1. How do I make my own performance packs?
You need to have 3D Studio Max version 4 or 5. A plugin will soon be released that will let you export to the .PAF file format. Then you'd need to compose a .PDE file using a simple text editor.
Please bear with me, I'm still working on the tutorials for digital puppet creation using 3D Studio Max as well as the tutorial and manual for the .PDE file format.
At the moment, I'm concentrating more on creating ready to use performance packs.

2. What about shape animation/morphing bones and skin?
Hmmm, yes I'm working on it. There will be digital puppets available in the near future that will use these features.

3. How fast will the feature updates be?
At the moment, my primary focus is on making more readily available performance packs, but of course I will be updating the software as fast as I can.
