Updated: Butt + Vagina Bones
🕑 Added 2024-12-26 02:39:55 +0000 UTCHello everyone! Here is how the bones looks on Blender, obviously this come with benefits but also with some negatives side effects and here are some points to take in consideration.
Pros
it definitely helps a lot in animations to be able to control the vagina or anus and not stick in the same morph
it also helps to posing too, be able to control/animated the glutes separately it gives more control
Cons
the vagina and the glutes are a geocraft ( a sepated obj from Daz but it can be merged on Blender as long it doesn't get modified) and this derivates a few problems too
no more body morphs! since its a geocraft it doesnt store the morphs from the body, a good example of this is if you tried to use lower morphs in some old models, you can see the vagina doesnt react to those morphs, this would be the same but this time around it takes part of the torso and legs
it has a bone for the abductors? if you move the leg, part of the inner thigh doesn't move, I kinda fix it parenting this bone with the leg but I have to use corrective smooth to fix some problems with the bending, Icould paint weights to fix it but it's a little bit harder and it could look worse but dont worry Im practicing a little bit to fix it with this method and not just appending it to the bone
no more softbody, this could be a win for some of you but yeah since the glutes have bones this wouldnt move properly with softbody ( the jiggle effect)
it deforms the body, this geocraft can deform some parts of the body but this can be easily fix in Blender ( see the last pic for reference)
I know it has more negative points but I think the benefit is much greater? I really wanna test this but it has to wait a little bit (this is an OC I made today lol) so I'm probably going to take one of the princesses and test her with this new feature. This is the reason why I have not move with the SF6 rework because if everyone likes this method and it actually works, I would prefer add this feature now and not make a V3 in the future lol
and don't worry if it's too complicated, I would included a pre-made morphs for the people that might find posing the vagina too confusing or complicated with this new feature C:

Well that depends on how experienced you're on Blender, some people animate the boobs and the glutes just with the bones, the morphs I always see it as something extra and not necessary but again this is me trying to improve the rig and the experience while animating or posing, there are other ideas I have to test but if this doesnt work at all I wont included in future characters

So I know this is still subject to testing, but just my two cents: no longer being able to do body morphs and soft body are MAJOR cons.
