Alpha 8 and MakeHuman 1 and expressions...

[Fred Astair]

I have a quick question about using the A8 models and their lack of expressions.

I'm wondering, if I create characters using A8 models now,when they don't have expressions turned on, will I be able to load them into future MakeHuman releases that do have expressions, and in doing so, activate them with expressions?

I'm asking because I'm trying to learn how to design clothes for A8 characters, and also to create models I'd like to use, but they don't have expressions yet. I understand that that day will come when they will have expressions, and I'd like to press forward with creating my models and one day use them with expressions, rather than having to redesign them and their clothes all over again.

Yes, files saved in MakeHuman (.mhm) will stay compatible with future versions.
Of course this does not count for exported file formats.

Proxy objects such as clothes will remain compatible as well.
