ScuzzBlog: Diaries March 2023 Entry 8th March 2023: Post 1: AEGIS Animator for the Amiga - 1986. AEGIS Animator for the Amiga - 1986. Following on with my animation feature this month I show today AEGIS Animator for the Amiga. This isn't a polished package by any means but for one DD disk it really is a fun thing to play about with. The software has tremendous historical value in terms of where it sits in the Amiga timeline. So if you do like collecting old classics then go hunt it down. The animator is more of a storyboard viewer using frames that are ordered in tweens which are animation time frames that you can create and then flick between all your tweens. The idea is that you create images and then animate them in sequence. There is a fast menu that is very helpful and even a storyboard to organise your animations. It is surprisingly simple to use and can use IFF images created in DPaint. One feature that is interesting is the panic facility that lets you quickly save when you are running out of memory. I include the CUAmiga magazine article that features the disk. The tutorial explains sufficient for you to get going. Aegis Animator (tm) v1.20 - the magic tweener program, was created for Aegis Development Inc in 1984, 1985 and 1986 by Jim Kent at Island Graphics in Sausilito, California.
