The last release of 2025 just went out! This was a smaller release, but focused on improving stability and Blender 5.0 compatibility. New crashes caused by shader edits and undo/redo operations were resolved, as well as, body animation import issues related to root motion.
Thank you to everyone, who has been helping by filling out bug reports. This makes a big difference!

Malevola x Metahuman Rig in Blender. ⚙️
Since she wasn't a romance option in Dispatch, I'm building her myself. 🤠 Aiming for that specific ingame look using NPR shaders + outlines. Next step: A lot of hand-painting to really sell the style. #b3d #dispatch #blender3d

We’ve finalized our custom Phoenix character model for our upcoming VALORANT project, developed with a hand-painted approach to match the project’s visual style. 🔥
Presented here is a facial expression demonstration created with the MetaHuman Face Rig inside Blender.

"Since Blender was lacking in terms of production and speed, especially character production with MetaHuman, everything was stuck until I found an amazing addon by Polyhammer. Once I saw the result it achieved, I definitely purchased it to use it for my project, and that was one of the key elements for speed." -Mania Carta

I made an Ogre as a custom MetaHuman, but in the Zelda: Breath of the Wild style.
Made with @PolyHammerTools , Blender, Substance Painter, and Unreal Engine 5.

We took a leap and started bringing Metahumans into Blender after this year’s Unreal Fest which was very exciting! Pairing them with Metahuman Animator for iPhone facial mocap gave us an incredible amount of freedom. ✨
