Re: Grand Theft Auto V
sorry typo, my bad, elderscrolls and gta. My point still stands, games all have varying degrees of game elements that build it up, but something like skyrim does not consists of as much of a sandbox world as it does with the openworld rpg, and it never did before. It gives you limited tastes of sandbox and punishes you if… -
Mechanical Arm Rigging Problems
Hey, Im currently rigging a mobile suit model that I created, I started with the arms and have run into a few issues (I use 3DS Max 2009).

3DS Max Rigging issue
Hi Guys, I'm having a bit of a problem with a rig for a crab/spiderish like leg in 3DS Max. I'm using a HIIK on a bone system and some of the bones don't play nice for me.

Twist Rig problems in 3ds Max
This is a long shot, but I'm hoping someone can help. I'm using Digital Tutors to learn how to twist a rig - the particular tutorial is called 'Rigging Quadrupeds in 3ds Max'. The element I'm having trouble with is the vertebrae; the set up is a spline skinned with separate bones linked to helpers which are constrained to… -
Best way to rig animal legs
So I am almost done with my character. I want to make a really good rig to pose an animate him well, but Ive hit a snag right out of the gate. My skeleton is how I want it, lining up with his feet.

Difficulty Rigging a Hip/Groin Joint
I have a simple stick-man model which I'm trying rig up. I've got most of the joints bending in an acceptable manner, but I can't seem to get the hip joints to bend properly. Here's an image of the rigging issue where the foot is raised a bit and nothing else: Here's the same pose with bones visible: Here's the default… -
Re: What is your workflow for posing/rigging characters?
+1 for rigging/posing in another package. ZSpheres are cool and all but not very flexible beyond a static pose. Both Max and Maya have auto-rig systems (CAT and HumanIK, respectively) to create versatile humanoid rigs rather easily. The only drawback, for a novice at least, is that you'll have to do some extra work… -

How would you go about rigging the following in MAYA
Hey Guys, Im a 3D artist with an embarrassingly weak understanding of rigging and I wanted to get some ideas regarding a new project. So how would you go about rigging the image below so that it will have a control to expand and contract with the image being its most expanded state. Very similar to a Hoberman sphere when…
