I haven't really tried yet, but depending on your character design, And the range of motion you want to add it should be possible. Do you have any drawings of the character you're trying to animate? For example, maybe make the physical legs shorter so that the hip area can contain the majority of your long shirt. so from a visual perspective you might end up with something that looks like he's wearing a long shirt, but from a physical standpoint, the bone structure for the next is actually really short and below the shirt design.

Ibis, with the new changes in CTA 2.1, specifically mirroring of body parts, are there any changes in the works for your puppet plugin?

Nothing significant. The broken mirror button is no longer required. Will be removing it.

Ibis, how do you post youtube videos onto the forums? What is the command? I tried [youTube] but that doesn't seem to be supported.

just copy and paste the regular embed code at YouTube gives you

meet us here

Recently I bought your plugin named Puppet Producer, to help me with character producing in the software Crazy Talk Animator. But I'm having some trouble to map the character, especially when I set the pose on the 315º angle. I watched all your tutorial videos and don't know what can solve my problem, so I would apreciate your help for this problem. Best Reguards.

To make the 315 degree angle just make sure you switch to the 315 panel in Puppet Producer and basically proceed the same way as with the 0 degree. If you have any other specific questions about the process just let me know.
