What does Avastar provide?
Avastar basically supports the creation of animatable Models (Avatars&attachments) and the creation of animations. Therefore the tool adds various functions and user interface elements to Blender.
The full functionality of Avastar can be a bit overwhelming on first sight. You should be prepared to spend some time and patience to get it all working nicely for your projects.
What does this Document provide?
abstract: I show you how you can install Avastar on Blender 2.70 or newer. We provide a short video which shows the installation process step by step.
We expect that you have basic knowledge about Blender.
Prepare
- Install Blender for Avastar-1: Ensure you install at least Blender 2.70.

Q: Where does my software run?
The Avastar Addon runs wherever Blender runs. You only have to ensure that Blender is installed properly. Then the Addon will be working as well.
Q: Expand Addon or keep the zip file?
Blender Addons are always installed in zip format. All attempts to install the unzipped files will fail. So to ensure that your computer does not unzip the file after download, please review your browser settings.

If your Browser automatically expands the Zip file during download, then please do this:

- Uncheck “Open safe files after downloading”
Q: Is there an Archive of older Releases?
Yes, we keep older releases available for the case where you find something broken in the newest product release. The older releases are collected in a the_archive sub folder within your Download Folder.
Q: What does the Avastar Filename say?
we are often asked why the zip file is named as it is named. There is a reason. Here is the explanation:
avastar-M-m-rrrr_blender-B-bb.zip
- avastar: the product name
- M: The major product release
- m: The minor product release
- rrrr: The product revision number
- B-bb: The earliest version of blender supported by this particular addon version
Usually you are safe to download the zip file with the highest available product revision number.
Only if you encounter a bug in Avastar you should consider to switch back to an older Avastar release by installing that over your current release. There is no need to uninstall first!
