Some Good News in Dark Times

Howdy!

I hope you are all staying healthy and safe. I am still transferring all of the animation over to Talia's final high resolution model. I had to animate all of her flexes and such. Almost done with this, and then the final step before simming water would be to make sure her fingers don't penetrate her body.

Still no news on Lightwave 2020. This release delay is starting to become an absurd parody of itsself! But I did find this posted in January:

Anyway now for some good news... I sent a message to the Storm developers, asking about the progress on the Point Deformer feature of Storm. This was his reply:

I'm still working on some framework updates. I'm planning to work on the deformer this month, and hope to have it ready this or next month!

I'll let you know via mail or the forum about this happening.

I am so excited about this! True soft bodies are coming soon! This is going to open so many doors.. Larger body sizes, easier muscle growth, shrink-wrapped skin over muscle, fuller hair, and true self-collisions. This very likely means my next girl will be another generational leap forward in musclechick tech! :D

Anyway... Talia is looking awesome and of course this will be my first animation using Storm (for liquids). I'll have more news for you soon as I finish her up. Thank you all so much for your amazing support. I have some idea of how bleak things are getting out there and I just wanted to say thank you for sticking with me. Anyway, I'll stop gushing all over you (with storm liquids). More to come!

P.S. Oh yeah, happy Easter.
