[Maya] Advice for animation weight/overlap plugins?
polycounter lvl 6
Greetings!
I'm currently looking for some animation plugins for Maya to make overlapping and overshoots, and adding weight to animations in general, less manual and time consuming. While I enjoy the polish phase of animations, I realize it's not always the most efficient way.
Plugins I am considering:
Overlapper
Physics Tools
LMspring
WaveIt
BroDynamics
The only one I have tried is LMspring, because it's free. It works well enough, but doesn't have all that much control. The other ones are priced. I'd like to know if anyone here has any experience with these, which ones suit my needs, and which ones compliment each other, or become redundant if I buy both.
I work on mostly stylized animation, and I try to push my ability to create a nice flow to them. I find it important that I'm not limited to just realistic physics when working with such a plugin, but having the ability to tweak it so that it matches the style I'm going for.
Any feedback would be much appreciated!
