    Notes:
    Development of new features has ended and only critical bugfixes will be done going forward. Future updates are not guaranteed and will be infrequent. Most AMD cards and integrated graphics cards are prone to have poor performance, artifacts, and crashes relating to high-quality rendering. If you encounter any of these issues, we recommend staying with Mine-imator 1.2.9 for your projects.

    A huge thank you to every creator who put their time and effort over the past 3 weeks to accomplish this arduous task.

    I used "fame" to reach out to as many people as I could about a collaboration between all kinds of artists. Including musicians, animators, and others alike. All to help band together to create one large collaborative video dedicated to the one and only,

    @Nimi.

    We kept this a secret, all 158 of us. Doing everything in our power as a collective group to keep it from reaching Nimi's ears until we were ready.


    Unfortunately, that meant that many people wouldn't be able to hear about this Collab and contribute. Which is why I encourage anyone who wishes to contribute, make a video anyways and simply put #DearNimi in it to be apart of this trend.Anyone is welcome, we all just want to show our appreciation to a great and genuine person.

    Thank you, Nimi.

    Hi everyone, it's Cade.
    This morning, I got to test out the new beta build of Mine-imator 2.0's C++ port.
    I mainly tested out animation playback since that has always been somewhat of a motivation killer for me in the past. Here's a little video I made
    about it!

    The Tan James reacted to david in Dev update #22: Mine-imator 2.0 in C++!?   
    Greetings!
    With the 10 year anniversary of Mine-imator coming up, I’ve decided to temporarily rejoin the developer team and add some long requested features you will soon be able to download in an upcoming version 2.0 pre-release arriving late May/early June! 
    @Nimi has done some phenomenal work on new features (many not even announced yet!), however the graphics engine used (GameMaker) has been a big obstacle towards optimizing the software and ensuring good framerates and memory usage with all the new additions. Therefore I have jumped in to lend a hand and I've finally been able to successfully migrate Mine-imator to a new graphics engine using the C++ programming language for added performance, optimized memory (x64) and multi-platform support. For all the technical details see the bottom of the post.
    In order to facilitate the development we have greatly appreciated your support throughout the years, creating and sharing content, giving suggestions, reporting bugs and especially with donations! Mine-imator has for the past decade been completely free and will remain so, but your donations have helped keep it alive with webserver costs and directly funded the development of version 2.0 (for instance, I had to get a MacBook for this update 😉). If you have not donated yet to the development team or wish to continue supporting, see the link below:
    Donate to Mine-imator development ($5+ one-time or recurring)
    With all that aside, let’s get to the new features found in the first 2.0 pre-release, later followed by additional releases with Nimi’s UI changes, animation improvements and rendering features (See Dev Update #21)!
    Let’s get HYPED!   
     
    Starting off small yet useful, an actually working Cancel option when clicking the program’s X!
     
     
    Next up something for the multi-monitor animators: No more crammed workspaces, simply detach your timeline or camera view into a second window and drag it to another screen!
     

     
    Scenery/.schematic file loading has been multi-threaded and optimized to be around 10 times faster as well as taking up less memory, allowing much bigger regions than before! In addition, the scenery is cached and instantly loaded upon re-opening your project (with no loading bar).
     
     
    Mine-imator will soon be able to handle much more complex projects with a speedup between 3-5 times compared to earlier versions when rendering many objects. This is made possible with CPU optimizations and combining objects into batches before sending them to the GPU for rendering (Mine-imator will not be allocating more CPU resources compared to current versions, just using them more efficiently).

     
    Linux users have been left out of using Mine-imator for 10 years, but no more! Version 2.0 will run smoothly on Debian/Ubuntu operating systems with all the same features!
    (P.S. If you have another favorite Linux distribution let us know)

     
    Same goes for Mac OS users after countless requests!

     
    Finally, the “Import from World” option has been completely reworked to have a 3D interface for more easily selecting a section of your world to animate. Despite being 3D and having more options, it will also load worlds much more quickly compared to the current version and in general be more stable. It will also be integrated into the software rather than opening a pop-up window, and accessed with a shortcut in the toolbar.

     
     
    Behind the scenes of the 2.0 C++ port:
    (Things will get technical and nerdy, you have been warned!!)

    Be sure to keep an eye out for the upcoming pre-releases, following our Twitter page or joining our Discord chat might be a good idea. 😎✌️
    Once again thank you for all the support through the years and keep on animating our favorite block game!

    My little contribution for #DearNimi. I've been using MI for 6 and a half years now, unfortunately less often now than the first few years, but it's safe to say that my life would be pretty different without it. Thank you Nimi for all you've done with Mine-imator, and making this beloved software better and better every year. Also thank you for ModelBench, which made the model shown below possible!
