Why I'm not updating HAT
Hey guys, sorry for being MIA for 5 years.

It's been a long run and it's crazy how much it still is being used even though it's no longer maintained.

Sad to say but this project has been long abandoned because the source code has been lost and mostly because I have other obligations. Maybe in the future I will pick this project back up from scratch but for now it will remain on the shelf.

Hopefully no updates have broken this mod and it should live on for a couple more years.

For alternatives though, I would definitely check out "Stop Motion Helper" which has had more recent updates than mine, or go as far as to learn Source Film Maker.

Lol this addon makes your menu completely disappear from existence. You can't open your menu when you have this

You had such a following with this addon, and now you ♥♥♥♥ them over by abandoning it.
I can see why, but some people are gonna get pissed.

Hay there. You know, your tool works better than SMH. Even now still.
Thew only problem is: it ♥♥♥♥♥ up fingerposing sometimes. I dunno why.
If you will ever return to work on this, or give some LUA coders protips on the programm, tell them to look into issues such as this.
shm is broken too.
damnit

I wish someone will make a similar animation tool like this.

As far as I know, you can still extract the source, unless you specifically went through the trouble of obfuscating your code. Just extract the .gma.

Ah, the curse of the modding community. If you have Dropbox or Google Drive, you can backup your files in there to avoid this with any future mods you do.
