Philippe, Dynamic Motion Module has some limitations when working with character animation. In the initial release, you cannot combine DMM with bones or IK. The program works by detecting collisions between individual objects in an animation. Once the collision is detected, the physical properties for the object take over. This can include elasticity, mass, velocity, or acceleration. We would be happy to mail you a disk full of samples, along with the demo version of MeshPaint 3D. The samples should give you a good idea of what DMM can do. There is an introductory offer on DMM for $399.95, which will raise to $499.95 after April 7th. We do not have student discounts (sorry, we're a small company and need simple pricing structures). Hopefully DMM will enable you to do a lot of what can only be accomplished on high-end workstations, for a lot less. Brent
