Hello all,
I’m posting here since I’m not sure which forum is most suitable for these kinds of discussions.
Hello all,
I’m posting here since I’m not sure which forum is most suitable for these kinds of discussions.
I’ve worked in the industry for many years, using different types of 3D software such as Maya, XSI, and Blender. I’m going through the beginner tutorials and I’m quite impressed with how well thought out they are. However, in the Fur Dude rigging and fur lesson, I’m encountering a lot of issues that I’m struggling to resolve.
I’m hoping this forum can help me and others get answers to questions regarding these tutorials. Here’s a good example of one issue I’m facing:
In the Fur Dude tutorial, I’ve created an asset. In the step I’m currently on, I need to delete some joints, add new ones, and then mirror them back. It’s pretty straightforward, and I can follow the instructions quite easily. However, the bind joints on the right foot, from which I deleted the joints, are now losing their data to bind to the new joints. See the image attached.
I’m using Houdini 20.5, which I imagine might be part of the problem. I would like to know if anyone has experienced this issue and what steps in the tutorial I might be doing wrong. I’ve followed the PDF and the video 1:1 as far as I can tell.
