On Anime

While Anime is a beloved animation style with a rich history and extensive following, our focus here leans towards other forms of animation. This is due to the immense popularity of Anime in online spaces, which is amply covered by other dedicated communities.

This doesn't mean that Anime related conversation is not allowed here, only that it's not our focus. For a dedicated Anime instance, check out ani.social.

On Technical Discussion

While our primary goal is to discuss animated media, conversations about animation techniques and the process of creating animation are also welcome. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.

I wish to make high quality animation. The machine is more than 15 years old. What are the upgrades required for making such a machine suitable for making high quality animation and for working on Godot ??

You are basically being told it doesn't matter. Shrek and Toy Story were both animated on something much older than what you have now.

If you are asking about UI smoothness, pick a machine that can handle 16 GB of memory or more.

For hardware specific questions, what software and OS are you planning to use?

[–] TheracAriane@thebrainbin.org 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

@SpikesOtherDog@ani.social for software, of course l'd be using blender. Also Godot.

I'd be working on MX Linux.

What is your budget, and what county are you in?

[–] TheracAriane@thebrainbin.org 1 points 5 months ago

@SpikesOtherDog@ani.social l'm in India. Here, not only the budget, but also the technology might differ. I'm at a learner stage, just setting out with the exploration.
