FaceFX Editor got an ~*~update~*~ and now booting it up links to my tutorial that I wrote!
But much more importantly, I can resize the active area at will now to isolate sections of time and the changes in view go across all phonemes so I can see where everything is at all times wherever I want. I can work one word at a time, or do something line-wide.

I'm still going to be in FaceFX Hell for a long time but this makes it like 80% less painful. Also the discovery I thought I made that would revolutionise this absolutely 100% did not work at all and everything does, in fact, need to be done manually because of course it fucking does, but hey, at least I tried to innovate. That's the story I'm sticking with.
Also I've been looking at Shepard and Kaidan's little Citadel date dialogue trees a lot recently for Reasons™ and I've decided to do a very tiny mod for Shepard/Kaidan that I'll release in a few days probably.
I really, really hate that "I understand why you cheated, but..." line Kaidan busts out at fShep if she dared have a relationship in ME2. Whilst he'd clearly broken up with her. She can't even defend herself against the accusation, she just has to sit there and take it. It's a load of crap and I hate it. Did you know mShep can tell Ashley off if she tries to pull the same on him? Yeah. But fShep can't.
Bull. So, I've decided to either:
- Wholesale remove the line and concatenate something entirely new
- Wholesale remove that line and have Kaidan say one of the other contextually appropriate things he can say
- Leave it in and create a response for Shepard so she can correct him out of acting honestly kinda entitled and wrong in that moment. I have secret weapons I can use to enable this
I'm gonna think on my options here. Some are much easier than others. But when the hell have I ever done anything by halves?
