Reverse Engineering

This is a project that NEEDS to be reverse engineered in order for the group to continue development on base models and the associated data. It is quite a complex addon, using several scripts that call upon each other for this function or that. The JSON data is what needs to be decoded, as it contains the information that is key to developing new base models.

Much of this has been decoded now by Teto, the developer that added the MB-Dev portion to MB-Lab.

Shader Project

This is a checklist of things that are done or need to do for the full shader rework.

  • New skin tone texture maps - Caucasian, Afro and Asian - DONE
  • Procedural Eyeball - Work to fix the mix between procedural and texture - DONE
  • New Textures - Redoing the texture maps for added realism - WIP
  • New Tongue shader - This needs to be made for more realism - DONE
  • New Fingernail shader - Idea to change the color of the nails - DONE
  • Edit Teeth shader - Because of the new skin tone idea, the albedo map affects teeth much like the tongue. - DONE
  • Edit Eyelash shader - This is altered because the different skin tone, make dedicated map for lashes. - DONE

Features / Ideas
