Simplify

If the model provides this function, you can enable this feature. More information in the dedicated user guide page.

If the model does not provide a Simplify panel, you can try to enable it yourself. Check the Developer guide for more information.

Clean Model tool

This tool cleans some settings and meshes in order to make the model lighter. Note that using this tool might delete some features of the model.

You can find the Clean model tool in the Developement Panel, after enabling Developer Tools in the addon settings.

The tool settings are the following.

  • Deleted Unselected Outfits/Extras/Hair: with this option you can delete all the Outfits/Extras/Hair from the scene, except the ones selected in MustardUI. The tool will completely delete all data related to those objects. You might need to go to File -> Clean Up -> Recursive Un-used Data Blocks to remove also materials and images associated with the objects.
  • Remove Body/Outfit/Hair Custom Properties: with this option you delete all custom properties of the selected categories from the UI. This will delete data only in the UI, and will not modify or delete any external object/property.
  • Remove Morphs: if the model has the Diffeomorphic support enabled, and you have Diffeomorphic installed, you can remove all the Morphs from the model. This might solve some stuttering and performance problems of the model, at the price of not being able to use the Morphs anymore. The tool will try to preserve the face controllers if Remove Face Rig Morphs is disabled (although some bone based controllers might not work after cleaning). Similarly, the tool preserves the corrective morphs if you deselect the Remove Corrective Morphs option. Finally, since the tool do not delete shape keys associated to Morphs by default, you can also decide to Remove Shape Keys from the model.
  • Remove Diffeomorphic Data: with this option you can delete all Diffeomorphic data on the model and the outfits. After using this option, you will not be able to use Diffeomorphic to import new outfits or morphs, and the Morphs panel will not be available in Diffeomorphic anymore. However, this tool do not remove Face controllers and Morphs. I advice to use this option before starting a still/animation to get some additional FPS (boost can vary from model to model), if you are sure that you do not need Diffeomorphic Tools anymore.
