Hi, the workflow that we are exposing in this video is a way of adding dynamism, sliding, and wrinkles to your animated skin using simulation by using one single simulation layer. For that it is only required to use as target mesh the raw skinning file like you're mentioning and a cutout simulated mesh that has no animation applied to (frozen) and that will attach to the target mesh. However, your confusion might be coming from you expecting to simulate the skin on top of a simulated fascia layer. That is also completely doable if you want to simulate more complex cases for which you first simulate muscles with AdnMuscles, you simulate fascia on top using AdnSkin with multi-targets and then you simulate the rest of the layers (fat, skin, etc) with AdnSkin. We hope this helped you and we invite you to also check-out our video about simulating fascia. ruclips.net/video/WgBVK825zS0/видео.html

@@inbibo thank you ill try it

Hi! Thanks a lot for your interest in Shift. Please send us an email to shift.support@inbibo.co.uk and our team will get back to you with more information :)

Thanks a lot! We are glad to hear this new feature is working for you! Please send us an email to adonis.support@inbibo.co.uk elaborating on your comment/suggestion. Our team is always happy to hear about the user experience and learn how we can keep improving Adonis 😊

Thanks a lot for your kind words and teaching your students how to get the most out of AdonisFX! About the performance of the paint weight operation, 1.2.0 does not address anything major related to paint tool performance. However, we are constantly improving all aspects of AdonisFX so we would love to hear more about your experience via adonis.support@inbibo.co.uk Our team will be happy to answer any of your questions!

Hi there, we unfortunately do not provide the asset, only the AdonisFX software itself. In the future we may look into having a ready to use asset available through our website.

Hello, once you have your muscles set up, you can then follow the next steps: * apply the fascia on top of the muscles: ruclips.net/video/4_UdZwXbXzo/видео.html * apply the fat on top of the fascia: ruclips.net/video/C2azl6Na3kU/видео.html * apply the resulting simulation on top of the animated character: ruclips.net/video/xP4G1LC14oo/видео.html We are constantly working on new and more complete tutorials, so follow us on Linkedin and RUclips to get the latest updates.

Hello, it is possible to apply our facial simulation solution (SimShape) using Alembic GeoCaches. If you only want a simple simulation without skull collisions and muscles activations, simply apply the solver on the geocache and paint the maps to apply the simulations on the parts of the head that you are most interested in. If you want the simulation to collide and slide on the skull, you will need a geocache fo the animated skull too. Findally, if you want to apply muscles dynamics using Adonis muscle patches, you will also need to get an Alembic GeoCache for the head with only the facial expressions and no body animation. If you have further questions on how to take advantage of your AdonisFX license, contact the AdonisFX support team at: adonis.support@inbibo.co.uk

You should be able to get your hands on this in a matter days! Please check our Linked In Page for the update

Hi Nicolas, V1.1 is now out so you can finally use this feature! inbibo.co.uk/adonisfx/downloads

Hi Jacob, AdonisFX 1.1 is now out: inbibo.co.uk/adonisfx/downloads

Hi there, we have been having discussions to create a community forum for users to collaborate. Stay tuned, we are hoping to release news of this in the near future!

Hi @kumada180 thanks for the suggestion! We are planning to release Tutorials soon for simulating fascia and how to configure skin merge.. Soon after we will create a tutorial for simulating muscles, fascia and skin all combined. These should be coming in the near future!

I can supply plenty of feedback on how to improve the functionality of the current nodes if you like. Is there a forum or discord server for discussion/input on the plugin?

Hi there, we do have a variety of workflows/Tutorials for AdonisFX in Houdini, you can access an open repository here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1G_P-okXAY1CISkoQCP2UBoEZLvTlde1L We would absolutely love your feedback on the product, it's professional users who will help us to keep advancing AdonisFX. If you could write any feedback or issues you are having to adonis.support@inbibo.co.uk it really would be greatly appreciated. We are looking to open a forum/server for open discussions on AdonisFX very soon.

@@inbibo thanks for the reply. I just had a quick look at the repository and will send some feedback to the @support email. My first request is access to the skeleton and muscle geo from the demo videos and a Houdini .hip scene so the setup can be replicated and then modified

Hello, thanks for taking the time to write your opinions here. We hope that the updates delivered with AdonisFX 1.1 and more coming in 1.2 will get the results closer and closer to your requirements.

@@inbibo Thank you for your reply, I didn't mean to sound rude on my previous comments, I just have high hopes for this and I would hate to be disappointed, so far all of the videos have been pretty vague when it comes to the actual solver quality that's why, It could be great if you guys could show what this solver is capable of in a more in deep detailed video. not so much about this or that tool, but about the simulation quality so is easier to see and judge and know what to expect. Thanks again for your reply and keep it up

Hi there, thanks for the kind words! This is most certainly on our roadmap, we are working on a fat solver to provide the ability to simulate and contol fat patterns. This will be released in the future so keep your eyes peeled for updates

Hi, this is not only a great suggestion, but something we are already changing in our future released videos. We realize that for some people it could be distressing.

Hi there, currently, AdnSkin solver computes interactions against one single target geometry. However, we are working to extend this functionality to support multiple targets which would allow you to connect as many geometries as you want to work as external colliders. An update for this should be available soon

@@inbibo thats amazing im really hoping this new features arrives soon ! Thanks a lot for the quick responses , keep up the awesome work you guys are doing !

Hi, thanks for the kind words and absolutely you can get in touch with our support team if you need any help of have any technical questions. Our support email is adonis.support@inbibo.co.uk

Hi there, our initial plans have been to release AdonisFX for Maya and Houdini, however in the future we will open a poll to understand what other software to integrate Adonis into, thanks for your suggestion!

Hi, we are working to constantly increase the quality of current solvers and deliver new features and solvers to increase the breadth and quality of the results achievable with AdonisFX. Version 1.1 brings a lot of improvements that will hopefuly align better with your requirements.

i am looking forward to taht as well.. From what i saw so far i am not sure if AdonisFX have what we expect from it. Like fascia, fat and skin solvers... Not sure if it works as Ziva at all. I woul like to see muscles attached to bones and not to joints.. .sliding constraints, fascia and fat simulations on top of muscles... But maybe i am wrong.

​@@vojislavpavkovs9124 and @theanonymous2581 we are working on creating a sample scene and tutorial to show how to bring everything together. About bones attachments, they are already in the works as other features that users are requesting.

@@inbibo great to hear that! Now with Ziva out of the picture CFX really need solid solution. Looking firward to see more. Also connection with houdini is really strong and interesting concept.

Hi! We have released AdonisFX 1.1 a few days ago and this comes with better controls for fascia simulation and the ability to attach muscles to geometries! Check the latest videos and tutorials we have posted on our RUclips and Linkedin channels to learn more about it.

@@inbibo nice to know thank you

Hey there, thanks for getting in touch. Yes this project is still in development. We'll be releasing content & updates on Shift in the near future!

@@inbibo I am glad to hear that! I am looking forward to those updates 😀

Hey! We've been working hard on Shift and are starting to generate more content ramping up for v1 release! You can check out our latest teaser video here: ruclips.net/video/oonBxDlBqM4/видео.html

Thanks for your question, we are currently supporting Maya and Houdini. We are planning further integration in other software and Unreal Engine is most definitely on our radar!

Hello, it should be possible to use a muscle without activating its fibers to emulate that behavior.

@@inbibo cool!

Thats music to our ears, thank you so much!! You'll be able to purchase / download a free trial very soon. We will be releasing it for Maya initially, but the Houdini version is getting closer to release. Updates are coming on YT and Linked in soon.

It'll be available to download for Maya in the coming weeks, updates to follow in the coming days on our LinkedIn and YT channel

hey @saqib3d, just letting you know that AdonisFX is now available to download a free 30 day trial! You can get your copy here: adonisfx.inbibo.co.uk/

@@inbibo This would be excellent for something like DAZ Studio.
