Thank you. If this something for you, be sure to check the past posts and also updating videos. It should give you a good overview.

Yes, it’s currently in development beta and it’s a whole lot more than just drivers. SHAPES has been around for Maya for over 10 years and is used by many studios of all sizes for shape keys and more. And now it’s time to bring it to blender.

#SHAPES for #Blender: Quick Tip 14

Combination shapes are a solid and fast solution to fix deformation issues when two or more active shapes interact. SHAPES provides a solid workflow for creating and managing combos.

Had a great chat with the Purple Puppet team purplepuppet.com about the upcoming #SHAPES shape-key editor for #blender3d today. Thanks for the great feedback.

#SHAPES for #Blender3d: Quick Tip 13

Easily overlooked: Blend Preview! Shape keys aren’t just about shape, but also about motion. A shape may look fine, but animation can show bad vertex movement. Repeated tweaks/checks are required 'til the deformation is final.

Oh, yes it will be!

Since I’m still working on it it’s not yet available. But if you got through Gumroad you’ll be notified when it’s out.

(2/2)… all related shape keys. This means that with a click of a button you get a comple and mirrored setup. This is especially helpful if you have quite some poses attached to your RBF.
Dots this answer your question?

If i understand correctly this is exactly what happens here. The RBF setup, driven by a constrained pose bone and the driving shape keys, gets mirrored across. This creates a mirrored RBF Nodes group, mirrors all driver poses, references the opposite pose bone, and creates… (1/2)

🔥📣Just finished:
- Full integration of #RBFNodes into SHAPES for #Blender3d
- RBFNodes working with constraints.
- Mirroring of a complete RBFNodes setup with all shape keys.
- RBFNodes working with only two poses.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the shout out!

And it will even get better because the upcoming version supports constrained driver objects and and scene linking. This will be a huge step forward!

I just found out about the RBF Nodes addon by @braverabbit.bsky.social and all I can say is that there are some addons you don't know you need till you get to know of them. This addon is somewhat sorcery.

Easily remove partial shape key data to clean up shapes or remove unwanted influences. Makes use of selecting vertices which are affected by the shape key.

#SHAPES for #Blender: Quick Tip 11

Filter by Value is a highly useful and powerful, yet underrated feature. You can easily filter either partial or full values. This helps to find currently active channels when dealing with large rigs.

Making some good progress with the core functions of #SHAPES for #Blender
Doesn't look like much but these pretty important for many workflows.

The next steps are Combos and supporting the #RBFNodes add-on as a driver. I already have a version which finally supports constraints and also works in linked scenes. So, getting this all working has high-priority!
