AMSpector Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I have a question about the placement of the "Balance Right Foot" bone: I noticed that there is nothing in the instructions about translating it on the Z axis (from a side view) to the base of the Right Foot Geom, so is it supposed to be out in front of the model? Or have I missed something? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtpeak2 Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Yes, it is suppose to be out front, it only needs the Y (translation of the "Balance INSTALL" bone) and X (scale of the "Balance INSTALL" bone). It's a visual target that positions other hidden bones in the rig as well. It will get repositioned after you export the model from an action. The null has a translate limit that doesn't allow Y translation in the action when exporting, so it needs the Y translation when positioning the rig. The X translation positions other bones. So, don't worry about it, the Z translation is taken care of in the action when exporting. I would recommend redoing the leg install, you have bones out of position (thigh too high, knee too low and maybe ankle too low as well).
