After many ages, the prophecy has been fulfilled and I created my first tutorial on how to use my addon called mecaface!

This is a basic tutorial showing how to get it, install it, how to add it to a character, how to solve basic problems, and how to use the face rig itself, including making custom eyebrows! I plan to make a more advanced tutorial soon!

Wow. Thanks for this. I’ve been using this for about three weeks. I had no idea about the ability to do the custom eyebrows. That’s awesome. I had to watch it at quarter speed to keep up with your clicks, but that’s an easy fix. Thanks so much for posting this. I’m looking forward to your lip sync video as well as the updated face rig.

@RayAvidLebon 7 месяцев назад

Is this compatible with exporting to game engines like Unity? I'm trying to find a way to animate similar characters that will be interactive in a game engine, but a lot of animations break when exported into game engines. (...and with as much time as animation takes as it is, it'd suck to invest time and money into using this project that looks really great only to find out it won't work and start over from square one.)

@conceptbymehdi Месяц назад

Thanks a million for this amazing tutorial, I've recently bought the Meca-Face Addon for blender, but when I tried to rig a face for my project, I noticed that the teeth, tongue and eye pupils of the character don't have any colors. So I decided to apply the desired color to them but I couldn't because of an error which I have no clue what it says... You know what the problem might be? Or do you know any solution to resolve this issue? Thanks❤❤😍😍

anyone coming to this with more recent versions of everything - I have it working on blender 3.6, mecabrick lite - Part that got me stuck was it WILL NOT parent, or shrinkwrap to other objects that are NOT minifig from my import. I have to dive into if the object names are what it looks for. but if you have default cube, or anything else basic. It will just plop it above it and parent. BUT when minifigs are imported from meca with the add-on. the face rig goes onto the head and body mesh one click. so it works still, just a bit finicky.
