barren monolith
Could anyone help figure out why the chest mesh is moving with the neck, but not the actual chest on this? I've made sure everything is parented correctly, the weight painting looks good, but anytime I rotate the chest...the neck base stays in place, but the top moves with the head.

gritty nest
prnt.sc kinda sucks
Images often fail to load for me.
This really does seem like conflicting weight painting @barren monolith
It could be that another vertex group mistakenly has control over the chest/neck
barren monolith
gritty nest
Check all vertex groups and make sure only one has control over that area
barren monolith
And delete ones that conflict?
gritty nest
Not necessarily delete, unless that vertex group isn't needed
barren monolith
If not delete, remove the weight painting from that group then, I'm guessing?
naive tree
if you're moving spine, it will move all the bones above, so at that point any bone couldhave weight on that area
gritty nest
You could remove the weight paint, but you need to use your head obviously. Your shoulder might have to move a part of the neck, which is okay
barren monolith
I'm rotating the chest in that picture
Anyone wanna make a few bucks to fix this for me? lol
Been working on this for 3 days
When moving the spine, its fine. Something has to be wrong with the chest bone.

send me the fbx or pmx ill check it quickly and let u know what's wrong

I've had that before on some models. Check bone roll maybe?
Kinda sucks that you'd get that on a Team Skull model of all things, lol.

It's team skull. Doesn't look off to me

Yeah, they do actually bend like that in the game. But then again, this is a screenshot. He said "random directions", for all we know it actually looks wrong ingame.

well, it does this now

You could try doing Fix Model again with an older version, the newest one has some weirdness where spine length is zero
Depends on when you used CATS. They added some full body fixes but broke some other stuff

This is why I only use CATS for visemes

Hey
Looking for pointers on rigging a large disembodied head. Meant to be fairly unsettling, so only the eyes are supposed to move.
random lotus
hmmmm that i can't help with, since im struggling to rig a chibi human as it is xD
inner cedar
I'll post the avatar as an example to show what I'm talking about.
Also, I get you.
Fairly new to doing it in Blender myslef.
random lotus
i had to redo the little guy once already
inner cedar
*myself
random lotus
i have blender expirence but im new to rigging
inner cedar
About the same. Only have experience with basic rigging. I don't know anything about rigging a face or anything like that.
random lotus
same, im doing this one as practice since he has no need for a face rig
because his facial stuff is done via texture
so there's no bones or anything needed
inner cedar
Here's the creepy fellow: https://imgur.com/a/r2M2i
My idea is to have him as a giant disembodied head that will move on the ground and his eyes should be able to track players.
Mouth isn't set up for lip sync and he doesn't have any eyelids for a blinking animation. Still trying to get eyelid topology figured out.
Limitations aside, I'm happy with the texturing job done and with the polycount of the model.
@random lotus Your model definitely seems well-made as well. Did someone else make the model or is it custom?
random lotus
HOLY SHIT THATS CREEPY
and mines ripped from a ps vita game
......DUDE .....im one for horror and gore but that actually legit scares the fuck outta me xD

Maybe as much, maybe moreso.

yeah
id rather not be able to unsee it xD
i need to plug my lamp in real fast xD
ok i think my guy's drunk
i finally got the rig parented to him properly
and this happened
inner cedar
Yep, definitely drunk.
random lotus
xD
inner cedar
Guess you should orient him upright and then apply the rotation.
Or you could keep him flat on his back.
Whichever option is the most appealing.
inner cedar
What did you do to stand him up?
random lotus
i pressed undo
and did it again but he stayed standing this time
well what i did
now that i rememebr
was i left the armature rotated downwards while he stayed standing
and i constrained the x axis on the armature and turned it 90 degrees
and it went back to facing up with him
and now comes the fun part (sarcasam)

which tbh dont look as bad this time

Maybe you could change the textures so he's some sort of zombie now.
There's always a shortcut
or a longcut, depending on how you want to see it,

random lotus
hang on i gotta find it
ill send it to you via dm's because i dont think im supposed to post graphic content
once i get back from doing something
inner cedar
Oh, it's graphic?
inner cedar
Then, I think I'm better off without seeing it.
random lotus
well ill just sum it up them
basically he hallucinates the girl he loves getting sliced by a piano wire
and then moments later he himself gets the same fate
inner cedar
Yeah, doesn't sound like something I'd like to see.
random lotus
and the wire cut him right below his lower half
the irony is thats where the model is detatching at
inner cedar
It does though seem to be oddly fitting for his fate though.
random lotus
but he doesn't actually die except for the shite anime
he was hallucinating the whole thing soooo
inner cedar
It does seem fitting for his imaginary fate though.
random lotus
yeah
beats how he died in the anime, we....just DON'T talk about that
i must not let the flashbacks return........its so.....fucked up...
storm geode
what meme anime is this
random lotus
wait mine? its not a meme.....
its one called corpse party
id be suprised if it was somehow a meme tho

I heard it's bad. Nowhere near as glitchy as Sonic Boom, and not nearly as notorious as Sonic '06, but still not as well-made as Generations.
random lotus
yeah, but i dont think it's bad
they all say its bad because lets be honest, no matter how hard sega trys the fans are gonna bitch about the games in someway
classic sonic DID suck gameplay wise tho ill admit that
and was practically useless to the plot

You do have an excellent point, I haven't played it myself, but if it goes on sale I might pick it up.

https://a.pomf.space/hhjzcpowrexy.png how do i stop my shoulder from doing this strange twist when i lift my arm?
inner cedar
Weight painting? Not too experienced with rigging things myself.
storm geode

random lotus
the pics kinda blurry that might be why im not seeing it
storm geode
well its from vr so yeah
random lotus
oh
storm geode
random lotus
yeah you might need to weight paint it
that or there's weight on parts that it shouldnt have it on
i know this because my little chibi dude has the same thing http://prntscr.com/j5qlc0
and i haven't touched the weights at all since i applied automatic ones
storm geode
https://a.pomf.space/tacpedipoebj.png so the rig seems fine in unity and in blender, its just in game it fails horribly
gritty nest
Hmm
inner cedar
Could just do with VRChat's method of handling that sort of situation.
gritty nest
@storm geode does the SDK give you any warnings about shoulder, arm, or forearm rotations?
storm geode
no warnings at all, actually
https://a.pomf.space/pzgdbutgtqee.png
gritty nest
If there are extra bones and the next bones are not the first child, it'll cause issues
Alright, what happens when you rotate the head in Unity at the same time as you raise the arm?
And what happens when you then play around with the forearms? Etc
Test it out a little bit more, could be a stray weights issue
inner cedar
@gritty nest How long have you been rigging for? Sounds like you have quite a bit of experience with that sort of stuff.
gritty nest
That's kinda weird
@inner cedar lol not at all
@storm geode could you show me the rig in Unity's rig window?
Not too interested in the head or hands, just show me what bones are assigned where and how
I have a sneaking suspicion that there's an issue there
storm geode
https://a.pomf.space/hqeuebnbfgce.png very possible there is, im a total scrub
gritty nest
I mean, it looks fine. But hang on, I'll check my own Mixamo rigs and see how I set them up
I think you might have reversed two bones
Well, not really reversed
I'll explain once I get my own rig here
I've only been rigging for a week, and that's mostly hands
Ahh, I see the issue @storm geode
gritty nest
I think these are the guidelines you had to follow for assigning the rig:
- Hips comes first. This is where your legs and spine are attached to.
- The bone immediately above that should be assigned to Spine.
- Travel up the spine hierarchy, until you find the bone that the shoulders and neck are attached to. Assign this to Chest. There might be unmapped bones in the spine now. This is fine.
Just reassign the rig like I have and you should be good
random lotus
http://prntscr.com/j5quvr i dont get this, there's not a single weight in those spots
yet when i try to test it they move anyway
storm geode
that didnt fix it @gritty nest ;;
gritty nest
Ouch
I honestly don't know. If it looks perfectly fine in Unity but not ingame, then I don't know
Did you try playing around with arm twist in the muscle preview, too?
And not just stretch
storm geode
oh shit, good catch
thats it
the entire shoulder bone is rotating
is there a way to clamp that?
gritty nest
Well, the good news is, you now know the issue. Bad news is, it's probably a weight paint issue
You might have to manually fix that or deal with it
Mixamo doesn't always deal with shoulders very well
Ohh, but uh
@storm geode in the Muscle Settings tab in the rig, you can actually define how far something can twist/turn/stretch etc.
You could probably get away with just lowering the minimum/maximum twist
storm geode
i dont see an option for shoulder twist in there unfortunately
ill fiddle with shoulder up and down and see how it goes
storm geode
i was just manually rotating the shoulder bone like this https://a.pomf.space/pohzgtxbvoop.png
gritty nest
Ah
Well, in the Muscles & Settings tab in the rig, you can actually play around with the sliders and see how your model will move
In Preview
Just don't touch the muscle groups, go straight to Per-Muscle settings
And down in Additional Settings, you can change Upper Arm Twist too
storm geode
upper arm twists are no problem, its only the shoulder bones that break things
thanks for your help though

limpid flare
Having a weird issue right now, when adding a mesh in a dependency for some reason all the parent bones for that mesh get pulled into the position of the mesh. And if I remove the items from the hierarchy the bones go straight back to where they are supposed to be. I never had this happen before, usually I just add whatever where ever, but these two props that I added today are causing this issue. above without prop, below with.
^^ as you see in both I have the left shoulder selected, but with the prop the shoulder bone moves to the position of the new mesh. Also the same is true for everything in that hierarchy, so left arm, elbow and wrist behave the same way.
silent arch
That is fine
I have the same thing with mine but it does nothing in game at all
My models work perfectly fine as is

ok, so if i have a model with bunny ears, and those ears have dynamic bones, but i want to put a hat over one of the ears, and have that hat be able to be removed when i do a gesture, is there a way to stop the dynamic bones from working while the hat is on my head?
gritty nest
I think you can disable the dynamic bone script component, or you can set the Stiffness to 1.
Inside the gesture animation
Otherwise, another solution is to simply hide the ear that the hat is over
solid adder
@proud barn try changing the values of the dynamic bones while recording your animation
proud barn
Thanks, I'm going to try that, if not I'll just edit the original mesh and make the ear a separate mesh, then disable it
proud barn
Well, it didn't work, at least not for me, if someone else figures it out please send me a message, for now I'm just going to do what i said above

How do I make a dynamic bone actually respect the laws of gravity when I'm not moving?

surreal haven
So, I am adding some parts to a model in unity: the parts I'm adding have their own bones, so each of them has an armature, and I'm not sure how to properly connect them to the model. Would I need to just abandon the idea of doing it in unity and do it in Blender instead? When I try to pull just the bone structure out it breaks the prefab, but attaching the entire thing into my skeleton in unity breaks the model in VRChat. This is what I have currently that's making the model act weird in VRChat: https://i.imgur.com/E2mjdSC.png
so the item i'm adding has its own armature as well as a body mesh and i'm not sure how to properly transfer that to my model, or if it's even possible in unity. worst case, I can take it into Blender and do it there
i'm pretty sure i have to use blender but i wasn't sure if anyone else had done this before
naive tree
@surreal haven rename tail mesh
rename tail "Body" to anything else
it breaks in vrc
anything bone related i do in blender tho°

oh nice, so just renaming the Body mesh to something else should fix it?
normally I would do it in Blender but it's a real quick addition
well, in theory it's a real quick addition. haha.

@lime hill in its simpilest form, you pose the mouth bones into the viseme you want, copy the armature modifier, and hit the apply as shapekey button. You will see that the shapekey was created and added to the shapekey list. Reset the pose and do it again for another viseme

@wary sparrow whats ya issue? I might be able to help a lil lol i am willin to toy with models to study more lol
gritty nest
1 material doesn't matter
What matters is vertex groups @fading verge
You'll have to assign those one way or another. Blender's auto rig can usually assign vertex groups, even if automatic weights fail
If you need to adjust weight paints that already exist, you don't have to do that auto rig stuff. Just select some vertex groups

Use force

well they are good on this model anyway
gritty nest
I mean, you could use gravity if you know what you're doing, but the results are always really bad for me.
Force works way better
fading verge
they should be good on most models, but if you change the weight paint it will be even better 👌
force and gravity is doing the same thing as far as i know
but for force you use really low values and gravity you use very big values

Wow that actually reminded me to go check the weight paint on my jacket

Ran into another issue.
I'm hoping to implement my avatar as a disembodied head, sliding across the ground. I've set the origin point of the head as being on the neck to do this. I'd rig it as a Generic avatar, only problem is I want eye tracking.
Since the model is a head which I want to set up eye-tracking for, I set the rig to humanoid and used a basic rig in Blender, to which I added fingers manually.
After all was said and done, I found out it's too small to be exported, likely because I had to scale down the main body and scale up the head heavily.
I want the avatar to slide along the ground, but I also want eye-tracking which as far as I can tell can only be implemented with Humanoid rigs.

https://i.imgur.com/UHRdAf7.png does anyone know what this bone is between the legs? and what its for
pine harbor
thaaaat looks like an MMD center bone -- you won't be needing that for VRChat
it's just a way of easily animating jumps and crouches over in MMD
hidden gust
so i can delethe it?
pine harbor
you should be able to, unless that rig does something weird with it
i think you could also leave it in without it doing anything in VRChat, but if it's not weighted to anything and doesn't have any other children besides the hips, it's pretty much unused
pine harbor
they are? the pants aren't weighted to the legs or hips?
hidden gust
they are but the inside is stuck to it somhow
pine harbor
that doesn't seem like it's weightpainted correctly...if that's actually a center bone, none of the mesh should be influenced by it -- only influenced by what other bones happen to be parented to the center bone
hidden gust

Does anyone know how to make breast bones? I'm following a tutorial but the breasts aren't moving in pose mode. I think the problem is its connected to the wrong mesh but for where I'm supposed to put the vertex groups isn't an option so they automatically went somewhere else. In his tutorial his vertex group is at the bottom where mine says Zero but theres no option. So they went under Zero_mesh. https://i.gyazo.com/61e2888cf370b9eecdd21cb70eb5973b.png
pine harbor
@hidden gust try moving the hip bone up and down as well, see what happens to those bits in the middle
moving the so-called center bone itself won't tell us anything since everything else is parented to it
hidden gust
the hip bone moves the whole model
pine harbor
yeah -- but the bone between the legs doesn't move with it, right?
pine harbor
hmm, perhaps that's not a center bone then -- what's the name of that bone between your legs?
hidden gust
it says its parent to the shirt lol
pine harbor
hm...whatever that is, it might be better to keep it for now -- that looked like a standard MMD bone, but it sounds like it's actually a unique one designed specifically for this model
this is an MMD model you're running through CATS, right?
hidden gust
lol ofcours i have the weird stuff
nope i am making a model
using a base
it is a mmd model tho
pine harbor
so did you use the "Translate" or "Fix Model" features at any point?
hidden gust
yeah at the begining
pine harbor
yeah, i think that's a unique bone then -- "Center Bone" should be common enough for CATS not to goof up the treatment of that one when fixing the model
hidden gust
i am going to look what it does when i delethe it
pine harbor
and from what you said about its name being "Parent to the shirt", that's not a standard bone name at all
calm needle
make sure that its not weight painted to another bone as well?
short herald
I uploaded my model and it just slides around on the ground in front of me. I found this when looking at the rig in unity https://imgur.com/a/wKGgc
the arm bones seem to be above the actual mesh in unity, even though they're fine in blender
gritty nest
That's weird, it looks like the arms aren't actually weighted to the bones
Check the vertex groups in Blender
Can you actually pose the arms?
In Blender that is
short herald
oh, no it looks like i can't
digital gorge
Vertex group?
gritty nest
Go into weight paint mode and check the vertex groups. See if the arms are actually defined at all
If they are, it's probably just misnamed vertex groups
short herald
alright, thanks for the help. I haven't messed around with weight painting at all yet so i'll go ahead and get that all figured out, then if i'm still having problems i'll come back here.
gritty nest
You probably don't want to weight paint that model yourself
Just check if the weights already exist
Weight painting is a class in its own
short herald
ah
gritty nest
Especially since it just looks like a retextured model that already exists
rare sleet
auto weighting isnt that bad
short herald
it seems as though everything is weighted except the hair, which makes sense since the hair is the only thing from a different model
gritty nest
So it's weighted?
rare sleet
and you have bones in the hair i assume
gritty nest
The vertex group names need to have the same names as the bones
short herald
i don't have bones in the hair, and still checking all the vertex groups for same names
rare sleet
so really you just need to seperate the parts you want weighted, duplicate the armature, hide the original deleting bones from the duplicate that dont effect the mesh, unparent the mesh and clear its vertex groups, then parent it to the duplicate with automatic weights, then parent it back to the main armature with Armature Deform
and then delete the duplicate armature
.>
sorry that didnt seem like a paragraph...
short herald
that's alright lol, thank you for helping me out. I'll go ahead and do this
rare sleet
okie, its not too bad a task, but you may have to expariment a bit to get a method down for selecting parts of the mesh correctly and bones to move it... im still trying to get it 100% right, but it is art lol

So I got an issue. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/253970813722558464/436569814857678848/Assitanceplz.PNG
Where are the vismes?
river pond
Too many polygons, after 60k (I think) it starts to seperate mesh into parts, and you lose your shape keys, I think
stiff hornet
Oh fudge.
Let's reset this.
And now unity's gonna have a fit...
...oh fuck
Yeah last time I didn't have the issue even though it was two meshes
And then suddenly it's doing this mess...
river pond
It depends how it does it, I'm not sure, not the person to ask
anyway, keep your polies low
😉
stiff hornet
Aye...
For the visme part...on blender I mean, is it supposed to have only 3 vismes? Ah, your, and there?
fading verge
yes
and with that it will create the other visemes necessary for the lip sync
also yeah, unity will separate the mesh if you go above 65k polys
lilac moss
over 60k tris jesus just fix that first
gritty nest
That model probably does not need that many tris to begin with
stiff hornet
Got it all fixed.
Now I just need to figure out how to use the muscle animation editor...
gritty nest
It's easy, go to Window->Muscle animation editor
stiff hornet
...nevermind, found it
gritty nest
Also yes, it's normal for some models to only have Ah, Your and There. Especially if it's made for VRChat usage. Those are all the keys you need for lipsync
Most MMD models have more than that though
I've seen some ultra-fancy MMD models without those shape keys, instead they had shape keys for mouth shapes, teeth positions, and tongue. I should create better lipsync at some point using those
Well, it was extraordinarily beautiful
The textures are amazing, it comes with a ton of accessories, poses and motion
fading verge
which one was that ?
gritty nest
And also a ton of shape keys. The face is one of the most expressive ones I've seen yet
fading verge

Update CATS and redo the model
fading verge
oh god please no
gritty nest
Hotox fixed that exact bug a few days ago
fading verge
i had to decimate more than 100k polys manually
gritty nest
Fix Model used to do that to one of my own models too, I reported it and it was fixed like 20 minutes later
¯_(ツ)_/¯
That's why you test the poses before you decimate
But
gritty nest
I mean, the placement of those shoulder bones is downright incorrect
What happens when you rotate the shoulders outward in Blender? In pose mode
You could try moving the shoulder bones too, or going into the rigging tab in Unity and move the shoulders down.
fading verge
i tried to put them down
but they still stretch the same way
like they get automatically put up in unity
gritty nest
There's a pretty solid chance that they look/looked like this
It's an album, check the other image too
You could do Fix Model again, then copy your decimated mesh into the new armature. Then delete the old undecimated body mesh.
Since the vertex groups should be fine, it's just the bone placement
That way you don't have to re-decimate
fading verge
gritty nest
That doesn't look correct
fading verge
it's not
gritty nest
I think you might have to move the shoulder bones down, then rotate them so they're horizontal in unity
fading verge
but it automatically moves like that
lets do it differently
blender :
https://imgur.com/GPdmRPz
fucking why ?
gritty nest
I mean, the second image looks decent in the rigging, but it'll probably be weird ingame
I think you're better off doing Fix Model again and copying over the decimated mesh
fading verge
i did
gritty nest
At worst, you'll have to rename or merge some vertex groups
Oh
Then I dunno. Maybe report it on https://catsblenderplugin.com

gritty nest
CATS didn't like shoulder cloth bones until the latest version
Had two models give me a "holding invisible watermelons" pose
fading verge
that's really annoying
opal aurora
That honestly just looks like what would happen if you change the bone positions after setting the rig up in unity, without swapping it back to generic and then back to humanoid to reset bone positions
fading verge
they did that by default
fading verge
yes itm is, that's why it's really annoying me
opal aurora
Like unity trying to align it
opal aurora
I could take a look at it once i'm home if you'd like, but that's some really irregular issue...
Oh also, i finally fixed up the cloth sleeves
fading verge
i tried some stuff
if it doesnt work in vrchat then sure, i'll send you the stuff
opal aurora
I tried to keep the upper parts of it with 0 weight whilst mid-way through the sleeve opening around 0.1-0.2 and closer to the actual edge up to 0.5
If i try to increase the area it affects it just decided to desintegrate as it did prior, and if it doesn't do so outright, the moment the colliders clip into it, it just flies out into space
World accel and the world value above it are set to 0.1, seems like 0.2 was too much
Turning off the mesh as i painted the weights proved to be very useful
fading verge
@opal aurora okay, i fixed the bones again in blender and did your thing with generic --> humanoid and that seem to have fixed it
at least in unity, need to test in-game
thanks for the suggestion
gloomy pollen
how do you add clothes to models anyway?
they dont move with the model when I do >_>
gritty nest
You need to weight paint the clothes
gloomy pollen
got a tut video?
gritty nest
Unless they're already weight painted, in which case you need to set up bones for them
A tutorial on weight painting? There are plenty of those.
Keep in mind that it's not an easy process
gritty nest
Weight painting works the same for clothes
gloomy pollen
i tried but the clothes stay still >_>
gritty nest
Yeah, because you need to weight paint them
And assign them proper vertex groups etc
gritty nest
Make sure the bones and vertex groups match up
You might have to create bones yourself and parent them to the chest or spine, for example
Or just merge the vertex groups if they're applicable to a humanoid rig
gloomy pollen
hummm ok thanks

also tip if ur making a biped avatar (one thats supposed to use the Humanoid rig type) the easiest way to make sure the characters bone positions are OK is to put them in T-Pose in Blender then to use the Reset button where the Enforce T-Pose button is because it will default the bones to the characters originally imported pose and keeps u from having to fix unity's T-Pose enforcing mishaps like bent fingers, inverted hips, misdirected limbs, etc

simple siren
Hello i am having a really weird problem with my model, it is made for full body tracking, it works fine with vr set, desktop, but with full body tracking camera show somewhere in hip and changing height setting doesnt help, i was looking for issues and only thing i found is this in rig: https://gyazo.com/34989641ddf392465b78f39b0d7cc5ee
the bone definietly isnt 0 length, looks more than fine
opal aurora
Unity states that a bone has a lenght of 0 when 2 bones overlap too much, hence unity doesn't recognize one of them with any lenght in general, way to fix it is by simply separating them, for some reason alot of people've been having that with the new CATS, and i'm not sure if it's intentional or not
In general it shouldn't cause issues either though
If the viewposition is not where you set it, check if you somehow had a camera inside your model, in the past those caused issues like these, changing height settings shouldn't interfere with it either, it's all about the viewposition ball's position in corrolation to the actual model
simple siren
new update just came for me
so yeah, it might not be the problem
@opal aurora https://gyazo.com/e042c2b15fe1092be1e045629ff375de
this ball shouldnt cause problems.. i think, i have no other descriptors hidden somewhere
opal aurora
Do you perhaps have a camera inside the models' hiearchy?
opal aurora
Hmm...
Attach a simple avatar controller to the model, hit play and see if the head's position changes, ignore X and Z changes, just focus on Y axis changes (up and down)
It may be that the viewposition is atually at the neck and not the torso
dire monolith
what does raidus do for dynamic bones? can't find good documentation on it
simple siren
exactly what the name is
if you make collider for example
it will collide with it
opal aurora
Hmm... it's quite odd that the viewposition gets placed on the torso...
You positive there's no secondary descriptor or cameras anywhere?
simple siren
yes, let me check one more time
opal aurora
Increasing the dynamic bone radius makes collisions a bit more accurate
Since normally it'd try to collide the, well, collider with the very thin bone areas
simple siren
no cameras/ descriptors, actually
the person with full body tracking who tested it
said he have similiar problems with other models
so, i think model is alright
do u think too?
opal aurora
I mean, by all means, the model looks completely fine, it's odd that it'd have such an issue
simple siren
do you have full body tracking?
i should look for other person to test
and compare
opal aurora
I personally don't use CATS to fix up any of my models, since i fix them all up manually
I'm also a desktop user, but i've got 2 models available for the public to test if you'd like to test ehm

@simple siren Do you have full body tracking yourself?
If so i'd like to ask if you could test out 2 models

@undone hill You see the greyed bone in the 3d view at the chest?
Select that one, drag it from the hierarchy on the left onto the chest slot
undone hill
I get an error if I reassign it
opal aurora
What error?
opal aurora
Nono, you don't map it to upperchest
You ignore the bone right under it, and place it on the Chest slot
The bone right under it will be ignored and the rest will work as intended
opal aurora
Hmm?
Alright, i'll try to explain it a bit better
On the right side you got the mapping for the UpperChest, Chest, Spine and Hips
You get the one in UpperChest and put it on the Chest instead
undone hill
Oh so spine2 should be In chest not upperchest?
opal aurora
Mhm
undone hill
Ok I remember needing to do something like that but it's been awhile
I decided to finally fix up that model and I forgot about that step
opal aurora
As long as the main bones are presently connected to the necessary bones it'll work just fine, the spine is like that one bone off, it can be inbetween a hundred bones as long as it ends up connecting to both the chest and hips in the end
The hips and chest is the very specific bone sets, both shoulders and neck Must be connected to the chest, and both legs Must be connected to the hips, the rest is history
@undone hill Although i'd more likely recommend merging the weights between spine2 and spine1 as to keep one as the main actual chest with all the weight, but other than that, it should work out well
undone hill
Nah it should be fine Not my Main model anyway
Just a small project
Just adding the Halo Assault rifle and The gesture override for it

Lets say, I'm making a rig, but my both thumbs are kinda messed up, if I change their positon values to 0 it becomes normal

I need help with rigging for full body, i have raised the hips to avoid them flipping, but it still tells me the angle is wrong and wont work right with tracking in the build panel. Does the angle really matter that much? heres my current rig...

My dynamic bones aren't working right as far as i can tell, i did the same thing from one part of the model that i'm trying to do to another part of said model, but its not working the same way?
naive tree
if you're assigning just one bone as root - it won't move
swift storm

i already tried messing with weight painting, either i did it wrong or thats not the issue
naive tree

I need some help with Weight Painting, to be precise Vertex Groups. I need Skirt to be moved by legs but I wonder what do I do if there's 24 different vertex groups on that very skirt?
im confused about this step with them
Simplier question, do I need to have Meshes joined together when I paint or it's fine when it's broken down by materials?
fading verge
it's fine when it's separated
shell tendon
Do I need to make all Skirt vertex groups into one?
fading verge
if you want, not necessary to do that if you want to weight paint
shell tendon
Oh I just thought, I dont need Bones inside of skirt if im weight painting do i?

select main armature last
or i think what u had to do is
apply rotation/location/scale on one that u changed
it's one of these
you apply it with ctrl+A

Thank you so much. I had to apply location, scale and location. 👌
