From 49aeee5a3dfa9fc0ae29e99f7c5c0cc0124e560e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joshua Leung Date: Wed, 18 May 2016 03:19:06 +1200 Subject: Bendy Bones: Advanced B-Bones for Easier + Simple Rigging This commit/patch/branch brings a bunch of powerful new options for B-Bones and for working with B-Bones, making it easier for animators to create their own rigs, using fewer bones (which also means hopefully lighter + faster rigs ;) This functionality was first demoed by Daniel at BConf15 Some highlights from this patch include: * You can now directly control the shape of B-Bones using a series of properties instead of being restricted to trying to indirectly control them through the neighbouring bones. See the "Bendy Bones" panel... * B-Bones can be shaped in EditMode to define a "curved rest pose" for the bone. This is useful for things like eyebrows and mouths/eyelids * You can now make B-Bones use custom bones as their reference bone handles, instead of only using the parent/child bones. To do so, enable the "Use Custom Reference Handles" toggle. If none are specified, then the BBone will only use the Bendy Bone properties. * Constraints Head/Tail option can now slide along the B-Bone shape, instead of just linearly interpolating between the endpoints of the bone.
