Still alive, just moving slowly
Added 2021-08-02 18:12:52 +0000 UTCThe past month I was counting on the rig to be fully working but there were several issues(ex. not practical to use), after looking for solutions, I started looking for replacements and finally, "bite the bullet" and assumed that a combination of a rig(probably multiple ones) and deformations/Blendshapes are required
The reason why the characters on some games(especially if the character isn't close) don't have facial expressions it's because they use a rig just for the body, it's the standard. Why not for the face too? well, you can, but the complexity of the face will probably be higher than the rest of the body and there're some limitations based on bones/polygons
Blendshapes seems the way to go for facial expressions, so it's what I'm working on right now. It's in fact what many games with facial expressions use nowadays. The body ain't a problem, it's mostly automatic, genitalia/breast/hair on the other hand will require some work
The initial idea was to publish the monthly update with some examples but it's going to take me more time(story of my life). Not too much tho because it's pretty common stuff
As usual, this Patreon remains paused
See ya soon :)
