I'm experiencing a weird problem, sad.gif

I created a model and have almost completed the rigging for it. I only recently learned about porcelain and decided to apply it to my model,
it really works great and smoothed my model nicely,,,, the problem is that for some reason my assigning of the bones on the model body disappeared, the clothing still has the assigned CP's to the bones like before...

can anyone please tell me what I should do? what am I doing wrong? or has anyone ever experienced something like this?

porcelain wouldn't cause that. somehow you've accidentally grouped/selected some cps and undone their bone assignments.

hard to say without watching you do it.

go back to one of your previously saved versions and do that step over.

The only thing I can think of is that I went about it wrong.
heres what I did:

I hid everything except the main body, I then I dragged the porcelain material into my project workspace, then,
I dragged it from there onto the model,,, not sure if that caused the problem. should I just drag it to the project workspace and leave it there? what I did see was that although my clothing was hidden, the material was applied to it,,, so,, I'm thinking (based on what you said) that I shouldn't have dragged it from the project workspace onto the model again.

what I understand is that when you drag it from the library to the project workspace it is on the model already.
could that be the reason?
