Progress report
🕑 Added 2025-02-01 23:45:23 +0000 UTCTime for a monthly update.
Well first of all, there were a couple video requests that were fulfilled, one of them being a remake of an 8 year old dance video, coincidentally one of my early favorite vocaloid songs or at least I think it is a vocaloid song since the version I have is not sang by a vocaloid, the song is “Shoujo Misui”.
The video is already in the download folders, check it out if you have some free time.
Rig Update
For those of you who have my Blender rig, there was an update to the IK arm mechanism, specifically the bones that handle the twist of the arm while using IK controls, this was updated back in December, the only change was to a bone called “IK-INT-Arm-Twist” in the IK INT layer, the bone now uses a Transformation constraint instead of a copy rotation one, you can download the rig again and compare the settings to apply to yours.
And this last week there was another improvement to the automatic neck mechanism, I demonstrated the problem I fixed and how to do the fix in your EPMX models in this video because I know you probably be reluctant to re-attach the rig no your models again, the fix takes less than a minute to apply so nothing to worry about that, I of course included a capture of my keystrokes to make it easier to follow although for some reason when I use copy and paste keyboard shortcuts, it doesn’t show but since I only use those to copy and paste names you’ll know where I used them.
All of the EPMX models in the download folders already have this updates applied and speaking of which.
New EPMX models are ready
Other news
I’ve been having a few hiccups here but fortunately they were minor annoyances, I had to buy a new mouse again because everything is built like crap nowadays and I can’t really work that well when I can’t hold my mouse button without it clicking 2 or 3 times randomly.
On the good side, after years of teasing from my ISP, I finally have optic fiber internet in my home, so the door to using render farms for Blender renders is now open, we’ll see how that goes, now that I have 25 times faster download speed and 100 times faster upload, at the very least uploading stuff is much more manageable.
Next update will be for the release of the new animation if nothing gets in the way, now time to go back to animating, thanks for your continued support and patience.
