Whether it shows just the actions for the selected character (or maybe it can show all actions in the current scene if no character is selected) it's definitely a welcome addition that will save you time.įor me, the number one reason you should buy or upgrade to MOHO 13 Pro is item one on the list, Bitmap Freehand Drawing Tools, Frame by Frame Capabilities.
That is, if you select a character rig and open the Action Window, only the actions for that character will be shown (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong). From what I can see from the demonstration video each character rig has its own Actions Window. Item three, the new 'Actions' Window is essentially a more organised UI specifically for creating a searchable library of reusable saved actions for whatever characters you're rigging. If you know what that sentence means (and I do), I'm very excited for you if that's something you need. You also get 3D Object Materials Support. If you like to create 3D environments that you render to look 2D like your characters this will be extremely useful. It makes sense to add more control to how things are lit.
MOHO has a true 3D camera and can import 3D objects. For me Object Light Manipulation is a great inclusion. I'll talk about these from least to most interesting to me, beginning with number two, Enhanced 3D Object Light Manipulation and Materials support. (That list right there is reason enough to buy Pro over Debut if you can).
MOHO 13 Pro has three core new features that Smith Micro is promoting. I think I have more than enough insight to let you know if the upgrade is worth it. However I took the time to learn MOHO 12 Pro fairly extensively, blogging about my process and sorting out 104 free MOHO training videos into a logical viewing order in the process. The other thing I need to be transparent about is I'm not, by any stretch, a frequent MOHO user/animator. Debut is fine if the budget doesn't stretch to Pro, but, if you never want to be disappointed about not having a feature, it's Pro or nothing!
If you're considering MOHO 13 Debut be aware that you're missing out on some of the new features, and a lot of existing features that are only available in the Pro version. To be clear, I'm only talking about MOHO 13 Pro. The question is should you buy or upgrade to the latest version? Obviously I've already spoiled this in the title, so the actual question is why do I think you should buy or upgrade? Smith Micro released MOHO 13, their all in one, 2D animation studio, this week.
