I have a question about the placement of the "Balance Right Foot" bone: I noticed that there is nothing in the instructions about translating it on the Z axis (from a side view) to the base of the Right Foot Geom, so is it supposed to be out in front of the model? Or have I missed something? Thanks.

I've got two characters (at least) to rig for my upcoming project. One is my old pal Knuckles McGurke whom I got right up to the point of rigging some time ago and never did. (Rigging has always intimidated me.) The other character is one that started as a reworked head from one of the Extra's DVD models. Neither one was CFA'd. I really want to use the 2008 rig for these characters and as I began to start I noticed on the first page of the instruction PDF that one of the requirements was a symmetrical (CFA) model. Is it possible to install the rig in a non symmetrical model and make whatever adjustments neccessary, by reassigning cp's? Thanks.

I wasn't entirely happy with my last go around with rigging my Papa Bear model so I decided to go back and have another go with it. At the same time I re-worked some splines in order to try and make it easier to control joint issues. Starting with a fresh model file, I applied the 2008 rig, followed the instructions all the way up to cp weighting, and ran into some weirdness. On the right leg, I am experiencing issues with the Right_Thigh_Geom bone. When the leg is moved (in an action) to an extreme down position then thigh bone spins 180 degrees and twisting the mesh in all sorts of ugly ways. If I slide the foot forward just the littlest bit the same thing happens. …

Questions in two areas: 1. Splinage: What would be the optimum number of splines for joints? (Wrist, elbow, shoulder, etc) Do you need a spline for bicep flex? 2. In the instructions it says I need the "Mirror Bones" plugin, symmetrical model (CFA). In the unzipped folder, I have the Mirrorbone, MirrorConstraint, and the RMWeight .hxt files. Ho do I know its the Symmetrical (CFA) version?

Trying to recreate the IK Leg setup of the 2008 Rig, but in the Leg Ik Relationship the Thigh Geom orient constraint to the Thigh Orient bone is not available in the pull down. Trying it in Thom 3, even though the constraint is there, once I delete it, again it becomes unavailable. Any ideas are very much appreciated, I am using V17 32bit. Thanks

These are modified 2001 Rigs that have the hand controls from the Squetch Rig...there is a five finger and four finger version in the ZIP file. To install, set up the 2001 Rig bones as you would normally, use translate mode, scale mode and rotate mode to move the red "right_hand_INSTALL" and "left_hand_INSTALL" bones so that they are in the same position and size as the "Right Hand" and "Left Hand" bones, position the hand bones as you would while installing them in the Squetch Rig (the process is shown in the installation videos that are linked to on the Wiki page), run the "InstallRig" plugin (included in the ZIP) and then assign CP Weighting. For the Squetch Rig…
