Broken cloth bones

mbknielsen

I have been working on a set for warlock in my spare time for the last 8 months or so, I started out by creating a weapon which inspired me to do the entire set. Now I am nearing the finish line and the cloth bones on my old staff stopped simulating, they are just stuck in a rotated 90 degrees pose.

Now the weird thing is, if I import the staff as a shoulder item instead of the weapon slot, the entire thing works as it did before, but not if imported as a weapon.

Anyone got a clue what that might be?

edit: It is this item btw:

Maybe you rigged it to the wrong bone? Its an assumption though i could be wrong.

I don't think so. It is the exact same fbx that worked 6 months ago. I also tried reskinning it and some various export settings, also updated fbx for the heck of it

which file are you editing for the cloth?
did you renamed the cloth file to match the mdl file?

Well over 8 months, dota 2 has had a couple of updates. So, that could possibly be a factor.

@hayes87, I am not doing any custom cloth rig, I have just skinned my geometry to the existing cloth bones from the warlock staff.

@Mohsen, Yea it is probably an issue that was patched in. But weird that it only happens when I use the weapon slot. The cloth is just fine in the shoulder slot.
