Sitting down fail.
It pains me to report more failure, but now that I've decided to scrap the camera movement and just get on with animating the bear more issues have come up. The shorts are causing some serious grief, as they are just not flexible enough for him to be able to sit down or even bend. The way I had weighted it before they did not deform with the leg movments. I weighted it this way because the deform badly with the leg movments. You can see what happens with both here. the first image is without hip weights, and the second is with. Im sure you'll agree they both look aweful. I don't exactly know what to do about it.

pain
ReplyDeleteerr only a couple of suggestions, and u might have considered these already
either
1. reweight the shorts to move with the leg, if there not weighting properly it would need more geometry/edge loops wot have u...a pain to go bk in time i know
2. get rid of the shorts...though the shorts do add to the character it would save u time so u could get on with the animating
3. re-UV so the shorts are now part of the bears geometry (actually on his legs)
apart from that im not sure what to suggest
hope it gets sorted mate
