SETUP
This package assumes you have basic Blender knowledge to remove and replace a subset of your body armature and data transfer the vertex weights. The goal is to replace your foot rig, transfer the weights from the provided foot to your model. This package only supports the default body (unmodified foot). I've provided the setup instruction here so you can better understand what's needed before purchasing.

- Confirm and zero all shapekeys
- Remove all armature in foot (remove foot, toe, and individual toes)
- Import foot rig to project
- Join foot rig armature with avatar armature (ctrl-J)
- Parent new Foot_R and Foot_L to Knee_L and Knee_R
