Quote - The rigging on the other hand is a very fundamental thing, and probably not something that most of the community is able to contribute towards. I think it is probably best to get the rigging and JCM sorted first. And especially as this may have implications for anyone developing conforming clothing for Antonia.

You're probably right, and I guess I just needed to hear that again. :laugh: It makes me feel a bit bad that Antonia still has so little in the way of expressions, but it probably makes sense to take care of her posing abilities first.

My thinking was that since I expect a relatively small fraction of all conforming clothing items to cover any or all of the neck, ankles and wrists, it might not hurt too much in that respect to leave the fine-tuning of these for later if users were eager for more facial expressiveness.

But in fact there's a lot of emotion that can be conveyed by just the posing of the head and eyes, so improving on the former will definitely help. And we already have some very nice expression morphs by Joel and Laurie that can be used in the meantime, even though because of the 'head bobbing' problem, Joel's should not be taken as a basis for other morphs.
