Dynamic Heads & Facial Animation Preview Beta

How do I use the faces? I cannot figure it out.

It’s currently in beta, right now we only have access to it through Studio beta features.

These look somewhat scary, but at the same time I think it looks pretty cool. I think this has a lot of potential.

I have the beta of it and cannot figure it out.

It can only be used for NPCs in Roblox Studio at the moment I think, because we cannot use them on our Roblox avatars in public experiences just yet.

Yea already tried using it onto an npc.

Are we able to export this rig into blender?

@3rdhoan123 I asked the same question here, and it appears that we will be able to export this new rig into Blender. I think the new hands, will be the only major change with making animations or renders in Blender.

Woah, you did all that with a script?
really creative and impressive :+1:

IMO, I feel this face should be redone or given some slight definition around the eyes and lips like the outlined version of this one. It’s a bit creepy looking and doesn’t feel natural to look at.

Suggestion: In the animation editor you should be able to add sound from which an audiogram is then generated. Based on this audiogram you can then set your keyframes and synchronize the animation with the sound. Imagine the following: The avatar is impressed and says: “Wooooooooow”. You upload the corresponding sound file in the editor, synchronize the lip movement and create the animation. Then you could just let the animation play by script and everything is perfectly synchronized.

If this is implemented, you could then also automatically generate keyframes based on the audiogram (like in Adobe After Effects) For example: high frequency = eyes open and low frequency = eyes closed.

Eye blinking is super easy. Set the priority to “Core.” Animate one blink. Hit play and forget about it.

as long as it remains an option to stay with the usual faces, then its alright for me

i got no problems

but if the normal faces are thrown in the trashcan and we are forced to deal with this?

nah

knowing how roblox is, it scares me that that could become reality.

EDIT: tongues can be animated?!?!?!? oh gosh, what were you guys thinking bahahahahahaha. be prepared to beef up your moderation, because i don’t see much coming from that.
