Any possibility Steve will make Anim8or open source?
« on: April 08, 2013, 11:56:23 am »

Just thought I'd ask in case he might release the source code for others to upgrade Anim8or. Could someone pleae ask Steve what his thoughts might be on the issue? Thanks, Leroy.

Steve remains fairly tight-lipped about making Anim8or open source. I had already approached him regarding it, and so have others. Suffice it to say that Steve still wants complete control over Anim8or's development, and he still plans on releasing updates in the future.
