Thank you so much for breaking this all, this saved me so much time. All these 2hour tutorials packed into 8 min!

Your Quicktips have just filled in some essential things missing from most tutorials etc. I think I've said out loud "how did I not know that?" to every video. Thank you!

Could you do this on a human-like rig? Every time I've tried it it came out weird and everything would crease, so I'm just looking for a proper way to do it

thats for that. Do you know if theres a what to retarge weights form one object to another?

why is my joints not showing in weight manager? i did select the tag

@JimiJames 3 ай бұрын

Is there a way to follow this process but with a mesh that isnt singular: a parent mesh, with smaller childs, like eyes and lips that can be weighted together as a null group?

Really helped out mate, was really struggling with the smoothing maps. ;))))))

I'm glad it was helpful! I've had to look up how to rig things basically every time I do it lol

How do you deselect the weight view? I'm finished and want to see the object with materials but idk how to

@tedgore5365 Жыл бұрын

When I open the weight manager like you do, The joints don't show up in it and I can't figure how to get them in there. Any help?

your primitive object should be made editable, fixed it for me

cool. A great thing is to discover if there is a way to prevent deformations on a specified part of the mesh even if is moving with the bone anyway. For istance: if I have a cyborg, and once rigged this mesh is deforming alright, some parts ( the spine for example ) has rigid parts, so even on the elbows etc... I see a rigging software doing that. I really wonder if there is a tip to doing it in Cinema.

@letsmakec4d228 Жыл бұрын

I'll keep it in mind for a future video. But if you need something now, the fastest possible way to do that is with a constraint tag on your rigid pieces with "parent" checked on then select the bone you want it to stick to. This is basically like making it a child without having to place it in the object hierarchy

I was watching the rigging episode in the official channel of C4D, and I noticed that the cylinder is colored red and green on my PC, so I came here to watch your video and followed you step by step, the result is the same, the model is not colored 😭, please help, I am using C4D 2023

@letsmakec4d228 Жыл бұрын

Hm... Looks like when I click away from the model and re-select it the colors go away. The only thing that brings them back is double clicking the weight tag.
