Silver Expression Tool Plus adds a few exciting new features to the Expression Tool system!
Expression Variation - Previously, morphs would ease into their target value and stay there for a set time. The Variation system adds a little bit of motion to the held expression. This can add a nice, subtle movement to these expressions that adds a touch of realism (I've exaggerated the effect a bit in the second gif to illustrate it, but it looks best with gentler settings).
3 Morph Banks - There is now a third morph bank. In Blend Mode, this will behave just like the other 2, allowing for even more variety in character expressions, but in other modes, the banks work a bit differently.
Multiple Modes - PLUS includes 3 modes of operation:
Blend Mode works much as the previous Expression Tool did. All 3 banks animate simultaneously.
In Intensity Mode, the contribution of each bank will vary depending on an Intensity value, which can be set via Trigger Actions. In this mode, place subtle expressions in bank one, slightly more intense ones in bank 2, and much more intense ones in bank 3, and your character can now alter their expressiveness dynamically!
In Trigger Mode, Banks 1 and 2 will animate continuously, but expressions in bank 3 can be triggered with a Trigger Action. This allows you to trigger reactions conditionally in response to other things going on in the scene. (see the first gif for an example of an expression being triggered).
Silver Expression Tool PLUS is available to Patrons here. Thank You!!!!!
