Senua Rigging Reel: Hellblade II Rigging, deformation, and facial systems. This reel focuses on Senua, I contributed to the rigging and tech for all characters: youtu.be/pYhNsC2JFIc?si… #Hellblade2 #Rigging #TechArt #FacialRigging #GameDev #Maya #UnrealEngine #XboxGameStudios

Updated Bifrost rigging module incoming. #maya3d #rigtip help.autodesk.com/view/BIFROST/E…

"This is very useful when assembling rig parts and teaking joint / control count. You could use the graph's terminal too of course, but this lets you see the resulting Maya rig interactively."

It might not always seem like we’re active, but we’re working non-stop behind the scenes. Just a month ago, we hit 1,500 models in our Face Scan Library — today, we’ve already passed 1,600. We know the library can be challenging to use. Raw scans require a lot of work to become

I have some big news! The technology and IP behind ngSkinTools have been acquired by Autodesk and their team is planning for native Maya integration for the future. While it’s a bit early for further details, I’m excited to share this update: ngskintools.com/about/

You can now sculpt correctives right in-engine. And then drive them at run-time with a Spherical Pose Reader!

I wrote a bit about the many features I worked on at Unity Technologies 2009-2020, while the company grew from 20 to 3000 people. Get a peek behind the scenes of some familiar Unity features, as well as a few that never shipped. runevision.com/tech/unitywork/ #gamedev #unity3d

Just got a Bitlocker recovery screen on my laptop when I started it up. I didn't even think it was enabled and I have no clue about my recovery key. Shit. Last time I booted up my laptop I did a USB live boot of Linux Mint to test. And I edited my BIOS boot order. Aaargh.

#PurplePuppet ❤️ #UnrealEngine5 Here’s a glimpse at some of the Unreal Engine projects we’ve worked on over the past few years. #outsourcing #gamedev #charart #rigging #techart #3dart

Indeed Unreal Engine is moving to Left-Up-Forward coordinates everywhere, starting with UEFN, and coming to UE5-6 in an incrementally-adoptable way through UI settings and C++ helper functions/macros to ease the transition. This will align Unreal with Y-Up, right handed

You can procedurally instantiate rigid bodies inside #ControlRig with support for world collision, motors and constraints. This is the most impactful 5.6 feature imho. It opens up a ton of powered ragdoll techniques.

So crazy to see these weird things I've been making over the past few years pop up. Quite the crazy day!!! Thanks IGN

You can create blend shapes directly in #Unreal 5.6 with the new Morph Target Editing Tools, and it also works with PIE in realtime. 🥧 #controlrig #animation #rigging #unreal5 #ue5

Excellent introduction to Choosers in #UnrealEngine. Massively simplify animation graphs by separating clip selection from states. Also combine it with a Blend Stack to robustly handle rapidly transitioning between states. So much cleaner.
