The image below is for the same rig of a same character. The disjointed skeleton is just from an earlier version. For some reason its giving me the problem you see now when it wasn't doing that earlier. How do I fix this? They have the exact same hierarchy as well. I've tried linking and relinking spine 2 to spine 3 and…

Do you spend lotsa time on news articles? I was the pron, movies, and games guy but as I get older I find myself wanting to read more and…

Hi guys, hopefully someone can help. I have a problem with my 3ds Max 2015 that reinstalling hasn't seemed to have fixed. I can make a plane, quad it a few times and export as an FBX. When I open it in to Unity, or import it back to Max, it has triangulated the whole mesh and completely messed-up the mapping. If I convert…
