Advanced Rigging & Posing

This model features a simple, user-friendly setup and is fully rigged via CAT object (featuring both FK and IK systems), making it entirely ready for your custom animation pipeline. Please note: This model does not contain pre-baked animations. It includes the rig and the following predefined poses and morphs to give you complete control:

• Abs T-Pose included.
• Abs Signature Pose included.
• +L Mouth Closed: Global Weight 100 closes the mouth.
• +L Eyes Closed: Global Weight 100 closes the eyes.
• +L Head Down included.
• +L Ears Back included.

Hair & Fur Systems

This model's groom is built to be animation-friendly and offers two versatile setups to seamlessly fit your specific pipeline:

1. Native Hair and Fur (No Plugin Required)

A native 3ds Max Hair and Fur version is included, optimized for Arnold. It delivers excellent, production-ready results that are virtually identical to the Ornatrix version, allowing you to render immediately without purchasing third-party plugins.

2. Ephere Ornatrix 6 (Plugin Required)

For maximum control and the absolute best results, an Ornatrix 6 version is provided. The groom utilizes splines, which can also be used to generate and groom hair with Hair Farm or the native Hair & Fur modifier using the same shaders. (Note: Ornatrix plugin must be purchased separately via the Ephere website).

Key Features

• Morph Targets Included: Built-in targets for subtle, expressive facial and body posing.
• Modular Anatomy: Body, mouth, and eyes are modeled separately for precise control.
• Production-Ready Topology: High-quality, polygon-efficient mesh. (In 3ds Max, the MeshSmooth function can easily increase mesh resolution if necessary).
• Real-World Scale: Accurately proportioned and set to Metric (Meters) for seamless integration.
• Clean Scene Organization: Logically named objects and grouped files ensure no part-name confusion when importing multiple models into a scene.
• Fully Textured & Mapped: All materials and colors are applied, easily modifiable, and mapped across every format. No cleanup required—just drop it in and render.
