Just a small update before the weekend as I won't be working on Cats at all for a couple of weeks (Unless something urgent comes up) as I want to work on Avatar Toolkit and other projects.
Added:
- Added Added options to 'keep empty parent bones' and 'skip hidden bones' to delete zero weight bones by @rurre
- Added @rurre to credits panel!
Fixes:
- Fixed the fix for unhide everything at export, things should not unhide anymore - Github didn't merge my local repo correctly and some weird things happened, should 100% be working now.
- Fixed updater not getting user preferences

Added:
Fixes:
- Fixes some errors with viseme setup.
- Fixes some errors with legacy eye tracking setup.
- Fixes where exporting a model would unhide everything in blender, no idea why the original authors did this, but it no longer does it.
Removed:
- The Fix Materials Button is now deprecated, this button was only meant to fix some materials for VRChat for MMD/ VRM models, however this was done at a time where embedded textures into a FBX was recommended by some. However this isn't the way it should be done and materials should always be set up in Unity for optimization reasons and not via blender (Bigger filesize = more memory used in VRChat and download size).
