Title: Vertex Weight issue. Post by: Power Marshall on July 11, 2010, 07:00:13 PM *v Go to MarioKart64n's Vertex weight thread if you know how to solve this. v*
Alright, so I edited luigi, in terms of vertex editing, and also in terms of Mariokart64n's method. I put the model back in BB and it is all good. I arranged Luigi's buttons to be on his face and hat... in a sense. The problem is that when Luigi is in motion or such, the buttons escape from his face and cling in the air or in other various positions. I observed and tried to find how to fix such a problem, and found his buttons are not bones, neither do they have any, BUT are in fact connected to a certain said bone. His WaistN, I believe it was, is the bone. Now what I would like to know if at all possible, is if the polygon can be connect to the bone of his head or face? I know his hat is another bone, but I think I can rename that one so it does not move. Thank you for your gracious time. ;) Title: Re: Vertex/polygon problem.

Post by: mariokart64n on July 11, 2010, 07:33:33 PM see animation works off of moving around a stick man figure, called a skeleton. much like me and you have bones, bu rotating the joints we move. same principle for 3d animation, record the movements of the skeleton, and just store a bunch of rotation data.. simple
but anyway each vertex on our model is assigned, or attached to a bone. we call this Vertex Weighting... you just tell a vertex where to stay, when the skeleton starts to move or animate. if we can edit the assignment, then all our problems should be solved. ..sadly I have no lead, on where this data is. |
