I'm really confuse on how to use animate 2.
And looking for answer on internet not easy too.
It's like a product with no guide.

This seems very thorough.

There's also the original Animate2 manual that you can find there on Dartenbeck's site, he's the biggest supporter of Animate 2 and very generous with his knowlege and enthusiasum. // peace
@James - Animate2 was created many years ago by the vendor GoFigure. I don’t think they are an active vendor anywhere now. GoFigure’s original series of 19 very short videos on how to use Animate2 ae still on YouTube. Go to https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0BB84111C070D080. Other YouTube videos on using Animate2 are available. Search for Animate2 in the YouTube search field.
Dreamlight created a video tutorial aniMate 2 Mastery – Complete in 2015 and it is till available in the DAZ3D store - https://www.daz3d.com/animate-2-mastery-complete.
I was really excited about animate2 so many years ago (10 or more?!). I couldn't find any useable information then, and gave up. The two Animate2-related tutorials in the store are pretty expensive when you consider the product was free at the time.
The base version is free with Daz studio but there has been a paid version ,with more aniblock creation features, for many years.
The full version is available in DS for the first thirty days, then it becomes AniMate Lite unless a full version serial number is entered.
We have brought this to the attention of Daz and they are going to make contact with the author.
