Ideas For Hype 5 Features…

We had the Godot conversation before. I don't consider Godot / Redot a replacement for Hype.

As for Framer, I haven't used it. But from what I've read through a few Internet searches, it seems to be a website builder. That's not Hype, which is more like Macromedia Flash / Adobe Animate than Adobe Dreamweaver. I don't compare Hype to apps like Figma, Webflow, or even rive.app. I don't even know what's that last one either, so it's hard to compare. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Looks like that conversation occurred too… Tools Hype vs Rive

So, I think that's the difference in tone. A lot of your posts are about other applications. I'm not interested in that. If Tumult says they're working on it, that's good enough. They didn't disappoint with the versions 1.6 and 4.0 updates.

I still consider version 1.6 one of the greatest software updates of all time.

…will Hype 5 beat that? :thinking:

This post is not wishful thinking. It's not a waste of time. It's to help shape the next update, to help it be amazing. There are a lot of little things that the developers might be missing. And based on what I've seen so far, I'm very glad that I put in the effort to start and continue this conversation.

Also, even though Hype hasn't done a major update in years, I still have a working app. They have been doing minor updates… Tumult Hype Documentation …I'm not considering software alternatives that I have to rent.

A lot of the features missing in Hype I can add by myself, like PWA exporting. The main issue that I see with Hype is with Physics. Progress seemed to have stalled, but then I did some research. The result is pretty big information, which could definitely improve Hype 5.

Wow! :astonished_face:
So good! :smiley:

Earlier in this thread, Tumult didn't seem too keen with the Physics ideas. But after doing the experimentation, I showed how two of the biggest Physics issues with Tumult Hype could be resolved or at least improved. (CCD is still not part of Matter.js, but using a later version of the engine seemed work better.) Theoretically, it's not a lot of work for Tumult either. I don't know if they will implement the recommended changes, but at least now they know about it.

I'm looking forward to the day when Hype 5 launches and I can compare the new features to the ones listed here. So, I consider this prep work for one awesome video on my YouTube (Photics.TV) channel. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

…and probably “A Book About Hype 5”. :wink:

And one more thing, it's motivation! Hopefully this inspires Tumult to work harder. I'm still here. I still see great potential for this software.


UPDATE

Added “Import SVG” to the animation section and cleaned up the list. Apparently I had export video with audio twice. But since that's such a glaring problem, maybe I should have kept it on the list twice. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
