Similar to the FCurve Editor, the Camera Switcher now has the ability to display an audio waveform from an audio clip or a Story audio track, allowing animators to stay in context while using audio in the Camera Switcher.

The resulting HUD hierarchies can then be easily attached to cameras and rendered in the Viewer, making it easier to associate things like HUD style rig control setups with cameras. The Navigator now supports drag and drop parenting of HUDs. If toggling on the Group while the option is disabled, only the nested groups that are already checked will be checked again.If toggling on the Group while the option is enabled, all nested groups will be turned on.New options in the Groups/Sets Tool are available to preserve the Show/Pick/Trs state of Groups/Sets when toggling a parent node. When the 'Maintain Ratio' option is enabled, the new Scale Y value/animation is ignored, and Scale Xis used for both.These new options are enabled when the 'Fit' option is unchecked and work in conjunction with the existing 'Center' and 'Maintain Ratio' settings.New Offset X/Y and Scale X/Y options have been added to the camera back and front plates.Users now have more precise control over the transformation of camera plates. The layers are now shown and parented to their respective takes in the Navigator.Users can add an animation layer in a relation constraint to control the weight of the layer.Relation Constraint UpdatesДЄrtists can include relation constraints in an animation layer, while also controlling layer weight, improving the visibility of the layer relationships within the Navigator. This saves time for animators by reducing the number of actions required to expand IK auxiliaries each time they select individual effectors in the Character Controls. When working with Character Controls, animators can control whether the auxiliary pivots/effectors should be automatically shown or not by using 'Automatically Expand Auxiliaries', a new preference added in the Character section. This simplifies the key framing process for character extensions by allowing users to animate them in conjunction with an associated body part. The new 'Add to Body Part' property enables artists to key a character extension when selecting the body part containing a reference object of that character extension.

'Showing Real Quaternion Rotations' is now displayed in the FCurve Editor to help users know if the mode is enabled or not.

'Real Quaternion Rotations', a new checkable menu item, is now available in the contextual menu of the FCurve Editor.

Workflow Enhancements Quaternions in the FCurve EditorДЄnimators can now visualize real Quaternion Rotation properties within the FCurve Editor that match evaluation values, instead of displaying them as normal FCurves. This enables artists and studios to customize the startup experience to differentiate between different projects or tool versions. Tool developers can now modify the MotionBuilder splash screen with custom imagery, defined by a new environment variable named MOTIONBUILDER_ICON_PATH. The Python Editor now displays an 'X' button on each script tab, providing a quick way to close scripts and allowing users to manage multiple script tabs more efficiently. The MotionBuilder API has been expanded and improved to include additional capablities based on common feedback from developers. This opens the door to the new capablities like file procession and rendering from the Command Line.

Python 3 is the new default on Windows and Linux, but MotionBuilder can still be launched in Python 2 mode by setting an environment variable or with an command line flag. Python 3 is now available for MotionBuilder providing performance, security, and dev-centri language enhancements, while support for PIP delivers instant access to the latest libraries and tools. This release includes support for Python 3, developer-focused improvements, and workflow enhancements to help improve daily work for animatiors and developers MotionBuilder 2022 enables artists to work faster and more effeciently without compromising creativity.
