations in less time.

An(i)ma uses the award winning line of Metropoly 3D Humans. These digital Actors are controlled by real motion capture data and automatic procedural motions combined with a motion blending system to achieve super-realistic animations.You can simulate the behavior of a large number of characters with some simple parameters.An(i)ma uses a simple and intuitive interface that allows for a fast and easy drag and drop editing. The interface, using collision dynamics simulation, gives the user a straightforward way to create realistic animations which be computed on the fly while the user is editing - involving multiple characters. A short learning curve allows you to focus on design and visualization without being distracted by the software.An(i)ma combines a sophisticated AI brain engine to predict collisions between agents.The animated characters in the scene will behave realistically.Spline, Fixed, Stairs and Escalator Path Tools gives you the possibility to drive the Actors in an animation over formal surfaces such as floors, ramps, stairs, animated escalators or moving walkways.

The installer was a total disappointment
7vincent7black7December 21, 2011
Pros
The program looks solid and intuitive from the review. When looking at the description, Cnet's information about the program itself is sharp and seemingly well informed.
Cons
The lack of information however, of the nature of this particular version and any possible requirements or steps to take for installation make it imposible to use this program for ourselves since it seems to require "maxon cinema 4d 11.532" files to have the programs installer inside of Cnet's installer to install anything more.
Summary
I came looking for this as a last resort because I have this image of a character stuck in my head half-made with no way to get out, the actual site for this program advertised a free trial standalone program but in order to download I had to register to the site, the register button wasnt working so I found my way here. It download fast and I was excited to finally start getting this old guy's face out of my head when I started the installer the Cnet installer worked wonders. Now I assumed this was freeware since I didnt have to pay to download it yet when I went to run the program's installer itself it demanded other files that had not ever even been mentioned. There was no explanation where to get these files or that we would need them on the Cnet site. With no information on how to install this or why it is that we need files that I'm willing to bet Cnet may not even have in a separate download I have to give this download a poor rating as it is neither convenient nor user friendly. Regardless of whether this is Cnet not getting all their ducks in a row, or the creators of this software being incompetent and not getting things straight before giving the software to Cnet to host, I must say that this is not on my happy list to say the least. If this installed all the way the way I was hoping it would I'm sure I would have given it a minimum of four stars. The cnet never even really clarified if this was the free trial version of it was the full version and is thus a useless download without purchasing other files. (see previous sentences about any information about the packaging of the download installers.) I'm seeing faces of characters in my head of people who don't exist, albeit characters for a story that don't exist, and theres now little chance of being able ot get them out, if I go crazy Cnet, its now on you and the creators of this program. :)
Great software!
