Over deze software

Shack Animator 2D is a lightweight, production-focused 2D animation application built for speed and control. It centers on a robust raster brush engine, fast real-time playback, and a GPU-accelerated workflow that stays responsive even as projects grow. Whether you’re creating hand-drawn animation, or mixed 2D/3D shots, Shack Animator 2D is designed to keep you in motion from first frame to final export.

A key part of the workflow is real-time PBR lighting and channel painting, helping you add depth and a lifelike feel to your drawings and animation in any style—from hand-drawn looks to 3D-inspired shading. Paint across full PBR channel sets, iterate quickly with GPU-powered tools and effects, and keep your work organized with a flexible layer and timeline system.

Key features:

• Robust raster brush engine with responsive controls and custom brush presets

• Brush tools: Brush, Eraser, Fill, and Liquify (more coming soon)

• Layer-based workflow with groups, visibility controls, and hierarchy tools

• Timeline animation with fast real-time playback and onion skinning

• Audio layers managing with scrubbing along timeline

• Selection tools (marquee and lasso) with transform controls (move/rotate/scale)

• Integrated PBR painting workflow with multi-channel texture support (Color, Roughness, Metallic, Normal, AO, Emissive, Opacity)

• Real-time lighting preview and GPU-forward rendering pipeline

• GPU effects support for modern, flexible looks

• 3D compatibility: mesh layers and animated scene import for combined 2D/3D shots

• Project system with save/load and progress feedback

• Hotkeys and a streamlined UI for efficient work

• And many more...

From rough frames to finished shots, Shack Animator 2D is a lightweight powerhouse designed to keep you in the creative flow.
