Moho Pro 14.4

Moho Pro 14.4

Moho Pro (formerly Anime Studio) is a powerful, all-in-one 2D animation software specializing in a bone-rigging system for vector and bitmap layers. It enables animators to create complex, fluid character animations with fewer keyframes by building puppet-like rigs. Its unique “Smart Mesh” technology allows for smooth, organic deformations of vector artwork, bridging the gap between traditional frame-by-frame animation and more efficient puppet animation workflows.

🎞️ Primary Users

Moho Pro is developed for 2D animators, cartoonists, explainer video creators, motion graphics artists, and indie game developers. It is specifically designed for professionals who create high-quality, character-driven 2D animation using advanced bone rigging, vector-based tools, and smart meshes for organic deformation.

✨ Key Features & Capabilities

• Advanced Bone Rigging & Inverse Kinematics (IK): Industry-leading bone system for creating complex, hierarchical character rigs with IK chains for intuitive limb posing and animation.

• Smart Mesh & Vector Warping: Proprietary mesh-warping technology that binds vector artwork to bones, enabling smooth, stretchy, and organic deformations that maintain stroke quality.

• Frame-by-Frame & Tweening Tools: Complete set of traditional animation tools (onion skinning, light table) alongside powerful automatic tweening (Smart Bones) for mixing techniques.

• Physics & Dynamics Engine: Built-in physics simulator to add realistic secondary motion to hair, clothing, tails, and other elements attached to a rig.

• Bezier & Freehand Drawing Tools: Full-featured vector drawing tools with pressure sensitivity for creating and editing artwork directly within Moho.

• Particle System & Effects: Integrated particle system for creating effects like rain, snow, fire, and dust, which can also be controlled by bones.

• 3D Integration & Camera: Import 3D objects (OBJ) and use a multi-plan camera to create parallax effects, adding depth to 2D scenes.

🆕 What’s New in Moho Pro 14.4

This build (20251110) is a maintenance and feature update focusing on stability, asset management, and animation workflow refinements:

1. Enhanced Content Library & Preset Manager: Redesigned asset browser with better search, tagging, and organization for brushes, actions, bone rigs, and particle presets.

2. Improved Vector Brush Performance: Optimizations for the vector brush engine, resulting in smoother drawing and faster rendering of complex vector lines, especially with pressure-sensitive tablets.

3. Smart Bone Action Improvements: Added more control and interpolation options for Smart Bone actions, allowing for more nuanced and complex automated motions.

4. Updated Export Profiles: New and optimized export presets for popular platforms (YouTube, TikTok) and game engines, streamlining the final delivery process.

5. Bug Fixes & Stability Patches: Resolved various issues related to file loading/saving, physics simulation stability, and graphical glitches on specific GPU drivers.

🖥️ System Requirements (Windows)

• OS: Windows 10/11 (64-bit)

• CPU: Multi-core processor (Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 minimum, i7/Ryzen 7 recommended for complex rigs)
