jakerupert Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I am trying to get a hang on weigthing right now... and find that I unvoluntrily loose the weigths again once in a while, that I just did before... also I once had all my bones doubled and I don`t know, what I did wrong. Any hints from the weigthwranglers around here, how to avoid these traps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted July 21, 2011 Hash Fellow Share Posted July 21, 2011 I'm going to say you're doing something fundamentally wrong. I can't think of a time that weights have disappeared on me. Can you show a case of it happening? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakerupert Posted July 21, 2011 Author Share Posted July 21, 2011 no, I am "flying blind" for the time being. Maybe its best to look for a good tutorial in how it is really done first.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna engage in a little thread necromancy here. I just had the same thing happen. Last night all were weighted fine, bring up the model and all are weighted 100% to one bone.

Ilidrake Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Strange. I've never had this issue. Try weighting the model and then saving under another file name and see if it happens again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I am trying to get a hang on weigthing right now... and find that I unvoluntrily loose the weigths again once in a while, that I just did before... also I once had all my bones doubled and I don`t know, what I did wrong. Could the two problems be related somehow? Can I ask how you rigged the model and if you saved progressive versions? My main question would be about how the bones came to be doubled, though that doesn't address darthlister's problem. EDIT: I would also recommend Holmes's CP weighting tutorial. It explains everything and then some! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted October 26, 2012 Hash Fellow Share Posted October 26, 2012 Doubling bones can happen by dragging a bone in the PWS while depressing CTRL. You don't have to drag it far and it is possible to do it unaware. For CPs getting unweighted... haven't seen it but if you can make it happen, that would be useful to see.
