Hi friends,

I am adding the A:M action exporter to Zign Track 2 / A:M Track 2 at this moment. Because version 2 has the option to use different face rigs, I thought it would be a nice feature if Zign/A:M Track builds the face rig so the user doesn't have to.
It is not much trouble to let the exporter create a model file with a rig. The only thing I'm puzzling with is how to drag this face rig onto another model. The face rig exists of a neck, head and many facial bones. If I drag them in the PWS onto another model that works fine. The problem is the position of the bones. Is there a way to drag all bones at once on top of the chest in the model window? When I select multiple bones I seem to no longer be able to drag them around. Dragging them one by one would be possible but I'd rather avoid that.

Does anyone know a way to position multiple bones at once?

Thanks!

In case anyone likes to try it, here's one of the first face rigs generated by Zign Track

to move a set of bones you select the parent in bones mode and use the translate manipulator to move it and all the children will follow. Is that what you mean?

Ah, that's what I missed! Yes, that's exactly what I mean. This works just great, also for scaling smile.gif

Thanks!

Hey Luuk. Is the face rig output model you posted suppose to have any face bones? It only has a head and neck bone.

Oops. I guess I accidentally selected the wrong file...
