ALIEN FORMA

THE 0.7 UPDATE

0.7 ALIEN FORMA

Assemblies
in motion.

From editable parts to coordinated movement — with an experimental Animation workspace and a more direct AI workflow.

Local CAD projects. Native modelling tools. Connected through MCP.

ONE MODEL. MORE POSSIBILITIES.

A workspace for movement.

Experimental animation. For now, the most practical way to set up motion is with an AI agent connected through MCP. We are improving manual setup in the interface to make it simpler and more intuitive.

Square + raised circle · kinematic demonstration

Joint-driven poses, keyframes and playback. The motion demo is kinematic; its trajectory overlay is a presentation annotation.

From model to technical drawing.

IMPROVED SINCE 0.6.9

More movement.
Less friction.

MCP documentation ↗
01

Experimental animation & inspection

A dedicated workspace for joints, coordinated poses, keyframes, visual deformation and sampled distance checks.

02

Smoother work with complex assemblies

Improved opening times and editing responsiveness, with more reuse of geometry that has not changed.

03

Clearer camera & selection control

More consistent navigation and selection focus. User and AI cameras work independently.

04

More dependable motion & captures

Improved joint rotation handling, pose updates and consistency between the selected pose and its captured image.

05

A steadier MCP workflow

Clearer connection feedback, explicit manual control, fewer repeated requests and batch edits with Undo.

06

More reliable everyday actions

Refined project opening, orthographic view requests, hierarchy placement and inspection feedback, including results that need further checking.
