Naomi Animation 4+

I tested this out but the FBX model I used wouldn’t import. I hope this program will add support for PMX models and export for VMD animation files. I’d love that.

PMX are files for models from the program MikuMikuDance, which is big in the Genshin Impact community. The MMD community itself is big, but because it is PC only, it means I have to sit up at my desk to use it. I hope this app will add support for MMD files and VMD motion files so I can easily import the VMD files into MMD to add the finishing touches. Please consider it ;w; thanks!

First of all, I apologize for the late reply; somehow, I missed your feedback. Please accept my apologies for that. Thank you a lot for the input and valuable feedback; we will put your request into the backlog - definitely worthy to look into that. If you have any additional ideas on how we can improve or what you would like to see in Naomi (regarding the animation industry), don't hesitate to join our Discord channel: https://discord.gg/5FpxCbDr. There, we can discuss it in more detail. Thanks again for your review.

Best regards,
Jan from the Naomi team.

I absolutely love it. Just spend hours in the middle of the night achieving things I couldn't in Spline, and things I just don't wanna bother to have to do in Apple Motion or the bloated After Effects.

With this said, I think a side drawer with layers to easily select objects would be amazing, along with the ability to see and edit camera path when animating it, and of course, being able to animate Depth of Field in the camera. Lastly, not sure why the camera capture, why not just be able to export an mp4?

Summing up, the app is fantastic. These above suggestions would just make it PERFECT and earn my 6 out of 5 rating!

Thank you very much for your valuable and constructive feedback. We hope to release a new version with a 'hierarchy inspector' by the end of January, where you will be able to navigate through the entire nodes hierarchy. I hope this addresses your request regarding the layers drawer. However, if it does not, please don't hesitate to join our Discord channel: https://discord.gg/5FpxCbDr and send me a direct message, where we can discuss it more deeply. Alternatively, if you have any other excellent ideas, such as visualizing the path of camera movement, it would be lovely to hear them! Best regards, Jan from Naomi team.

It’s simple to use and that’s a major plus. Unfortunately, it’s no go for me based solely on the fact it lacks of have even basic lighting features such as HDRI rotate/scale and adding lights like Directional, Spot and Point lights. It’s still useful but I don’t trust exporting the animation rig to the only other 3D animation app with these lighting features.

Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting your concerns. We appreciate your input, and we want to assure you that we are actively working on enhancing our app's features. We are currently in the process of migrating to a new rendering system, and lighting features are in the pipeline. We aim to implement these improvements in the first quarter of 2024. We understand the importance of lighting capabilities in a 3D animation app. We acknowledge that the current version may not meet all your expectations, but we hope you'll find the upcoming changes more suitable for your needs. If you have any additional ideas, requests, or thoughts, we would love to hear them. Feel free to join our Discord community at https://discord.gg/8JpdVUXf, where we can engage in more in-depth discussions about the upcoming features and gather valuable insights from users like yourself. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work towards making Naomi even better. We look forward to providing you with an improved and more feature-rich experience in the near future. Best regards, Jan from Naomi team.
