[Preview] TIME9LINE Beta - 1.0.0. (Patreon)

I have released the Beta version of "TIME9LINE", an intuitive plugin that will dramatically evolve your workflow in StudioNEOV2!

■ How "TIME9LINE" was born

Actually, this all started with a casual thought: "It would be nice to have a simple pose transitioner." But when I finished building it, I realized something. "Wait a minute? This is just a super easy timeline!"

I have never really used existing complex timelines because they are too confusing for me. That is exactly why I focused on the ultimate intuitive operation: "Just change the pose and press the Record button." I believe that even people with zero timeline experience, like myself, can instantly experience the joy of animating characters.

■ A Chain of Inspiration and Infinite Possibilities

As I continued developing, the ideas just wouldn't stop: "I want to move items, not just characters!", "Blendshapes too!", "Cameras!", "If I could change light colors, I could make amazing scenes!"

Furthermore, it can load entire existing character animations and adjust their playback time and speed, so it can also double as a "Character Animation Player" (and of course, it handles basic poses, which was my initial goal). You can also share the motions you create using the Export/Import function.

When I asked a friend to test it, I learned something interesting. What I originally built as a "motion looper" can transform into a "super-efficient scene creation tool" in the hands of an advanced user who knows the existing tools. Depending on what the user wants to do, the ways to use it are incredibly diverse. The possibilities feel truly infinite and unknown.

■ Releasing the "Instruction Manual" as a Pamphlet

As a result of adding features on a whim, the UI has understandably become a bit cluttered. It has grown into something so big that even I sometimes forget, "Wait, what was this button for again?" (lol). I think you'll get used to it quickly once you touch it, but it is still a work in progress.

Honestly, I can't explain everything in words, so in this post, I am releasing the included "Instruction Manual (HTML)" for free as a promotional pamphlet! To see what this tool can actually do, please download the manual first and take a look inside. If it catches your interest, I would be thrilled if you tried the plugin yourself!

■ Early Access Period and Future Plans

While I was preparing to distribute this plugin to everyone, the concept for the next step, "TIME9LINE 2", already popped into my head and development has begun.

In the future, when "TIME9LINE 2" reaches a level where I can release its Beta, I plan to make this current release, "TIME9LINE (1st Gen)", completely FREE to the public!

⚠️ 【Important Notice】

Actually, I am going on a business trip for about a week starting tomorrow, so I will be completely away from my main PC! ✈️

This means... even if there is a massive bug in this tool, I absolutely cannot fix it for a week! (lol). For those brave souls who can accept my "complete abandonment", please treat any bugs as features and enjoy the ride! (I will bring my laptop, so I can at least reply to messages).

■ YouTube Channel

Also, I hit my upload limit for today so I've stopped for now, but I have started publishing simple workflow videos on YouTube. It's still not enough, but I plan to upload more little by little, so please check out my channel too!
