Alternatives to animate

I’m just really not a fan of unitys animator! i see it creates .ani files, is there a third party animator that can be used that saves ani files? is this possible, its for simple 2d graphics

DOTween is a free asset that allows you to animate objects via C# scripts. Might be something to look at.

I can guarantee you that there are other programs that make use of the .ani extension, but just having the same extension doesn’t mean anything. Unity’s ANI files won’t be compatible with another program unless that program is designed to be compatible.

Check out the Animancer plugin, as well as this article (if you’re doing 2D animation).
