everyDayMaya35: adding To Deformers

#maya
Now that Maya uses component Tags by default, it's important to learn how to add geometry and components to them.

This is very useful. I do not animate shapes that often so I was really confused about deformers not appearing in their relationship editor. Thank you. Also, dolphins are mammals. :P

haha, i just rewatched this and was thinking.. when did I call it a fish? and then oh, right, at the end I make the channel and group name "fish"

Thank you for uploading this video, I have been trying to use the "Edit membership Tool" and it wasn't working. I appreciate you showing how to disable "Component tags" and enable the legacy tools, because I don't think anyone has really covered that on the internet.

[@smann3d399]

glad it helped, part of the reason i made this, was to remind myself !

[@davidmonteiro6822]

Thank you! Could you show how to rig a non spherical eye, that also is skinned to the eye joint of a rig and still follows the look at constraint while keeping the ffd deformation?

[@smann3d399]

I kinda bumbled thru it. but this should help --> ruclips.net/video/EK2pWCOhzD8/видео.html

[@ABC_ColorGame]

Could you provide additional videos on how to use the "Defom tool"? Really useful video.

[@smann3d399]

thanks.. anything in particular you are wondering about?

[@masoudrashidinezhad9429]

Thanks, what is your software to show shortcut?

[@smann3d399]

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean?

[@smann3d399]

oh, you mean the keys on screen.... I use CamTasia to capture and edit, and it can automatically show all the hotkeys

[@masoudrashidinezhad9429]

@@smann3d399 Thanks again.

why not an array? it will be tedious to change all the time the name of the shapes and then change the lattice too.
an array will solve all this problem, isn't it?

[@smann3d399]

Sorry,, Not sure what you are asking.. an array for ... what?
