My name is Eleni and I am 3D Artist . I am open for any kind of remote Job. Full time , Part Time , Freelance , Contract. Allow me to provide some insights into my background. I have
been engaged in 3D modeling for the past five years. This journey began when I
made a pivotal decision to transition from a career in banking…
Always remember before starting to animate reset your models Xform and pivot. It fixed alot of issues for me in the past. In this case I think it might be your Xform that needs resetting.
Yeh I was happy when I learned that too. It was the same thing with being able to hold down d to change pivot instead pressing insert, and also snapping shortcuts :P
Unreal picks up on your assets origin rather than their pivot points. So if you are importing an entire scene or possibly different parts of it, it should be very easy to retain alignment. ;)
There appear to be 3 pivot points that I can't figure out how they work. Can you show the model fanned out so we get a sense of how it would be animated?
Heboltz3 I tried what you said but was unsuccessful T T. It's like the neck verts are frozen in place on the neck on the blizzard model. The bind and pivot changes seem to have no effect.
yeeeahhh ... you know that SCi/Eidos have been desperately searching for a buyer for an age, closing Pivotal, whilst watching their share price tumble at a terrifying pace? .. Oh, no, you didn't
But even everything is fine with the scale and the symmetry and the pivot, this dumb pop-up appears when you try to dynamesh an object with SpotLite(suddenly!) is turned on. Just hide it by pressing Shift+Z and then dynamesh the subtool.
Just getting the basics out of the way: Freeze transform, delete history, center pivot, check the outliner and make sure it's not grouped then set it to object symmetry. If it still doesn't work I have no clue.
Just a guess, but maybe you should check your pivot axis. Looks like it's off by 90°. Not a Maya user, but if it's in the right position like the original weapon, don't forget your freeze transformations.
