i've 2 approach in my head
1. mod internal class @see away3dlite.animators.bones.SkinVertex
public function update():void
{
if (_mesh && !_mesh.visible)
return;
//reset values
_output = new Vector3D();
_i = weights.length;
while (_i--)
{
_position =
controllers[_i].transformMatrix3D.transformVector(_baseVertex);
_position.scaleBy(weights[_i]);
_output = _output.add(_position);
}
var _startIndex:int;
for each (_startIndex in _startIndices)
{
_vertices[int(_startIndex)] = _output.x;
_vertices[int(_startIndex + 1)] = _output.y;
_vertices[int(_startIndex + 2)] = _output.z;
}
}
try mod afte line 74
_position.scaleBy(weights[_i]);
with your bend modifier
2. modify after vertices bonesAnimator is updated
just loop all mesh1 vertices1 and interpolate it with mesh2 vertices2
just quick idea, some test need :)
