Tvori

Cannot import a model with textures unless subscribing to Tvori Pro (on top of buying it) for $1500 a year. https://tvori.co/features

Paid for early access, seems i lost features when they updated. Seems unethical.

I first got tvori, I would play a bit but I'm lazy and don't have a lot of imagination. Once I played after the update, having the human figure to manipulate, I'm hooked. Plus having some nice premade sets to work with saves so much time. I wrote the developer in the morning, later that night I had a response. IThere is nothing negative I've have experienced. Very happy with this purchase.

What you buy is only a DEMO. Costs $125 a month to use. This is NOT clearly stated on the page.

Hi devs, please don't promise something you can't deliver. On 7 May 2017, in a [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/517170/discussions/0/1326718197212608125/] forum thread[/url], one developer said that the export function would be available within weeks. Here's the quote: "We plan to implement the export to Alembic and FBX soon. I think we should make it work in several weeks from now." It's been a year, and the new update finally came out. Yet the ability to export is nowhere to be found. Without a proper export function, Tvori isn't that useful and simply not something I can recommend. Wait for a 75% off sale. It's not worth the full price. And take everything the developers say with a grain of salt.

If you're looking for serious 3d object handling this is not it. Can't edit edges and vertices, can't import obj files. Just a bunch of primitives and some pre made assets. (EDIT: According to the devs "It's possible now to import OBJ files as well as quickly add models from an online library of 3D objects called Pol".) If you're looking for serious 3d animation, again this is not it. BUT If you're looking to non-professionally create animations or comic scenes, while having tons of fun with it, then step right trough! Pros: Super easy and fast animation tool and cameras Cons: No tutorials, interface needs polish It took me a couple hours to get acclimated and then I made this masterpiece https://youtu.be/APyT9LaSDPc

This has been massively improved by recent updates and the devs are clearly listening to community feedback. It doesn't have all the features of a full desktop modeling or animation suite, but what it does have in spades is ease of use. If you find traditional 3d animation fiddly and slow, this is the app for you. I recently tested creating and animating a scene in Blender vs Tvori. The scene was a set of interlinked primitives and some text animated over a bout a minut, just to illustrate a concept. In Blender it took about eight hours make and four hours to render, the results were nice, but that is a lot of time for a minute of footage. In Tvori it took an hour to make and 30 minutes to render. The results were 90% as good and indistinguishable to a layman. In that single scene Tvori would have saved me a full days worth of work. I will absolutely be turning to Tvori first for simple projects like this in future. The other reviews talk about missing features, but those ha...

Should be labelled Tvori starter edition.

Still alot of place for improvement, but have in mind its early access! For anyone interested in having their own and accessible studios. Perfect for film makers of any skill level!

I was hoping it will help with 3d puppetry for drawing my mangas. But it probably have the worst UI ever. Can't rotate joints of puppets, IK is really limited and i couldn't finde any way to save my progress. Not recomdend
