    I have to tell you Man, I thought I was killin' it with the rather simple game I am designing but when I got to rigging my cute, cartoony models the world got very, very dark. I was crying every time I looked in the mirror, eating tubs of ice-cream... Kicking puppies. Then I found this video. Thank you very much. This was by far the most informative and applicable rigging tutorial I have seen out of at least a dozen. Good work my friend. I really appreciate it. BTW, you may have just saved another harmless shelter puppy from a severe "rage-beating".

    one thing i do that makes linging the rig with the face is the snap tool. set it to faces and then any bone will just stick to the face.

      @memyself1498 2 года назад +2

      over time i found some bones must stay together, some bone dots that are overlapping another bone dot cannot be separated, i have found that using wire frame and box selected the bone dots i wanted to move keeping any overlapping dots together has worked for me, i hope this helps you and anyone reading.

  • @sebastienletuan5647

    Newbie to Blender here. I always wondered how this was done, thanks for this tutorial! Quick question (sorry if this is basic): If I wanted to export the cat in a particular pose - let’s say up on his hind legs for example - as a 3D .obj or .stl file for 3D printing, how would I go about doing that, once I get to the pose I want?
    Same question regarding an animation. So for example I have imported an animated FBX file, and I go to a particular frame in the animation that I want to export as a 3D file. Right now when I try to export, it doesn’t actually export the model in the frame where I was at.

    • @pro_rookie_gamedev
      @pro_rookie_gamedev 2 года назад +2

      I'm assuming you already know how to export so, after you set the pose you want, duplicate the entire thing select the mesh go up to the mesh tab in object mode and convert the visual instance to mesh. This will bake the geometry in the shape that it's in to be it's default pose. You can then export it from Blender. This seems good for 3d printing. And for animations, go to the desired frame and convert visual instance to mesh.
      I hope this helps.

    • @pro_rookie_gamedev
      @pro_rookie_gamedev 2 года назад +3

      Btw, I the reason I said to duplicate it is because I think this process is a little destructive and it may not be easy to get your original pose back without undoing.

  • @MR-vs9rd
    @MR-vs9rd 2 года назад +3

    In other rigify tutorials people just parent the mesh to the armature (with automatic weights) rather than the control bones. Is there any difference/disadvantage in doing so? Nice tutorial!

    how do I reset the cats position? Its in the state as 18:42 but i did too many changes to it and cant ctrl-z it no more.

    • @smartidiott
      @smartidiott Год назад

      I tried the alt R + alt G + alt S However the alt + R does nothing so I think that I accidentaly set new rest rotation pose and now I dont know how to undo it.

    • @smartidiott
      @smartidiott 10 месяцев назад

      @Eyeless_Eagle i actually found out you can save a position that the model is in and then come back to it, dont remember the exact how to though

      @@NyanCat-dn5jb hey, it’s eyeless eagle my account got deleted today so I’m writing from this. If you mean a cyclops cat you can delete the bone from the right or left, then rename the one you haven’t deleted “eye” and reset its position to the middle. Hope it helps!

      I’m having the same issue. Tried joining, parenting. Thought maybe they needed to be converted to mesh… nothing worked so far. I’m going to make my actual cat with a model that I sculpt. This was a good way to learn the process for rigging though. Never hurts to do a tutorial every once and awhile to learn

    C est bien j ai vu que vous l avez posté recemment, avez vous pu faire une rotation des pattes avant vers le haut, car j ai essayer j ai vu d autres tuto, aucun visiblement montre cela, hors pour de l animation muinimum d un chat qui veux attrapper une pelote de laine, c est essentiel. Donc, vous verrez, que c est pas possible, j ai essayé differents placements d os, c est limité. J ai vu sur c4d, une vrai anim , ou on peux rotationner les pates vers le haut, je pense helas pour l anim de chat , etre obligé de retourner sur c4d. Si vous avez le temps faite un test, je veux dire patte du chat a 70 degres environ devant le visage. imaginez pour attrapper une pelote de laine. Car si rigify se limite juste a bouger les pates pour marcher et faire baisser le chat, c est dépassé par c4d. J espere comprendre pourquoi, ca ne marche pas. blender 2.93. Merci de votre avis
