I think I'm done with the topology changes, so I had another go at transferring Antonia's existing rigging in the fitting room. Looking pretty good, as far as I've checked so far.
- Groups have carried over nicely except for the eyes which had some of their polys assigned to the head. I don't know a software that's good at editing poly groups directly except maybe Wings (but honestly, I can't remember, it's been too long), but there are workarounds.
- The jaw WMs look good except for the usual isolated vertex out of place on the upper lip, which I can fix very easily.
- JCMs mostly look good, but will need a tad of cleaning up. Probably not too much work, so I'll have a go at it even though eventually I'd like to weight-map the figure and dial down JCM usage to a minimum.
- Other morphs seem to generally transfer well, including the expression morphs. But I might reload those from OBJs anyway, just to be on the safe side.
I think that's everything. Here's a test render:
For the real transfer, I'll start with a stripped-down version of the Antonia 1.2 CR2 and add details back by and by using whichever method works best for the task at hand.
