Hi all,

I'm lost on how to go about creating multiple blend shape facial expressions for a rigged character.

I've rigged a character, captured the geometry, added controls but how do I add facial expressions using blend shapes?

I want to add a few typical expressions ie. smile, angry, surprised etc..

Do I copy the captured geo sop multiple times and tweak the verts like in Maya? How do I merge it to the captured TPose character I rigged? I don't know how to go about it…

Help please?

Rigging is awesome in Houdini.. This is by far the best rigging application.

Wish facial rigging could be better explained and covered.

This is very simple : the “Blendshapes” node is before the “Bone Deform” Node

Hey,

That worked! Thanks a lot. Much easier than expected. My character isn't so lifeless now.

Appreciate the reply.

All the best!
