Not an exhaust list of features, don't forget to poke around and find additional settings.
Rig Isolation: toggle UP to isolate rig region; toggle DOWN to hide region. Zero to reset rig.

Rig management in viewport.
Rig regions can be individually hidden or isolated. Isolating one region autohides other regions, and xray UI and PV controllers. Also proxy meshes. Feature built-in, no script install/setup for user.
#rigging #technicalanimation #mgearframework
yea the '.alwaysDrawOnTop' toggle. you're right xray the PV controllers sounds much more useful than xraying the entire section.
that does sound useful! though seems like it'd be easier to implement in a game engine than Maya
Bashing together a rig component isolation feature for viewport declutter

Dog fooding continues: Some minor skinweight fixes. Switched to Standard Shader. Hooked up outfit switch. Bashing some new feature. Getting closer with every new line in notepad++

Some fun rigging over the weekend

I like how many game developers are increasingly also tired of this shit store.steampowered.com/app/4200110
Hello Shiv my old friend, I've come to rig you again
#rigging #animation #technicalanimation #deadlock
Funny how "I'll take a quick look" turns into "hours and hours in notepad++"
Now that I know how to mirror the controls for cable component, I can simplify the face rig a bit. Less viewport clutter, less complexity. I'll take the win.
#technicalanimation #mgearframework #rigging
Quite happy with how this face rig is turning out, especially the Nasal Labial Fold. Just have to wrap it up with post build scripts and default values.
#animation #rigging #FACS #technicalanimation #mgearframework
Nasal labial fold and Corrugator. Just a few additional bones and verts. Nose wrinkler can be handled similarly.

100% gratuitous rig feature

I think I've had my fill of this song for a lifetime... Identified some issues to fix for next rig build.
#animation #rigging #technicalanimation
More dog-fooding, just blockout pass so far, but it's working better than I anticipated.

When rigging it's important to check your progress frequently using the Wiggle Test®
#rigging #technicalanimation #maya
Rigging, rigging never changes...

Alternatively you can animate the UV offset of the noise node instead of Time attribute
How do you animate wind?
Noise node! Use it to drive rotation axis of the control, adjust Frequency; Frequency Ratio; Depth Max parameters etc. Animate Time attribute.
If the rig doesn't have dynamics, bake the curve, paste and offset!

How is the sauce made?
Character is in place; ground is static; trees and tombstones scroll past the character; moon is small plane; big church and camera slide toward center.
All smoke and mirrors...

Some highlights from 2025. An unexpected sabbatical year gave me time to advance my animation and technical animation skills.
2026 lets fuckin GO!

Gonna park it here for now. Maybe come back for some more mographic passes in the new year.

With Critical Reflex being such a major player in the indie space, these accusations of covered up sexual harassment and unfair labour practices are all deeply disappointing and distressing. I hope this all gets tackled quickly and decisively.
