Great tutorial, thanks for sharing. One more thing I'd like to suggest. Make one extra control in the hierarchy called foot_control which is parent of both the toe_pivot and heel_pivot. Then make sure the heel_pivot is XZY Euler rotations, and lock Z so the combination of X and Y rotation goes together nicely. The only thing in this rig that doesn't play nicely is when you overstretch the IK (the toes bend downwards following the IK constraint) but thats something you normally wouldn't do anyway. Could be fixed by a limit distance to the upperleg but that brings its own issues.

30:23 if you dont have the same motion (for example, i can raise the foot but i cant make the foot bend on its toes), I found a fix that helped me and might potentially help you. On the Pivot.Foot Armature, under the COPY ROTATION constraint, try selecting the Invert [x][y][z] buttons. What got it to work for me was to enable all Axis[x][y][z] and enable all Invert[x][y][z]... Basically I enabled all 6 of them and it worked for me. Edit: you have to play around with it until you find what works for you. E.g. I found out I need to disable Axis [x][y] because it disrupted my control foot rotations when I want to turn my foot to the side

This whole series has been great so far, thank you. If you wouldnt mind answering a question, how did you change the appearance of your compass in the viewport so that it's less intrusive than the vanilla look?

@JoeyCarlino 3 жыл бұрын

I'm not sure what you mean by compass. I think most of my interface is standard except I like to keep the location gizmo turned on. A lot of UI settings can be changed in the top right of the viewport under gizmos and overlays.

@virtualadventurer1738 Жыл бұрын

Thanks. Something I'm struggling with is how to keep the ik controls lined up with the foot and leg bones when switching to FK animating? When turning off IK on the leg, I tried using a child of constraint for the IK heel so that it followed the main foot bone, but that causes dependancy issues, I also tried copy location on the IK heel to the foot bone, but that also had the same problems. I tried making a duplicate bone from the ik heel, and parenting that to the foot. The intent was to copy the ik heel to the fk heel's position when re-enabling IK, but of course because I'd rotated the foot bone when in FK mode, this roation got added to the IK bone's rotation. I could use this method and keyframe the bones the frame before the ik re-enable, and then reset their rotation and keyframe again on the frame where ik is re-enabled, but this provides a visible slight pause where the foot is forced to be in the same position (visually) over two frames. Any idea?

Hey, do you know if something has chaged with this setup in recent versions? I have the same setup for the IK bones you cover in Foot Rig 1. Unparented them etc. When I do something like move the to around though all of the IK bones start to offset their location where as yours the head of the bone stays in place and the entire bone just moves around nicely.

22:54 From that moment on, I had a problem with a flickering leg, it was in two positions at the same time, it turns out that copy rotation constraint was saved on this copied bone, which is why this problem occurred.

@haruka3203 8 ай бұрын

let's say you want to make the character do squats, you'd only have to move the entire body down right? (I use the hip bone which is the master bone to move the character down, and it moves everything down) But then won't the feet/legs also go down through the floor? So in this case, is there a way to lock the IK feet in place on the floor or something?

@JoeyCarlino 8 ай бұрын

If your feet are using IK and you want them to move separately from the hips, then you'd have to unparent them from the hips. That's why most people have a separate root bone that isn't also a deforming bone

Hey All! If you followed this tutorial but had nonsensical rotations (rotating on local Z still affects other joint's local Y despite having the axis disabled) when going up on the heels in pigeon-toed or duck-footed poses in Blender 3.8-4.0 try the following solution: 1.) Verify all Copy Rotations are in local space 2.) Set the "Order" of all constraints in your foot bones to "ZXY Euler" 3.) Set all bones rotation order to "ZXY Euler" in the Item tab It says prone to gimbal lock when highlighted over; but behaves much more normally.

Hey thanks for the help was really awesome. I have to say rigging is kind of a pain and process heavy. It would have been nice if you stop to name things to help keep stuff less confusing for the viewer, hard to see what bone you click sometimes. But again thanks I appreciate your time. Liked and subscribed all the way.

You tried... But that rigging pattern is not good for a walk or run Animation... For instance, you can't Animate a passing pose with that rig on a character that is running or walking.. So, you will have to work on your technic.. As for the copy constraints, few are are okay...but the rest are wrong... especially putting an ik on the toe bone is a wrong way to go because, that will affect a passing pose on a walk or run cycle.. you can't bend the toe properly.
