Blendshapes

Would it be worth it to have variables for different avatar blendshapes (for body shape, not things like face tracking or visemes)? After experimenting I found it useful for syncing them between meshes but it could also be used for applying those blendshapes to any separate clothing too. -- Socksthefennec (talk) 06:19, 18 October 2025 (UTC)

I don't think those should be part of Avatar Standard. (Even if in theory a good idea). Imo AVI-S should only include variables that can be universal between Avatars.
But having those variables on the "Avatar/" namespace should be fine. Systems that know those vars /are made for the avatar could take advantage of those blend shape vars.
I for example use Variables on the Kitavali ears to reference the Dynamic bone Chains for detecting if they are grabbed trough a system.
