Finally got some time to work on Samus' rig again
Still got a lot of stuff to do and I think once I have all the poses setup I'll make a 2nd pass to try and push everything to 11.
There is also no corrective stuff for now so some poses don't play too well together.

BioWare is closing. My 22 years there made me the man I am. The people affected today are some of the best RPG developers in the world. If you're hiring writers, designers, artists or engineers, start with them. Former BioWare folks: if an intro from me would help, reach out.

Replying to @infinitisirrena
I don't mean this in a rude way. But suggesting people have free access to professional tutoring is completely out of touch with reality. For many reasons.

I...worked on this proof for a year...and...they just…tweeted it out.
We’re sharing a solution to the Navier-Stokes Millennium Prize Problem, one of the deepest problems at the frontier of mathematics.
The proof was produced by a group of agents, using an OpenAI next-generation model significantly more capable than GPT-6 Astra.
The problem concerns whether the description of smooth three-dimensional fluid motion modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations can break down. It has remained unresolved for roughly 90 years.

P.P.S I do not recommend LLMs to most people in fact. If you are beginner at programmer, PLEASE DO NOT USE LLMs!!!
You need to learn how to program first, and these tool WILL stunt your growth and learning capabilities.
They should be treated as an advanced tool only to be used by highly skilled programmers. It's effectively the equivalent of giving a TIG welder to a three year old who hasn't even mastered holding a crayon yet.
What I wrote about is not a recommendation of LLMs to everyone, it's just how I personally use them which will most definitely not what everyone should be doing.
Similar to how I do not use LSPs, because they don't work for MY PERSONAL workflow.

After 5 years of trial and error trying to make games in a custom engine, I've finally made something that isn't just a glorified hello world triangle!
3 days until Terrafactor releases on Steam!!!

I was just explaining the dot product to my son today! It's used everywhere in games, often with unit vectors to determine how aligned they are.
But if it’s never really clicked for you, this thread is full of visual examples.

If you want a hands-on approach to math BUT still want to understand what is going on under the hood, this might be for you.
