♛ Mesh & Rigging Improvements:

  • New "Mouth Space" surface allows for completely new or custom teeth to be added if desired.
  • Updated lower lip and chin for better deformation!
  • Updated upper eyelid rigging for smoother eye closure.

♛ Eye Control:

  • Glint can now be resized or shifted up or down.
  • Sclera (eye white) can now be resized or shifted up or down — a critically important feature for making various eye shapes look realistic.

♛ New Mouth Openers

  • Several Mouth Opener animations (including chew) are now available.

♛ Eye Blinking and Other Built-In Animation Controls:

  • Ambient animations can now be turned on/off.
  • Adjustable blinking frequency (with the option to turn it off).
    • (Emo HUD overrides blinking when needed.)
  • Eyes can be closed using a calibratable eye closer.

♛ Shapers:

  • Added chin shaping option.
  • Added upper and lower lip shaping options.
  • More control over nose shape (upper/lower bridge shapes) with smoother deformation.
  • 13 new ear shapers.

♛ Hiders:

  • Ears can be hidden separately.
    • Makes it easier to wear just one add-on and keep the other ear as built-in. (Previously, one had to wear an Ear Default L or R to achieve that.)
    • Makes it possible to mix-match add-ons that require different kind of hiding.

♛ Mouth Osei v3:

New mouth has improved mesh and textures, including new teeth and tongue meshes.
  • New mouth follows shape changes — lower teeth no longer poke through the chin, allowing for a wider range of head shapes and characters.

♛ Emo HUD Changes:

  • New Emo HUD system with 300 brand new animations to express a wide range of human emotions.
  • Smoother, more realistic glitch-free animations!!!
  • Emo HUD play modes allow mixing emotions (1 to 6 at a time).
  • Ability to control intensity mixing of emotions.
  • Emo HUD control for emotion wheel size and position.
  • Emo HUD backdrop options and background color customization.
  • Emo HUD includes an eraser and selection controls for the number of simultaneous emotions (1–6).
