Posts: 362 		Hi team, Muvizuers, do you think switch layers could be great for Muvizu?

I think it would be great for use with Textures, body textures.
The switch layer system would solve a lot of problems for facial animation.
What I have in mind is something like Anime Studios switch layers?

An example would be you could make different facial expressions on your texture
Map, and switch accordingly.

Another example would be Blood splats, or wounds, again, switching to that
Texture map when the blood needs to appear.
Any thoughts?

You can animate light textures for instance.

Characters action window selection.

It would work the same way you select an action, with your imported texture maps to choose from, basically another ACTION but a switch layer action, changing the characters texture map, and showing up as keyframe on the time line.....

I Thought of this after watching Dreekos ( I'm Sparticus ) and Hexslayers wonderful portrail of Terry Thomas, and thought the only way to achieve
Easy eye and facial animation with 2d images is seperate images used as switch
Layers.

If we can get this into Muvizu I think it would open up Massive interest.
