Facial Expressions in the Current Version (1.0.2)?

Postby thebombman53 » Mon Oct 13, 2014 2:15 am

After a Google search, I've come across this page (http://www.makehuman.org/doc/node/mhx_expressions.html), which is said to be obsolete. The redirect link doesn't take me to a comparable page for facial expressions though.

I have also tried following this tutorial (http://forum.makehuman.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=10114), but have found it to be sparse, and lacking a lot of the practical info I need to know to do facial rigging.

I have two questions:
1. Can facial expressions be done in the current version of MakeHuman? If so, how exactly? Are there tutorials or documentation for this?
2. Does anyone know of a better (more complete) facial rigging tutorial for blender? It would be incredibly helpful if so.

Thanks in advance!

I've uploaded several Blender files with full facial rigging--both Thomas' and mine--and you can feel free to use them. :)

The current version of MakeHuman does not support exporting facial expressions but we're working hard on them, and making good progress.
Here's an (outdated) teaser of what's to come: http://www.makehuman.org/blog/makehuman ... ender.html

In the unofficial MHX2 plugins for blender you already have facial expressions available. I do not know what their quality is, though.

What exactly are these, and where can they be found?
