I am shocked this video is not at 1M views. I have been looking at rigging and animation videos for the past 3 days and yours is BY FAR the best among the bunch. Clear explanations. Great advice. Just fantastic. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Thumbed and subbed!!!

Ctrl+shift+C might not work with AMD gpu because of driver key bindings - You need to check in the adrenalin software and change or disable these bindings.

By Jove, this is gold! I've been struggling with rigging ever since I discovered rigging, but this is the first time it all makes sense. Very well explained, many thanks.

Great beginner video, no unnecessary detail and super easy to follow. Awesome stuff

You are a real teacher! Simple and clean. I save this video to watch later again. I search a TONS of sites and videos on the internet about this topic but I never found something like this. keep teaching... Thanks a lot!

Man, this is reeeeeally a great tutorial... Some values were different for my model, but after playing a bit with it i made it work. Thanks a lot!

I'm so glad I found this tutorial. Hands-on tutorial and engaging your viewers with homework is a great way to learn. Thank you for putting this tutorial together.

He is a really good instructor! This video really helped me to understand rigging.

Really helpfull, I just started to rig my first character in blender (a Primarys Intercessor Space Marine from Warhammer 40k) and of course i run into many problems (with loose parts, geometry issues, some parts not moving at all...) that i then figured out how to solve thanks to this tutorial. Everyone out there seems to go directly to the automatic functions without making even quick and easy ways to do the manual part (weight paint and vertex groups). The model i started with is a complex one, but that actually helps if you want to learn fast (but with a lot of patience).

Thank you Pixxo. Cool stuff, very good, simple, and clear tutorial.

legit the best tutorial i've ever seen, you just saved me alot

Clear and straight to the point. Great tutorial. Thank you.

Fantastic tutorial. Thank you for sharing.

Brilliant, this is the clearest instruction I have seen, my brain thanks you!

This was really helpful for me! Thank you for your Work!

This is awesome! Thank you!

you are the only one who tech blender like it is possible to use as beginner, thank you so much !

Perfect tutorial. Great starting point, and yet at the end of the tutorial we get a character rigged (enough) for animation.

thank you so much man, you explained everything really well!! i only downloaded blender like 2 days ago but this is helping me learn alot!

VERY USEFUL video - thanks a lot, waiting for more!

Man these tutorials are really helpful so far. Only part I messed up here I think is the knees. Idk why, but I learned a lot just the same, so thanks!

THANK YOU SO MUCH I really needed this - I'm making a video game with blender and unity So easy to follow and very thorough as well.

Thank you Pixxo 3d. I finally did it. I could not believe. After Several youtube videos yours is clean and Understandable. I have no school. but with youtube and You. I found school to go🤓🤓🤓

very great tutorial! you explain it very well step by step!! thanks a lot!

looks like a really good tutorial im gonna follow this when i got time for my own character :D and see if i can do it :D

Thanks It helped me alot!😇 & Thank you because of you I am encouraged to do SCULPTING. I have made my 1st sculpture by your tutorial

That was amazing! Had many problems before but it finally worked!! Thank you so much! Sadly the automatic weight paint didn't work :( but that's probably due to the character I'm using.

I have a question, I want to make a game and make some assets my self. I learned how to 3D model guns in blender and now I want to learn how to make characters. What is the process to making a character for UE5 in layman’s terms. I.e make character - rig - import to ue5 Or do I import from ue5- rig then make character. I just don’t want to make a character and then have to restart because I messed up from the beginning lol. Any tips would be appreciated bro. Love the channel. Super clear and concise tutorials!!

What's the difference between control shift C vs just shift i ? I tried both and they both look the same. I'm not seeing anything different.

I want to model a character 9mm in height for my model ships. Is it better to build the character at a 2m height and then reduce, or should I model the character at the 9mm height?

do u HAVE to keep the control bone or will everything still work fine without it?

Shift+ctrl+c or ctrl+shift+c doesn't seem to work anymore(blender 3.4.1). Although ik s can be added through bone constraints properties menu, it doesn't behave the same as in video. Couldn't make the pole target bones behave...

Did anyone figure out how to place the target bone for the upper arm? I put it behind the arm on the Y axis, but when I move the IK bone for the hand my arm bends in a weird unnatural way.

i can not add mesh unsubdivide how do i do that? there is no option like that i am only getting edge subdiv can i use that too?

Thank you! But my arm controllers don't move alone with arms. What do I do? Thanks

I did, but the part in symmetrise my leg bones went properly but the hand bones went upwardly ,why this happened?

Need help, why are my leg target bone not symmetrizing

i don't have mesh.unusubdivide as an option to choose only edge un-subdivide show up. i try closing it down the and restart it over a couple of times still didn't show up.

i followed the steps great indeed but the mesh does not move with the bone movement did i miss a step??

I'm having some trouble with the inverse kinemactis part. After I finish the process of pairing both the hands and feet to their IK bones, they detach from the rest of the arm/leg; so when I move them very far they just deform the model. How do I solve that?

I believe you're having an issue with the Bone Constraints not being assigned. Go to the next step and select the bone that you've applied the IK to like LowerLeg.L. Under Bone Constraints, make the chain length 2. He doesn't explain that this issue will occur if you don't do this. Check that everything is parented like it is in the video with the wrist IK parented to the torso and the ankle IK parented to the main bone.

For some reason when I set the number of ???? to '2' on the lower leg bone it adjusts the leg bones in pose mode automatically, making it different to the edit mode bones. What's the reason and deal with that?!

When I did the target bone for the arm, the arm no longer bent when I tried moving the IK. It remained straight and rigid. I'm a beginner so I haven't the slightest idea how what the problem is.

I am trying to get a figure that I want to put in planet coaster edited where his arms are down by his side and I am still getting confused

Quick question: when moving my mesh with this rig (or any rig) makes things quite laggy and im running an i9 and a 3090ti. Would this be because of the sale of my character? Its 18m. Or does scale even matter?

@RedneckRedoubt

9 ай бұрын

Blender scale units should not matter for rigging or performance as far as I know (unless you're trying to rig with automatic weights and the bone heat error keeps getting thrown. Scaling up can fix that some times.) Not sure if you ever found out or not, but there's a few things that make my hardware hate life when moving a rigged mesh. Poly count of the mesh(s) being controlled by the rig is by far the worst one I've ran into. Try to retopo your mesh(s) to a sane poly count and use a shrinkwrap modifier to project the detail onto the retopo'd mesh. If you want to animated it with the detail showing you can use the multires modifier, subdivide it a few times, then apply the shrinkwrap. Doing this will not affect the retopo'd base mesh if you apply it to one of the higher layers. When you got to move the parented rig, turn down the viewport subdivision level to 0 and it will move fine. When you go to render just leave the render setting alone and all the detail will still show up. Make sure when you do this you have the modifier stack in the correct order for your details to show through before applying. There are a ton of great videos on using the shrinkwrap modifier to transfer detail over, and even more on the multires modifier. It's just so versatile. Be warned: the workflow I mentioned above is destructive, so make duplicates (shift-D) whenever you reach a destructive step. Any modifiers that are active (like subdivide surface) will make moving the mesh incredibly hard for the computer to manipulate. Sometimes I have a modifier that slows down computation that can be disabled (dialing back the subsuf levels to 0 under viewport when animating and leaving the render setting alone for rendering) or removed entirely. Particle systems (hair)/physics (clothes and collisions). If these are enabled and viewable they will make trying to move a rig almost impossible. Especially if you're modeling an animal with lots of fur or a character with separate clothes meshes you want to be dynamically affected by the model moving during animation. Best of luck.

hmm it looks all good until I grab the hand.L bone and drag it 20 meters away from the character. It's stretching the mesh for some reason. edit: found it if anyone runs into this problem. Hand.L is no longer "connected" to Lowerarm.L I had to disconnect it from hand_IK.L and parent it back to lower arm. Basically step at 17:01 is the issue.

A and Alt +G = Save me. At 18:18 time. Coz Ctlr + Z, doesn't work in this case, hahaah!

Symmetrize dont work for me(does the character have to be t posing?)

i think maybe 4.0 changed how duplicating the bone works, because it gives me a whole new armature instead of a bone within it at 7:27 -ish

The bones that are outside the body, which we disconnected, can be parented to control a bone that has inverse kinematics with chain lenght attached. This gives off a smooth movement of multiple bones.

Did the bones have transforms before you did the parenting? Also, did you apply the scale of your mesh? Just check these as a start. There can be many situations that can cause this, so it really is a process of elimination sometimes.
