<h3>G8 OpenPoseRig, Final version, (barring bug fixes), V1.0</h3>Bunch of QOL fixes.Eliminated the 'prop bones' and managed keep the torso from exploding without them, should make it more suitable for exporting. Very weird poses can cause the torso bones to stick out at the neck but who bends both forward and backwards at the same time eh?Some quality of life refinements on the icons. Improved the skeleton thickness options. More shaping morphs, most proprtions can be adjusted in some way. If theres something you can't get it to do try scaling the bones individually. It will fit to G8F without complaint now. If you add extreme morphs the skeleton mesh will distort due to the morph projection not being able to get a 1:1 correlation but it will be usable for most things, even if it is a bit lumpy. Honestly you're better off matching the proportions using the sliders without fitting it, then saving that as a pose/morph preset.Anyway, here it is, as the French say..................................I suck at tutorials, so if anyone can write up a good work flow please do so. I'll post it in the main text.In the meantime it helps to read the version details from newest to oldest.Basically just a Pose Control stick figure rigged for G8, in the form of a scene file for Daz Studio.
