Hi Folks.


Just wondering is it possible to create morph targets in TrueSpace? They are used for facial animation, mouth, eye lids, etc. I tried searched the manual PDF's for Morph Targets but couldn't find any reference.

I think I read in the Captain's Blog that morph animation will be implemented.

I don't know the methodology they will be using, but it will be a welcomed addition when it happens.

I like another software's approach to it. Make a morph or set of morphs, then have that morph put on a slider bar, so it can be easily accessed during the making of an animation.

That's exactly what I mean, morph targets, sliderbar controls, great for animation. I take it from your reply that this feature is not currently part of TrueSpace at the moment?

Other than the plug-in Facial Animator - it's not where I have found it. :)
