Patreon isn't working for a video post, so here's a link to the video: https://vimeo.com/221312615
Busy week. Got some feedback on the last build.
The hair sliders for "In" are renamed to "Length" as that's more appropriate.
I've added some buttons that open up a list detailing some of the hotkeys for the shape manipulation. Ctrl + z to undo. Ctrl + y to redo. Holding L-Alt + Click/Drag will now move the translation tool at 10% speed, which will allow for much finer control of the face and body shapes. Holding shift lets you scale in all directions.
I've also started working on some clothes. This was quite a bit of fiddly work. The clothes are mostly just a mesh wrapping the body. This clothes mesh shares all the bones and blendshapes of the body so that whenever I make any clothes, they can be worn by any character. It was fiddly because I had to make sure that the body didn't clip through the clothes as it animates.
The clothes will also have some additional sliders that affect their shape. This should really cut down on the work of making clothes that fit all characters without having to futz about with the male/female/fat/etc blendshapes for each piece of clothing. The differences in clothing can be done mostly through the additional blendshapes and textures.
