Sorry about that, im too used to it.
Basically you can divide IK bone to three categories :
Body : shoulder L, shoulder R, hips, thigh L, thigh R
Arm : elbow and hand
Leg : knee and leg

Both shoulder IK represent upper body, hip IK is center and both thighs IK are lower body.

It's all up to you how to move it, but you can ignore those 5 bones and use IK anchor.
Use 3 of them and change the anchor point to torso (upper body), waist (center) and hip (lower body).
Activate the IK anchor after your character is in IK mode.
It wont work if still in FK mode.
ok so i get how it is set up with the anchors for the ik but i guess what is confusing me here is how do i take 3of them and change the anchor point?

Select the anchor, then open the item+ window from left sidebar.

Its difficult and depend on how your scene is animated.
If you're using keyframe based animation, you can record excess frames than the duration you want.
For example the animation is 10 seconds / 600 frames. Record 11 or 12 seconds which is equals to 660 to 720 frames. Then make the loop in video processing software.
Basically create the loop in the post processing.

If you're using gimmick, its easier since gimmick always loops perfectly. Do some math and record it according to your math. You might need to add excess 1 or 2 frames to create the loop in the video processing software too.

In short, you make a loop in the post processing. Not straight from the video exporter plugin.
Use the plugin to capture the frames. Not to generate the video from it too.
It's way slower and buggy.

I'm currently having an issue where neither clip manager, nor time line, seems able to animate using the blendshapes option in HSPE - so I can't fine tune facial expressions in animations.

When I start studio neo, the command line says something about pregnancy plus not being able to be used with VNGE blendshapes - so I am wondering if I have a broken blendshapes editor, and how I might go about downloading a new one, without having to redownload the entire side loader...

Afaik you should be able to control the blendshapes right away in timeline.
Ive tried it with facial expressions before.
So it should've applied to pregnant belly too.

But in clip manager, you need to dirty the parameter first before registering the keyframe. I mean making the parameter highlighted in magenta.
If you didn't dirty the it prior registering, it will not interpolate correctly.

Anybody know what's going on here? Been using Fouetty's suburb map and it was working fine before, booted it up again recently only to find a bunch of models have gone all wonky. Not sure what the issue is. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hmm thats kind of difficult.
I posted my cubemap collection few weeks ago here. But maybe the link is down already. IDK.
Just tell me if its dead already. I'll re-upload it later.

As for preset, maybe you can try digging up the discord channel.
Or find a scene someone else made that close to what you're looking and get the preset from there.

Okay thanks but the link is not working due to inactivity and if possible can you share few graphics mod presets for some reason I don't even have default ones by hanmen
