Hey,
so just a quick update from my side. PoseViewer 2.1 is done and we are very happy about it :) Now I can finally 100% focus on EP7. And my coder friend is busy working on locomotion in UE5 for the next game ;)
So for EP7 I will finish the Facial Mocap + Cleanup next week. I posted a picture in the Header for you to see how it currently looks in Maya. Then I will start assemble everything and do a final polishing pass (fingers need to be animated as well). I am also currently trying to fix stuff on the rigs for the new characters. The rigging system I have been using so far is breaking things with the latest version (old one is not available any more). That´s how old vs new looks like:

I am in contact with the developer but it´s a slow and time consuming process. Again, another thing that eats up time that I would prefer spending on animating. But it´s necessary because: no rigs for the new characters, no animation.
I also found a nice video explaining a bit the difficulties about Motion Capture. It's a good explanation if you are not aware and interested.
Also, we get help with Outfits for EP7. They are all designed, just need to be created as well ;) The good thing is, that I can work in parallel with the Outsourcers because I don´t need the outfits for the animations. So that is very efficient :)
I will also take a break end of August. Summer holidays for my kid are almost over and I did not spend enough time with the family. I have been working 70+ hours the last couple of weeks because I try to compensate the delays from other people. On top of all kinds of stuff with our place (heating needed changing, insulation of the roof because we are grilled when it´s hot, and tons of other small stuff) and troubleshooting rig/engine, all kinds of other things.
Long story short: a break is a bit overdue :)
And I also wanted to thank you for your ongoing and amazing support!
We are very blessed with you as community and really appreciate that with your support we can realize our projects. Many many thanks!
Ok, go enjoy PoseViewer 2.1 now ;) Oh, and we will have a trailer also soon, that will definitely rock!
All the very best and have a nice weekend!

PS: An interview with Trinity is also in the works, but that will be done after EP7. Marie already works on the script for that with the answers to your questions! And we will make a nice Jerk-Off instruction video with Brittany after that ;)
