Hive Autorigger now with joint-based eyes and brows! Among many other features added last year... tinyurl.com/zooUpgrades #zootools #zootoolspro #adskmaya

@CryptoYulin Our discord is here discord.gg/JsDn9df4QE

@AnimatorWilson @prashantt72 @Cruel_Hamst3r Yes, Hive's eyes and brows are now fully joint-based. We also have a jaw for blend shapes; the mouth component is up next, and it's our most requested feature. create3dcharacters.com/2024/10/21/new…

@prashantt72 @Cruel_Hamst3r Is it comfortable to rig faces ? Hard to find an autorigger that is mostly bone based for faces

@Ghala_Alkhalaf Hi @Ghala_Alkhalaf, sorry I missed this. At the moment, the only way is to use the live link/FBX. Otherwise, you can rig the skeleton using a control rig, but we don't have an automatic setup.

@Create3dChara Hello! hope you doing well. I have a quick question. Is it possible to export a control rig and import it into Unreal Engine while retaining full control, or is the only way to achieve this through Unreal Live Link? Thank you in advance for your help!

@PaulLivianART Yes, Zoo Tools does not yet support Maya 2025. We need to handle a significant UI backend change, which shouldn't take long. The current ETA is a few weeks while we roll out the first Hive facial components.

@Create3dChara Hi, I m trying to install zootools 2.8.1 into Maya 2025 but it is giving me "No module named 'PySide2'" error when I drag it into the software. Did you release any version for 2025 or it isnt out yet ?

Zoo Tools 2.8.5 is out! Motion-capture transfer, snap third-party skeletons to Hive Autorigger, Match And Bake Animation tool, and volume on Hive’s bendy limbs, a fix to Zoo Chat GPT and loads of new Hive training + more! tinyurl.com/zoo285 #zootools #zootoolspro #adskmaya
