Blender's #Animation & #Rigging module has a new central place for communications:

https://devtalk.blender.org/c/animation-rigging/21

We'll use it to post meeting notes, describe decisions, and ask for feedback. It's also the place to be if you want to come on board!

#b3d #blender #devfund #devtalk

Open your most recent file, instantly! #Blender now has an option `--open-last`, which does just that. Add it to your shortcuts or type it by hand, it's there when you need it.

`blender --open-last`

Blender Asset Tracer v1.3 just released, with support for Geometry Nodes. Get it fresh from https://pypi.org/project/blender-asset-tracer/

Soon to come: a Blender Cloud add-on update that bundles this version of BAT.

#Blender3D patch management made easier: I wrote some shell scripts to pull patches into your local git repo in a more convenient way.

I'm getting the hang of the Fish shell, thanks @spreeker for pointing it out to me :)

In this image you see the result of Bake Action: Euler discontinuities in 2.91 (left) and smooth curves in 2.92 (right).

@sastuvel Just tested it with 3 armatures of previusly baked animations and they all work perfectly.

I'm still looking for people to test this functionality! It's not in #Blender yet. Download my custom Blender build from https://developer.blender.org/D9602, test it on some real-world files, and let me know if it works for you.

Today I implemented a new Euler filter, to remove discontinuities from rotations. If you want to help test the new filter, please download an experimental #Blender build …

It's so interesting to see people's responses.

@EpicGames gives Blender $1.2 MILLION.

@Facebook gives Blender 1/10th of that.

World: OH MY GOD BLENDER IS TAKEN OVER BY FACEBOOK!

Don't worry folks. It's just a donation, not an investment.
