Version 16.1.0.2, launched today, introduces animation blending!
Some GLB models feature multiple animations. For example, this one has 8, ranging from standing to walking and running:
sketchfab.com...
In BluffTitler you can set the active animation with the 1st slider of the ANIMATION property:
outerspace-software.com...
Question is: what should happen when you animate this prop, let's say with 2 keyframes from 1 to 8?
Previous versions simply interpolated the value from 1 to 8, resulting in hard cuts from animation 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 to 5 to 6 to 7 to 8 (top line in the screenshot).
Clearly this is not what you want. In version 16.1.0.2 the animation is blended from 1 to 8: making a smooth transition from animation 1 to animation 8 (bottom line in the screenshot). This makes it possible to smoothly switch to another animation without unrealistic hard cuts!
Thank you all for this suggestion. Version 16.1.0.2 is now available from the download page:

Here are 2 other models with multiple animations to play around with:
