The function of 3D character and motions of CTA 2 are included in CTA 3.

.

Hi, thought I'd try and back up my comments. This is some work I did on Mythbusters...



So ignore the 3D (which was done in open sourced Blender), it's all done in AE with some scripts.

• CA needs wheel motion that is driven by speed of sprite.
• Particle effects,
• Motion blur (possibly already supported?)
• Blending effects like additive and multiply.

The new Character Bone Templates makes me confused, how will it be connected to the old Character Composer. Then my questions are:
1. From the video demo, it looks like developing new characters will be much easier than before, because there are some universal templates. Is it right?
2. Will Character Bone Templates still compatible with 3D Motion, or it will be sticked to 2D motion only?
3. And the last is, can we make new universal characters with free bone tools, for our own custom characters, to become new templates? Or all templates will only be supplied by reallusion? This questions is very important, because I imagine there will be custom character bone templates for fish, or flower, or tree, which won't be given by this software.

The next very important question is, can we attach sprites to a character developed with Free Bones? If the answer for this question is yes, I am very sure to buy this pre-sale quickly.

Right now, I can only see lipsync animation added to the Free Bones character. If I want to make fingers animation or headturn animation, it would be impossible without specific sprites menu.

I hope that RL develop wizard/ special menu to add sprites easily for any kind of body part of a character. If it is would be hard to implement, then RL can sold it as part of CTA Pipeline edition only, which is very reasonable.

Thank you.

OK, now I have a question.  I have pretty much purchased all of the pre-qualifying packages on that link as of March this year.  Am I to understand that even though my software is not yet a year old, I have to repurchase an existing package that I have to get the $169.00 price for CrazyTalk Animator 3?  While I understand there will be a launch sale for existing owners, someone had mentioned that the upgrade price is going to be more than the pre-sale offer.

If this is indeed the case and I do wish to upgrade, I might as well take advantage of the pre-sale offer, however, from an existing customer that has already invested in all of these products, it really doesn't make sense for me.

Hi,
the windows and mac versions are released in the same time?

I agree with Gareth and Don.  I, too, am a Premium Member with CTA2 Pipeline.  I don't need anymore new content.  Just an upgrade to CTA3.  Also, I'm a student.  Will there be an academic discount?  Will there be a DARK user interface option?  I am developing a line of custom characters that I plan on using with the G2 templates provided in the Buddy's World pack.  Will there be any compatibility issues with this upgrade?  How will the new boning features work with pre-existing templates?  Since I haven't started using the templates yet for this project, I would hate to do all of this work ahead of time and discover issues on the back end.
