Why isn’t my ghost saved with the file?
Ghost data is stored in GPU/runtime memory for performance and safety. Ghosts are cleared on file load to prevent corruption or excessive memory use.
Does it work in renders?
No. Ghoster is a viewport-only tool designed for iteration and review.
Can I use Ghoster with rigged characters?
Yes. Ghoster captures the evaluated mesh, including deformations from armatures.
Is Ghoster the same as onion skinning?
Not exactly. Onion skinning shows frame-to-frame previews. Ghoster records full animation passes and lets you compare old vs new motion during playback. (if there is demand for onion skinning i will add this)
