Indeed, when I saw the video, I was quite inspired to see proof that one of the ideas I'd been thinking about is actually doable, that it can large work as I'd always envisioned.<br /><br />The problems with eulers is indeed something we need to look into more - I'm a little surprised just how much this seems to be a massive issue with current tools.<br /><br />As for complex rigs - It really depends a lot on *how* that complex rig was set up. Some rigs (like BlenRig) were set up to be used in a very different way, so of course they may end up feeling more than a little awkward to use. On the other hand, I get the feeling that a lot of the complex rigs we have now are because the basic tools we have are inadequate - because manipulating in FK is a pain, IK is useful in cases but needs to be heavily constrained, so a balance between these (with weird control structures, and more and more "extra bones") are needed to countercorrect for the problems with using either one directly.Aligorithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11379156223939123157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978356510587112308.post-40914339464418583822016-06-08T08:23:14.660+12:002016-06-08T08:23:14.660+12:00This is awesome! Thank you for this work. As an an...This is awesome! Thank you for this work. As an animator, the manipulation of motion graphs (as show in the mentioned siggraph video) is indeed very interesting, even more so than pose sculpting itself (I'm sceptical about euler transforms misbehaving in animations, or how well this works with complex rigs). Anyhow, great work, and please continue this development, I can't wait to try this stuff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
