can you take a picture of how everything looks when you select the skin and then create deformer?
#I need help with rigging the skin around the eyes

Do you mean just the base of the face without any shadows?
grand berry
I only have the eyelid and eyelashes, etc. In the tutorial, the author says 'skin,' but it looks like he's only moving the eyes.
nova mauve
ok, whats the layer you were selecting to create the deformer? was the eyelid?
grand berry
I'm selecting the layers through 'eyersmile,' just like the author does in the tutorial — that's what it looks like. I can also provide more detailed screenshots of the selected layers if needed.

ok, the issue here is that you have a lot more deformers than her
and deformers rig on the same parameter than the deformer or object inside of them
thats a thing she does not have
grand berry
The author also explained it in the comments, but I don't understand any of it https://www.youtube.com/post/Ugkx8fZ6rX4mblhgTsGUNLgCT6SUYNydsfWt

for example you have
layer Dolna Powieka l selected and the deformer parent selected too
then the deformer Warp Deformer of Oko l and Warp Deformer of Oko l2
are both selected too
yes but, the issue here is this
if you are following her video tutorial
you shoudnt have those deformers
because she does not have them
now that comment you are mentioning there is also what i am metioning too
is a rule of you can not select a child of a deformer you are also selecting
grand berry
Maybe I made too many. Should I remove these deformers?
nova mauve
yeah, specially if following a tutorial you may want to go as close as they do so you can do the same steps
grand berry
Do you know which ones to remove? The ones that are duplicated, right? And then create the deformer again, selecting everything from 'eye rsmile'?
nova mauve
was there a reason why they are so many?
grand berry
I’m not sure, but until now everything was working. I wonder if removing them might break something, but I can always undo it. I also got a bit confused while following the tutorial and did things differently until it worked, so maybe that’s why some got duplicated.
nova mauve
mmm
i would personaly say to better undo and try to follow as it is so that make sure you can do exactly as they do
and if something get stuck you can ask here and we can help with that so you dont have to do a lot of workaround that give you a point where the tutorial can not be followed
grand berry
Should I try removing the deformers now and see what happens?
nova mauve
if you want to, go ahead
grand berry
Darn, it’s not working. 😦 So should I start over and maybe ask for help in the general chat if needed?
Or maybe I could skip this step and have the 'skin' around the eyes not move? What do you think about that?
nova mauve
mmmm in my opinion i would prefer to redo the parameter rig so you dont have so many extra deformers
having a lot of them will slowly take space of you so is better to have only the ones you need
grand berry
Okay, in that case I’ll start over. Luckily, I’m not that far into the process yet. Thank you so much for your help! Do you know where it’s best to ask questions later — should I start new threads here or ask in the general chat?
