A leg problem

[DJBREIT]

Hello

I”m new to rigging and I have run into a problem.

I made a character from the Mika model but I removed the old skeleton and added the 2001 skeleton to learn how to rigg it. I did have it working earlier but after I did some work on the upper end of the model but by accident did something wrong. The knee are bending in the wrong direction. I look at all the bones from the Pelvis down But I seem to be over looking something.

 

 

Any ideas

 

 

Also dose any one have a list of rigs and what you would use each one for?

Have you compared the rig with the original? Check the rotations on the 'Z' axis of the leg bones and the location and orientation of the "Left Thigh Orient" and "Right Thigh Orient".

 

As for a list of rigs:

 

2001 Rig...it's on the A:M CD.

 

TSM (The Setup Machine)...Anzovin has discontinued TSM for A:M, but you might still be able to buy a copy from them or somewhere like Ebay.

 

Squetch Rig

 

3dArtz' Cogs

 

Barry Zundel's rig

 

S.U.R.E. Rig

 

Matthew Krick's rig

 

Jeff Lew's rig

 

There are others...those are just off the top of my head.

 

Hope that helps.

After beating my self over the head for an hour or two rechecking the two models again. I throw caution to the wind and started to move the bones around. It turned out two bones where off just a little bit. The “Thigh Orient” and the “Leg Hinge”. And I had to zoom in to find it was off a just a hair. You live and you learn

 

Thanks for the help.

Glad you got the solution.

 

I bought TSM directly from Anzovin about a month or so ago, I guess they still have some copies laying around their warehouse? closet?
