Help needed with Facial Expressions and maybe mfgconsole.

[fishburger67]

I am trying to get my load order to produce expressions like this:

 

 

I have the load order of the machine that produced this and there is nothing in it except Expressive Face Gen morphs and MfgFix that I don't have (I have Expressive Facial Animation, but no MfgFix).  Both of these look like they do the same thing.  We both have Bijiin Maidens of various sorts including the one above (Riverwood Gerdur ).

 

My understanding of MfgFix is to give console commands which I am not interested in.

 

What I want is simple.  I want my NPCs to smile when the dialog has happy-80 in the dialog topic and to be sad when it is sad-80 in the dialog topic.

 

Anyone have any idea how I can get facial animations to work like above?

 

What I am trying to achieve is to have my NPCs to smile and be sad and the like.

If you speak about dialogues, then you have to code lips files. These can handle every possible facial expression, also the ones not handled directly by MFG.

If not, you can try to do something by code.

I did something a while ago to play special animations with full face animation support.

 

Not sure I still have the sources somewhere.

I built lip files for all the dialog, but no smiles like the above.  

 

Now that I think about it, that is probably not gonna achieve what I want.  The gal above is just laying there smiling.  That will likely takes some code that I don't know how to do.
