Releases:130

These are the release notes for 1.3.0, which was released 2023-04-28.

General

The main selling points of this release are a set of body shapes by Elvaerwyn and a series of bug fixes for making MakeHuman work with windows 11 and newer linux releases. If you already use a nightly build which works for you and which has the body shapes, there is no reason to switch to the release build.

Downloading

  • For windows, you can download the release binary from here or here.
  • For linux, the recommended way to run MakeHuman is from source. See the readme on github for instructions. However, there are also new builds in the PPA.
