MPFB Roadmap
MPFB version 2 is currently in beta (see release notes for 2.0-beta2 for the latest release).
At the moment, the plan is that the next version will be the stable release, preliminarily called “MPFB 2.0.6”.
The roadmap has no dates in place, since the development is all on volunteer basis and happens when people have time. Best tip if you want things to go faster is to jump in and help the project along, see contributing to MPFB.
But the following is a rough overview of the nearest future.
MPFB 2.0 stable release (“2.0.6”)
Main focus: Providing a polished experience for users and releasing something which is viable for a longer term support. Stomping out remaining bugs. Test thoroughly before stable release.
Other planned efforts:
- Further work with MakeClothes
- More flexibility with shaders
- Ensure compatibility with blender 4.3
MPFB 2.1 (and later)
These plans are very uncertain, but there are things which should ideally be done:
- Translation of the UI to other languages
- Support BlenRig
- Support Faceit
- Geometry nodes / particle hair
- Wrinkle maps
- Update the online asset repository to future-proof it
- Provide integration with the online asset repository so assets can be uploaded/downloaded to/from the repo from inside blender
