Constant Crashing

Whenever I attempt to use the Bone Tool on an object in animate, the app immediately crashes without any saves. Is there a way to fix this?

The bone tool in Animate is a broken and half-baked mess. Just avoid using it, because it is not worth the frustration.

 

Either install the Flanimate plugin to access good FK/IK bone animation tools in Animate, or switch to an alternative, such as Moho Pro.

Addendum: I just discovered that the latest release of Moho Pro adds animation export (fully rigged!!!) for characters and animations in to Godot, Blender, Unity, and Unreal. 

Now to update my R13 to R14... 🙂 And they are having a Black Friday sale till the 30th. Nice.

Gonna also add here that I have already tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling Animate, and this problem still persists.
