Good afternoon!
I started to try MugAnimator 6.5 with the intention of buying the Pro version, but unfortunately I can not get it to work properly!
Most of the time it does not open!
After passing the 1st small screen, open the biggest one, but it gets all black and blocks!
I have already used the various versions, 64 and 32 bits, compatibility modes and nothing!
What could be blocking the application ?!
Thanks for the help!
Regards,
AM
Hello, Do you use any antivirus or firewall that could see it as potential treat? Please msg me via facebook group and I will do my best to help you.
Hey Paul,
Can you please also add a glass clock in the next update?
Thx!
Hi,
I have an error when I add my email address and my license number, can you help me?
Thank you

Hi sir paul, please input also keychains or ref mugnets for mock up sublimations. thank you
Olá, tem mug animator para Windows 32bits?
yes. http://bit.ly/2Tlgmnb
Hello,
Tried to email support but email would not go through.
Wanted to see if there is a way to change the background that is used on a permanent basis, currently I need to change the background each time I go into the application.
Would also like to see if there is a way to change the image size on the mug, I have 15oz mugs and the image does not go top to bottom of the mug when I print them. I do not want customers stating that I am falsely advertising the mugs to look like that.
Using Mac OS version.

Hello Pawel,
J’ai acheté la version payante du logiciel il y a 10 jours mais je ne sais pas si je dois désinstaller la version gratuite ni où mettre le code d’accès. Pouvez vous m’indiquer la marche à suivre svp ?
J’en profite pour faire une suggestion en espérant que ça ne vous dérange pas : possibilité de mettre 2 images sur un mug.
Merci pour tout

Please check spam box for key. If not there, please email me asap!

Hello Shaun,
Did this ever get resolved for you? I still have this issue?
Hi, i found this software very useful, is very easy to use. Let me ask you something, there is a way to add more products? like a coffee cup, beer jar.. I´m sorry if i´m asking too much for a free software, but it would be even more amazing if we can choose more products..

Hi,
Thank you. What product do you mean?
I tried this Mockup animator before. I use a Mac. Sometimes photos would upload and sometimes they wouldn’t. If they aren’t uploading try removing all the spaces file name. Thanks for the mockup generator Paul.
Hi Paul,
Many thanks for your job, which is highly helpful for a sub mug reseller as I am.
I’ve downloaded the last version of MugAnimator (4.1), but it doesn’t work on my computer. Unfortunately, I’ve erased the previous version and now, I’m unable to produce any e-sample for my customers 🙁
I assume it’s because MugAnimator 4.1 is designed for 64bits PC configuration, when mine is on 32bits.
Could you please help me to recover a version running on 32bits.
Thanks a lot
Hi Sylvian,
Please email me and I will send you link to previous version.
regards
Hi Paul,
Thank you for replying about my previous issue, all is all right now.
Sylvain
Alas it still doesn’t work on my Mac 🙁
Please try to upload ANY photo from your DOWNLOAD folder. Please note, file name should not contain any spaces. This is know bug and I am working on it to resolve it asap.
do you have a program that will assist with printing i.e/ making sure images are printed to the correct sizes for certain mugs. or could you recommend a program
I would recommend to use adobe photoshop or adobe elements for that.
What you really need is a page layout program. Depending on your budget and desire to scale the learning curve, I’d recommend:
InDesign
Quark Xpress
If you have a Mac and a small budget, try Pages.
Awseome Job. Works a charm on windows 10 64bit. Thanks for your efforts.
thanks! Hope you enjoy using it. Tonight v.4.1 will be out with coaster and larger mugs gifs plus other small bugs fixed!
Hi Paul I didn’t use my software I bought last night the problem is that I downloaded into phone now it is not Working so can I download again so that I can install to my laptop
Hi. just used link again. it will work. you can download as many times as you wish.
all the best!
I love this program and use it all the time. Is there anyway to add a feature to select the amount of times to rotate or make it so it will repeat infinity on the gif video?
Hi, thank you!
Giff will loop while spin but it depends of software you using.
Job well done Paul, you are a true legend to me in the sublimation field.
It works a treat and looks fantastic.
Only if there were more people like you willing to help others.
You prove that it’s not always about making money, It’s about sharing your knowledge with others.
Sharing is caring.
Keep up the great work it has come a long way since the beta versions
Thank you very much! 🙂
All the best!
thank you for this Paul!! I LOVE all the new mugs and it works quite well!!
Hi Paul, im from Colombia and your app is awsome because I have a custom mugs store and it is difficult to show the customer how his mug will remain, I want to ask, is there an online version to implement it on a website? For example, the client upload their own image and see how it is and order your mug with the image that he climbed?
this is my web site, still under construction… tiendamugs.com
Tnx, blessings
Hi Jorge,
Online version is in the pipeline and it will be available for free to all. I will email all blog subscribers as soon as is online mug animator is live.
all the best
Paul
I am not able to see any images when I use this? I installed the mac version. I click image… choose the image I want on my computer and it shows nothing?
do you pick mage from your main drive?
Hi Paul,
I really appreciate your efforts, and I’m sure I must be doing something wrong… but I can’t seem to get the Mac version to work on my MacBook Pro. I’m running OS10.11.6, have re-downloaded the app several times, tried loading images as jpgs, pngs, and tiffs with no luck. All I get is an animation of a blank mug. What am I missing?
can you actually load photo to animator?
Do you choice photo from your mac drive or other partition or virtual drive? to to load image from your desktop. and let me know if it loads. I know there is a little issue with macs loading images from external drives, dopbox, google drives and other partitions then MacHD.
I resized it on 21×9 cm – 200 dpi and it works again !
It is Mac HD
Hi i tried it for a few days and it worked.
I’m trying again today to put the image on the cup but it doesn’t appear.
On mac 10.11.6
JPG and PNG file from 100 ko to 1 MO
I moticed in some cases on Mac version, images loaded from other disk them mac hd wont load. Please check if this is the case.
Regards
Paul
Downloaded Mug Animatior 3.0 for Windows, unpacked, but does not start.
I see “made with unity” and then the window just turns white and that’s it.
I use Win7 Professional 64bit
Do you run it in Admin mode?
HELLO, TELL ME THAT WHEN I WILL EXECUT, WHICH WOULD BE THE FAULT, I HAVE WINDOWS
THE GAME CRASHED.
THE CRASH REPORTE FOLDER NAMED NEXT TO GAME EXEJUTABLE.
IT WOULD BE GREAT IF YOU´ D SENT IT TO THE DEVELOPER OF THE GAME
I have downloaded and been using the Mac version and must say I am completely impressed. Very smooth flowing and really adds professionalism to my customers when they see the mock up gif. Thanks again and a great job!
Fantastic animator, many thanks for your hard work!!!
Hello, I tried it for Mac OS X 10.10, but the image doesn’t appear in the mug when I select the image…
Hi. What image you are trying? Didnyou try other file formats and image sizes?
Yes, I tried JPEG and PNG, 1 MB and 275 KB
hi when loading img make sure no spaces in name thats how it worked for me
Hi Paul,
Very useful tool. Thanks for making it available. I’m trying to use it for wrap around designs and am having trouble getting it to load certain files. Is there a size limit, preferred dimension or file type restriction?
DJ
Jog and png will work. As long as files are bot crazy huge they should load fine.
Hi Paul,
It still isn’t working for me. I’ve shrunk the file to 56kb and it still won’t load. I’m using a Mac. Are all the kinks out?
Hi Paul, I have just downloaded and tested the mac version. Great job. Just a couple of questions.
What are the proportions that are needed for the design to fill the whole mug, it is placing smaller?
I had 3 designs I wanted to test and for some reason on one out of the three would work?
Hi,
22×9.5cm works best. but also you can adjust size by dragging little arrow in the bottom right corner of the image to fill the space.
all the best
wow this is awesome!! Thanks so much Claire =)
Thank you
Wow tried it and it is very awesome, you did a really great job on the app, the only thing i think it could help is adding white magic mug because thats the comon mug they sell… i haven’t seen black magic mugs until now.
also beer mugs would be awesome clear ans frosted :3
Sorry if it is to much, but
thank you for your feedback. it will go on out “to do”list.
regards
i noticed… is there a way so that the background comes out transparent? because i wanted to put a custom image but the blank square did not let me…. and it produces around 160 photograms D: to try and remove individually the blank spaces.
Regards
any news on mac one yet thanks
in the test now
mockup with reddish tones, not getting white or black but reddish.
Can you provide screenshot please?
Thank you very much!
You are welcome. Hope you find it useful.
Paul
Thank you – very kind to give away.
Hi Thanks for the animator it works well

This is desktop app. But whatever you create with it, feel free to post anywhere you wish!
I ditto those above and would love a Mac version too!
THANK YOU so much for this update!!! It really works well!
Thanks so much, Paul. Looks and works GREAT 🙂
How about a Mac version?
