SimpleStickyLips

Description

I tried to get some sticky lips for one of my rig, and this is the kind of solution I came with (just a test for now, I don't know how easy it will be to set it up on a complex mesh but I think with some work it will be ok) The idea is to get the mouth opening by combining a shape key and a bone, both driven by their own joysticks which are constrained by a copylocation. A slider is driving the influence of this constraint and is so making lips sticky or not. Of course it is missing a lot more controllers (mouth height, rotation, lipsroll, etc...).

Hi, when I play the animation his mouth doesn't move. How do I get the sliders to work manually?

If you are using a recent version of blender you need to "reload trusted". It shows in the top of the window at the opening of the file.
