So with Alembic, we've got a decent way of getting the meshes out of our files. This could be an awesome thing. Model change coming through? Get the new alembic from modeling, load the rig, fix the skeleton, update your reference poses. No shapes, no gatoring weights, just kinda works ...
That is, of course, if your point count/order doesn't change. This is my problem. So, is there any existing way to have a weightmap linked to an external file that could be loaded along with the alembic? (envelopes too, but I'm using weightmaps) ~T.Fox
