Animation for Games - How to Rig a Skirt?
polycounter lvl 10
Hello! I am having some work to properly rig a Skirt in 3ds Max in CAT. I already do it in the Biped, but in CAT, the extras bones that I create do don't bend progressively, they bend together and I can't add a HI Solver to them.
Someone knows a way to make the extra bones bend like a Tail Bone?
And another question, I'm doing loop animations to my game. It's a good idea to use a cloth simulation to the Skirt and have a way to bake the animations in the CAT animation layers?
Well I'm spending a lot of time in this to find a proper workflow... I change the biped to CAT thinking that it have only advantages but I encounter somes flaws too, like these extra bones that don't bend well together and the copy poses that don't work in the most cases.
In the Biped rig I animate just one side movement of a Walk cycle for exemple and mirror the poses to the other side... but it not work well in CAT... wherever... thanks for the attention!
