*UPDATE 8 August 2013* Refining geometry in foot and ankle prints has caused fewer issues, especially for those troubled by faceted geometries earlier. Smoothness is now expected. *UPDATE 31 January 2012 is not present but* Ankle and Knee Joints have been upgraded with 4 additional bones (Fibula, Tibia, Patella, distal Femur). Also included are vast improvements in Metatarsals, correction of Foot alignment, and the overhaul of Talus. A significant part of human anatomy is involved, as 26 proper bones comprise the foot, reaching up to 28 when including sesamoids from the first metatarsal phalangeal joint. This represents more than 25% of total musculoskeletal anatomy touching down with every step you take. A remarkable fact.
