Vancouver, Washington (January 15, 1999) –
Hash, Inc. is proud to announce the release of Animation Master 99. This release adds even more productivity to the animator’s toolkit, building on all of the existing spectacular Hash features that are so renowned, such as: Hash patches, reusable animation libraries, materials, ad infinitum; plus astounding new innovations to make animating more productive and more fun. New to AM99 are: Smart Skin, Action Blending, Real-Time Blended Joints, etc… But most importantly, the price is still $199!As you all know, the 98 release of Animation Master was full of effects features. We added lens flares, smoke, steam, fire, material effectors, etc., etc., etc. The list was endless. Of course, we kept animation as our main focus but the idea of a theme was great, so the 99 release has its own themes: FILM, WORKFLOW, and VIDEOGAMES.
AM99 is designed and marketed as an entry level priced character animation program with the most advanced professional features. Hash Inc.’s philosophy is to build a tool set that assists animators in storytelling. AM99 is cross platform compatible with Windows 95/98, Windows NT and PowerMac.
