Add Shape key transfer #69

Open fblah opened 5 years ago

fblah commented 5 years ago

When creating MB lab characters you might want to add meshes such as moustache, eye brows and clothes which add better detail to the character. However these added meshes do not get driven by shape key movements such as the breathing and mouth movements. It becomes necessary to create additional shape keys for the new meshes.

I have created a solution specifically for this purpose. By using shape key transfer plugin you can transfer shape keys by overlapping meshes and using a volume of influence to transfer shape keys.

However I am fairly new to writing blender plugins and having difficulties updating it to work with the new Blender 2.8.

It will be helpful if you can integrate shape key transfer in updated MBLab versions as I feel this is very basic necessity to improve and aid character creation.

I can also refactor the code with some guidance. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks & Regards, fBlah

Interesting. If my guess is correct, it could have other uses. I might take a look at it when Im done with the part Im currently working on, which will take a while.
