In this video, you will learn what to do when Automatic Weights doesn't work. In other words, how to solve the error "Bone Heat Weighting: failed to find a solution for one or more bones". This is an extremely common problem when trying to bind/skin a complex mesh to an armature.
The complexity of the armature is not that important but a complex character with many overlapping props etc. is very likely to cause this problem.
In this video, I will show the most common techniques for solving the issue. I will also try to help you understand how and why it happens.

I tried to find a solution to this problem for almost a week, but not a single KZread video helped me. Today I came across your video - and it worked, I'm really very happy. If I had found this 3 days earlier, I would have saved several dozen hours of my life. Thank you.
The only youtube video on this argoument that gives decent solutions
Wow, in all my deacdes doing 3D across multiple platforms, this has to be the clearest and simplest to follow video ever!

Blender creators have thought about everything. Yet they give you an error messages istead of competent advice or at least link to your video. Helpful video.
Thank you so much for this tutorial your examples of correcting the heat error is amazing!!

thank you so much for this tutorial. I've been dealing with frustration around this topic for probably close to a year now, and finally having an answer to this has given me so much joy. I think it's silly that there have to be *this* many workarounds for a rig, but I also wonder if the scale one (that was the solution to my issue) has to do with the world scale settings in place? Either way, thank you so much for this tutorial. I cannot say how appreciative I am of your work and time spent doing this :)

That's great to hear. And yes, world scale will probably affect how automatic weights is applied but I am not sure if there is a solution that involves tweaking it. If you find one, let me know.
Thank you so much! Just saved my final project for a blender class

Thank you!!! In my case was the 3rd solution. It is a character made in 3d coat and autodecimated and it was keeping the different meshes merged from 3d coat.

Ah, method 1 solved it. As expected, it appears that the cause was an overly complex and sophisticated model. I guess I'll have to use a different model. It was a great help. Thank you!
bro you just solved my problem thanks so much
Oh man, thank you. this is kind of embarrassing but the first solution was the solution for me, i had merged it a few times before but after editing a lot i guess i just needed to do it one last time! It knocked out 4200 vertexes if you can believe it. This model is just for an animation i'm doing, so it's fairly complicated. Thank you so much!

Haven't looked at the whole video, but one thing that I'll say is to look at your shape keys and preferably disable them all before rigging. Yesterday I was having this issue, and it was driving me crazy. I did some sort of impromptu "binary search" by selecting half of the mesh, splitting it and trying to Automatic Weight the split part, seeing which part fails, split it in half again, see which part fails, split it again, .... Until I was able to pin it down to 3 faces. But those faces weren't intersecting at all, they looked completely normal to me. Only when I turned all the shapekeys off I noticed that the faces had 0 size on the Basis shapekey.
Idk if this is said in the vid, but you can just manually remove vertices that are too close or just messed up, just dissolve messed up vertices and you’re good.
AMAZING THANK YOU SO MUCH
