HomeSlice Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 I had to add a couple bones to the legs ... and a couple more constraints ... and do some futzing around ... But basically I just rigged a toad with the LiteRig. WooHoo! I learned something new too. If your model is much larger or smaller than the default bones, you may have to scale the hand/foot controls up or down. That can easily be accomplished when you open your model in the *Install* action. The controls to scale are: "Foot Control" nulls (for the back feet) "Hand Gizmo Parent" bones (for the front feet) "Arm IK Control" nulls (also for the front feet) These controls are parents of all the other hand/foot controllers, so they should all scale in the action when you scale the above mentioned bones. Also make sure to activate the "Key Skeletal Scaling" filter button as well as the "Key Translations" and "Key Rotations" buttons before you export. You can pretty much just follow the basic LiteRig instructions for installing LiteRig_TOAD. http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?s=&am...st&p=290286 The toad was modeled by Ken Heslip for our very own "Scarecrow of Oz". My cp weighting could probably use a little more work, but dang ... a toad ... with the LiteRig ...

heyvern Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 According to that show "Eleventh Hour" kids are getting high by licking toads... I may be wrong though. It could be I was high on toad while watching that episode. -vern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
