FAQs - Mustard2/MustardUI GitHub Wiki

Do I have to install something to use the UI?

In order to use the UI, you need to install the MustardUI addon from the Blender Extensions website.

After appending the model, I can’t see the UI

Check if Viewport Model Selection is enabled. Click on the Armature of the appended Object and look for the Model Selection panel in MustardUI.

If even selecting the model Armature, MustardUI does not appear, try to save the model, and restart Blender. Sometime creators forget to disable the Configuration mode, and this procedure should fix this.

Morphs are not preserved when I disable them.

When you disable the morphs in the default settings, also shape keys are disabled to increase performance. You can change this behaviour disabling the Mute Shape Keys setting (see the Morphs Panel, MustardUI and Tools -> Morphs for more details).

My shape key drivers are not working when I disable the Morphs.

By default, when you disable the Morphs, all drivers are disabled to increase performance. You can choose to keep some drivers enabled by adding the string “MustardUINotDisable”.

For instance, if you have a shape key named “Hand” with a driver you made on it, just rename it “MustardUINotDisable Hand”, and the driver will work even if you disable the Morphs.

Armature Modifiers are turned off when switching Outfits/Outfits are not following the Armature

Armature modifiers can impact performance even if the linked object is not visible in the scene. Therefore, MustardUI automatically turn off the Armature modifiers of the Outfits not used when you switch Outfits. Therefore if you manually enable/disable collections containing Outfits, these will not follow the Armature because its modifier is disabled.

To solve this when you manually switch Outfits from the Outliner:

  • enable manually the Armature modifier; or
  • switch to another outfit in MustardUi and back. This should revert the correct status of Armature modifiers.

If you want to disable this feature, enable Advanced Options (Settings panel) and disable the option in the Outfit panel.

Can I modify MustardUI myself? Even if the model has been created by someone else?

Sure you can! The Configuration panel is in the Settings (if Maintenance Tools is enabled). Just click on the UI Configuration button, and start modifying the UI. More informations are available on the GitHib Configuration guide.
