Problem rigging a steam locomotive.
I've been beating my head against this for a few days, and I've been having trouble finding help on it. Hopefully one of you knows what's up. I'm trying to rig a Walschaerts valve gear, which looks like this: I've got a lot of it working, but I can't figure out how to get the combination lever (the mostly vertical bar… -

I will keep it self-contained in my thread here. I wanted to get back into the trenches of CG forums and get input, but forums have gone the way of the DoDo Bird, sorry to have intruded, just wanted your valuable input and perspective. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. -
Re: The Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge | November - December (99)
Hi guys! Lovely to see everyone having fun with this challenge. TW: TRYPOPHOBIA I attempted to recreate artist Jose Vega’s Dungeon Stage concept in Unreal Engine.

MEL commands for...
Hey Guys, Quick question. I have a rig I need to sort out for a friend in Maya. It needs an FK system put into play so he can bake out for Unity. So as a quick fix I have duplicated the joints, put them in there own group and I am now looking to constrain the "bake out" skeleton to the rig... However all the joints are the… -

I know that relative vertex animations can be stored as actions, so you just have to… -

NOW the thing I recently found is that my… -
Boom and Jib camera rigs
I built a tool/rig for creating boom style camera moves in Maya. This can be used directly in maya, or baked out for use in an engine (I initially made this because the camera controls in UDK were very lacking). The idea is to constrain the camera movement, because often you see cameras and camera moves in 3d/games that… -
Rigging in Maya
Introduction In response to this thread: [url="https://"]Rigging in Maya: Recursive Constraints and FBIK[/url] I've written up some of my notes from my Maya rigging class to see if they help anyone.

Re: Poly/Ribbon trails from moving objects?
another way to do it is to make your ribbon. make a bone/joint for each edge in the strip, and create a dummy/locator for each bone/joint and constrain the joints to the dummys/locators. constrain the root joint to the sword or whatever the trail is anchored to. Then set an expression for each locator/dummy to have its… -
