Wanted to make a new facial library that is up to date with dawntrail alongside doing more to help overtake the ivcs files. I even added additional expressions as well ontop just for good measure to really put it up to date now as well!

The code used in the custom face library entry is "skelomae" for this library. So don't forget to put in "skelomae" in order to access the expressions with your animations!

(Also please report any bugs or weirdness you end up finding! There's a high chance we missed something! Its over 4,000 animations to attend to after all!

Also I made a custom animation that allows you to see all expressions being used back to back when you use the "at ease" emote! Due to this I was also able to make a video reference guide for others on female miqo to help people understand what some of the expressions even look like!

ALSO COMPATIBLE WITH ALL IVCS ANIMATIONS!

So mod makers no longer need to update their older animations!

I will be primarily using the skelomae path for any newly added custom expressions in the future however!

Also if any animators are willing to make custom expressions that work for all 54 different facial skeletons... then I'm all for adding them to the pack to allow modders to have an even larger source of expressions to use in their own animations.

Also...um... Ko-Fi cause people told me to put it here...
