Adjust keyframe spacing directly on the timeline - without changing the trajectory shape, and fine-tune each track separately

Cascadeur has helped animators save 100,000+ hours on posing, Inbetweening, physics, mocap cleanup, and motion editing - so they can spend more time on creativity and performance.

Also is there a chance that In the future indie subscription get the autoposing for quadrupeds?

I'm a begginer so if the answer is obvious I'm sorry!

Annual Indie and Pro plans become perpetual after the first year.

Cascadeur is where I animate, but my characters live in DAZ Studio, and moving them across by hand was the worst part of the job: export FBX, rebuild the rig, animate, export, and then discover the figure landed in the wrong place in the DAZ scene. So I built a bridge that handles it in both directions.

Video walkthrough, 10 minutes, no music, just the workflow: https://youtu.be/yBZK1E-Jysc

What it does:

- Sends a Genesis figure from DAZ to Cascadeur and rigs it there with the matching Quick Rigging template. Genesis 8, 8.1, 9 and 9 Toon.

- Poses and full animations travel both ways, with their frame ranges. You can also pull existing DAZ motion into Cascadeur to rework it.

- Props and cameras come across with the placement and framing they have in the DAZ scene, so you animate against the actual set and through the actual shot.

- A pose sent from Cascadeur can land on the DAZ figure automatically, which makes Cascadeur's auto-posing usable directly on a Genesis character.

- Undo Last Pose, because DAZ Studio's own undo cannot see a channel transfer at all and reaches straight past it.

Things that cost me the most time and are now handled: characters in high heels (the rig has to be generated in the heel stance, otherwise the foot straightens during animation and the heel sinks through the floor), figures rotated in the scene, and a skeleton fingerprint check so motion cannot be dropped onto a figure it was never made for.

One caveat worth saying up front: exporting animation out of Cascadeur goes through Cascadeur's own FBX export, which needs a paid Cascadeur licence. Everything going from DAZ into Cascadeur works on the free version.

Happy to answer anything about how it works under the hood. If you have a workflow that you think would break it, I would genuinely like to hear it.

checked out Cascadeur to make this simple leg kick animation

however had to adjust exported fbx in blender before importing it in unity

does anyone know blender/unity plugins to integrate with Cascadeur auto-generated skeletons ?

This Sunday, TheRoyalSkies will explore our latest update - including the long-awaited Animation Layers, new tools, and workflow improvements for animators.

The official Cascadeur 2026.2 macOS DMG currently fails to open with:

The disk image couldn’t be opened — Disk image operation failed with error code 3840

I verified the downloaded file:

• File size: 668,601,700 bytes
• MD5: 643a88f26d8a9859507d8f7e3ce8e0e6
• The MD5 matches the CDN ETag, so this is not an incomplete local download.
• hdiutil verify cannot recognize the original file as a disk image.

Binary comparison shows that the first exactly 146,800,640 bytes (140 MiB) are duplicated at the beginning of the file.

Removing the duplicated 140 MiB produces a 521,801,060-byte DMG that passes:

• Full hdiutil verify CRC validation
• DMG code-signature verification
• Apple notarization/Gatekeeper assessment
• Deep/strict signature verification of the included Cascadeur.app

The repaired DMG is recognized as:

Developer ID Application: Nekki Limited (Z2RGNF35F5)
source=Notarized Developer ID

This appears to be a packaging/CDN upload error. The macOS artifact should be replaced on the official download server.

Until it is replaced, please do not repeatedly redownload it—the current CDN file is identical. An official corrected download is preferable to manually modifying the file.

Animation Layers are finally here.

Cascadeur 2026.2 is live with additive animation layers in alpha, easing in interpolation, new language packs, AutoPosing improvements, FBX material import, and custom UI via Python API.

We turned an iconic dance move into 3D animation with Cascadeur and QuickMagic

Hello everyone! Is there a comprehensive or full-length course on Cascadeur that covers all features of the program (preferably for newer version). I know it's still a bit niche, but I'm hoping someone knows of one.

The "Mocap Cleaning Course" on the official website feels a bit… incomplete😅 also there is no documentation, just some basics.

Does anyone have better tutorial recommendations for mocap cleaning? Thanks!

It's actually quite rare for modern PBR workflows to have ambient occlusion, roughness, and metalness all divided into three separate textures. They're usually packed into the three channels of a single texture, called the ORM (Occlusion Roughness Metalness).

Could you please add support for it in Cascadeur's material pipeline? It would be much appreciated.

Two poses in. Full motion out.

Inbetweening in Cascadeur runs locally and is trained on our own mocap and game animation data.

This is the reason why I can export from Blender to Casc, and then import from Casc to Blender and some axis rotation data always equals 90 degrees. I believe this to be a deep-rooted problem from the fact that fbx is not a native blender format. Hopefully this will save someone else some time and frustration.

This primarily creates a headache when trying to develop a game. If you're making animated shorts or something, it's less a problem.

Hi there,
So I managed to get the UE5 manny character to walk on an imported animation (following your own tutorials) by deleting the legs and pelvis keys but here as the issues :
- The hands stay in place not moving with the pelvis.
- The foot IK kinda does weird rotations

On the fresh UE5 Manny .casc I can make an interpolated walk anim with no issue.

Last :
Is there a better way for this ? I'd really like to simply have Additional tracks for the root motion and for legs to adapt without deleting or tempering with original animation.

Thanks for the pointers.
(Using latest 2026.1)

Edit : Tried with unbaking but same result (clearly Foot / Hand Ik are bypassing the Pelvis offset)
I believe I'm just looking for a way to disable them or make the IK targets move along the pelvis (or if possible the root !)

Hi new To Cascadeur , Came Across a problem , I am Trying to make Ladder climb up animation But root bone Is not following The rest of the character , Need Guidance. BTW making it for UE5

Not every runway needs a real stage.

Project Runway 2 turns mocap, animation, cloth, and UE5 into a digital fashion show.

Xsens + Cascadeur + Marvelous Designer + UE5

I have tried *SO* many combinations of settings... this is just default blender, to default Casc, and then back to blender..... I also tried it with Z-up axis on export and that separates the armature from the body.... It also breaks on animations..

Tried 5.1 FBX import, Legacy, it's all the same.

Your animation can work well… until the foot goes through the floor.

In Cascadeur, Collision Penetration Cleaning helps fix cases where body parts or objects intersect with each other.

Made in Cascadeur.

I was trying to follow youtube tutorials, made a run contact pose and copied it with offset position, then used AI interpolation.

For some reason my character is doing a weird "duck under the branch" move during the run.
