Actualy, after setting the pivots you don't need any bones at all, just link the parts.

Also that rig you got up there looks awesome, I had no need to use controllers so far but yours looks pretty advanced!


And Stups, get your rig done, I need one :o

Rig with bones setup makes animator's life easy. And animation editing become pretty flexy.

btw I'm not sure that I got what you actually said . Anyways :3

I am just saying your rig looks professional ;P

Ow thanks
Thinking how to improve it. But it isn't for Max, just Maya. When maya thread will be created I swear to share it ;)
Poor max's rigers and animators. Only biped and CAT take them afloat :3

well tomorrow my instructor at ITT-tech is going to show me some tips on boning a rig, so we don't have to use that biped crap (I say crap because it's nearly impossible to make custom controllers)


I've already got a boned rig, but when I link the legs/arms to the hip bone/chest bone, they rotate all sorts of funk. So yea.

*sigh* Is any students using 3Ds Max here?? Smells my retire

Students not yet :P

I think the lack of students may be due o the fact that people who aren't proficient in 3D (students) would want to get something as advanced as 3DS MAX.

Thats just it IMO.

let me be a student then

Ellow. Any questions?? :3
