I'm a lousy rigger so it will be very useful for me =D Really looking forward to the armature exporter. I’m a lousy rigger so it will be very useful for me =D

No python needed. I'm on a slightly older version of Ubuntu and unless I upgrade (bit of a task at the moment) I can't run MH because my python is older. Any chance on a py2.5 compile? (please?)

The problem is to get hold on the constraint ipo from python. FK/IK switching can still be done by inserting keyframes for all relevant constraints, but it is not as simple as moving a single bone. Bone driven shape keys do work, however (in Blender 2.49b, there is some bug in earlier versions). For the moment they were done by a non-artist (i.e. me) on the base mesh, which means that the quality deteriorates the more your character deviates from the base. Eventually the morphs will be adjusted to the character, but that is for the future. And yes, only naked characters at the moment; you have to make clothes yourself. Strangely enough, this does not necessarily destroy shape keys.

O_o We must really be very very thankful that guys like them who produce such high quality app for free even existed. ^_^ -Reyn “export to blender with advance rig ( with fk/ik switch) including shape keys” wow!

As much as I love MakeHuman, I have always had to repair triangles and add edge loops to get the face to work. Now, if they will only keep the teeth and gums separate, so that I can use the 'stretch-to' modifier in Blender to make expressions. This is a terrific step forward.
