Eye movement (NO RIGS)

[OfficialMCQP 0]

I found a way to make eye movements without rigs! I don't know if this has been used before, but here it is:

Grab a skin .png file and open it in any skin editing software that you use (for example, paint.net) Plop yoir skin down and do the following:Edit your skins eyes in these ways (Squinting up, down, looking left, right, closing eyes up and down.) on different copies of the same skin

Next, create one main human in mine-imator, and create copies of that human with these eye edits, make sure to hide the copies!

Create a first keyframe At 0. You then select any frame which you want your human to blink, for example, 5. Select the human and go under texture, it should let you change your humans skin to steve, and any other human in the project (this is why you need the copies). In this example, you would select frame 5, set the skin to eyes closed, and at frame ten, set it back to open. Repeat this at different frames for a cycle. I hope this helped you and gave you some ideas! If you have any questions, feel free to ask! (Link to youtube video will come soon for an example of a finished product)  NOTE: skins with two pixel eyes are disadvantaged to only looking both directions and closing. Face rigs are a slightly difficult alternative.

This is what we like to call "phenomes" phonemes and Voxy made a rig on this idea. It works, but the style may look a bit funny.

And? Don't mean to spark anything, but I don't see that as anything.

In my own opinionwhat else would it beit looks rather ugly and highly un-natural. I would prefer it if it were farther down. In the wrist area perhaps. hint hint
