SFR [Universal Face Rig]

[SKIBBZ 9.1k]

Before I say anything, I just want to give a shout to @Nimi for basically teaching me the wonders of alpha rigs.

So check out his Mouth Rig he made which inspired me to transition to these kind of facial rigs. 

 

So basically I've made a new public facial rig that uses alpha, that's about it really.

I added some variety with this rig, this rig has more rounded sides for the mouth and the eyes. That's pretty much what makes it different I guess.

 

A little run through of this rig if you're curious

 

These are some expressions you could make if you use the facial rig

 

Curved mouth (Still can't smile/frown, sadly)

 

Eyelids bend

 

Also I thought this was kind of neato

 

One last little image showing the mouth scale

Within the download link comes with my private character rig which he currently is in V.4 for those that want to have my character for animations. If not, just don't worry about it.

Awesome/Interesting contribution to the community Skibbz!

 

But actually, you could make it smile. Lemme explain... From what I've seen, you're basically adding more objects to the square mouth to control it's shape, so why not adding another cube (instead of a cylinder) with a custom rotation point to give it a smile? Have this image:

You could also have an arm with round bending to make the smile less blocky, instead of a cube.

i will rip  the mouth off (til blood gushes every where, then stitch it up as a creepy smile) but keep the eyes .

 

 

 

 

I use a different mouth, but good eyes. (and mouth.)

• A chin wouldn't make the rig so universal now would it. You'd have to go into the texture file(s) and change the color of the chin if that were to be added.

• If someone doesn't do it before I do, I plan to have the next facial rig I make do that.

• Interesting concept! I'll definitely take note on this. I'm still learning this stuff so thanks on giving me a pointer. I might try it with a body instead of an arm though.

• Currently you can't, but in the next release I plan to have a facial rig that can smile/frown.

• Must've been real easy to parent the facial rig to your head. I'm sure some extruding would be to icing to that player model!

Btw what does the S stand for?

EDIT: Nvm, read the Read Me.txt.

 

And as a side note: Maybe next time make the pupils round as well?

When I move the eyes down to fit my skin, the alpha makes me see right through my guy.
