Description
LivePlay Cached Playback is a Blender playback addon that lets you watch your animation in real time, right in the 3D View. Heavy rigs, multiple characters and a full set play back at full speed, so you can judge your timing the moment you hit play.
The Lifetime license covers 2 machines and includes every future update, so LivePlay keeps up with new Blender versions without paying again.
Blender Real-Time Playback, Right in the 3D View
When a scene gets heavy, Blender playback drops frames and your animation stutters. The usual fix is to render a playblast and wait for a flat 2D video just to check your timing. LivePlay caches your animation and plays it back in real time inside the viewport. You can orbit the camera and check the shot from any angle while it plays.
Fix Blender Animation Lag Without Proxies
Proxy rigs change your character’s silhouette and strip the textures, so you end up judging a different character. Hiding collections to gain FPS means you stop seeing how everyone moves together. With LivePlay, you keep the real mesh, its shaders and textures, and the whole scene visible, and it still plays in real time.
Cached Playback That Only Updates What You Change
Tweak a key in the Graph Editor and LivePlay re-caches only the frames you touched. The rest of the shot stays ready, so you hit play and see the change right away. No new playblast for every small fix.
A Blender Playblast Alternative for Animators
LivePlay is built for the animation workflow: blocking, splining and polish. Instead of rendering, waiting and opening a video player, you stay in Blender and keep animating.
- Real-time playback – watch your animation at full speed in the 3D View.
