Blender Part 6 How to add an Armature || VTuber Vrchat Avatar Tutorial 2022

[@simons-art-corner]

im actually glad that my first vrchat avatar model has a really simple design bc i cant imagine rigging something as complicated as the model in the video

[@chezsrandombs]

I love seeing the little confidence growth in your channel! I started watch a little bit ago and you seem much more confident in more recent videos! I also love the little pixel art models, they're so cute!

[@RainhetChaneru]

aaa thank youuuu i try my best!!

[@unistrut]

Just want to say thank you for saying the keyboard shortcuts you're using as you use them. Makes it much easier to follow especially if you're working on your own model while following along.

[@ivann9924]

Thank you for making these, youre big awesome. With my limited amateurish knowledge of Blender these helps me make a simple albeit functioning character that i can be happy with. I hope you keep making videos about Blender even if theyre about different topics. Your channel is a hidden gem, the few that follows you treasures.

[@TheDmDark]

I wanted to part this super incredibly useful tip with you while doing the fingers-- yes, the very pesky fingers and mesh being in way and all of that-- well, suffer no more! ALT+B will be your super best friend in this processing when singling each troublemakinig finger out and put them back in their place. (**ALT** B, NOT CTRL-B) (yes i know this is 4 months later but i thought i'd still toss this useful knowledge out there anyway!)

[@vactrameh3021]

thank u :3, for me rigging looks really difIcult

[@ThatBirdNerd]

The further into this series I get, the foggier my brain gets. I understand it all in theory, but doing all these tiny little steps along the way is breaking me down. I want to learn how to make VR avatars purely to make money because I'm broke as hell all the time.

[@senjuakiwara1282]

14:00 symmetrize don't work for me.

[@_.lxc1fer._]

Do you have ‘Left’ or “.L” on each of them?

[@kerralian7916]

for the finger bones you can use volume to move the bones. You need to click the magnet on top of your screen and click the pulldown tab next to it

[@Nibor62]

Hi there, thank for this nice tutorial. I would like to know what is the point of chaning (fixing ?) the axis orientation of the bones (and why some should face inward, where for others it does not seem to matter)

[@HoowlerWolf]

same here

[@webarchitect]

«It is I». M-m-m... perfect grammar, I like it so much! 😇

[@lightswitchblade]

this was helpful thanks also i was questioning the tutorial from 2 years ago

[@Yamchasu]

I need a hand so in itself the armor doesn't symmetrize me and I had to do it manually, in the end when I tried to pose the character my face deforms when I bring my arms together, not much but it's as if there was a force field on the arm and body armor that doesn't go well with the head

[@dissonanceparadiddle]

Been looking forward to this. I wish there was a way to have a second rig like the human meta rig for doing custom animation stuff for an avatar.

[@RainhetChaneru]

you can animate your avatar without a secong rig though??

[@dissonanceparadiddle]

@@RainhetChaneru that's true but it's forward kinematics 😖

[@ickicki]

hey rain, since it's probably coming up within the next couple videos, can you go into super detail about how unity works and the process of uploading a model into vr chat? ever since your first avatar class, it's something I'm still confused on.

[@RainhetChaneru]

yesss

[@KvisTwig]

i'm cross referencing this series w/ a few different low poly (I'm talkin PSX era resident evil) timelapses. people in the PSX era usually had mitten hands so i'm improvising hard here.

[@leonandrzej4396]

what if i want to make a non-human model? like no arms but with hands, do i have to delete the arms bones or leave them in there?

[@RainhetChaneru]

leave the arm bones. some programs use them for animation

[@littlenuni]

Imma cry.. mines legs are a lil glued kind of.. like it’s fine but once I try to pose it, the feet stick to each other

[@NotTheNerd28]

Hello, im having trouble with the legs not hinging but moving separately. I've rewatched this and video 7 a couple times to figure out what im doing wrong but I cant see what I did.

[@CaprineQueen]

I tested the auto weights too but I can't revert back so I can't figure out how to get my file back to how it was before in order to start the right way :')

[@ElegantHope]

Unparent the mesh by selecting the mesh, then the skeleton. Then right click > parent > clear parent OR alt + P. Then select the mesh(es), select the Data tab in the bottom right (green triangle with a dot for each corner), and then under the vertex groups, below the + and 0 buttons, hit click the down (V) button which opens a menu. Click 'Delete All Groups' in the menu. That's what has worked for me when I've had to restart with my weight painting a couple times now.

[@kittycry202]

Hi I know this video is old but I have a question I’m working on a second project and I’m having this ammature problem and I wanna know do u have to add every bone in the body for it to work as an humanoid?

[@Delusion_Dimension]

my whole model is one mesh , its not separated like yours. is that a major problem? it doesnt have hair or pupils or a mouth though. but it has ears and a tail

[@maddusa]

I have question and I am interested did I shoot my self in a leg with this. I tried to be clever and have only thumb and index finger bones in both hands, to keep amount of bones low. My model wont have fingers so I rather use those bones for hair. Will this brake my avatar later on in unity? And does it still count as humanoid rig?

[@plautus-jc8be]

HOw to get my character into T or A pose?

[@dellenaenderdragon]

how do you rig wings and accessories?

[@Syhtix]

thank you i subscribed

[@julian-vanilla8379]

my bones weren't even attached to my goose the whole time :

[@HowdyDraws]

Ok nvm, how do i root the bones for long hair?

[@AudioWastelandStudio]

Keep in mind you can change speed of the video.. 1.25 is perf for me.

[@Losjo4093]

So im making a teddy bear character and im wondering if i would need to make finger controlls even if it doesnt have fingers?

[@ElegantHope]

If you don't intend to animate any fingers for its animations, I imagine you don't need fingers.

[@LoveableLina]

I am doing a Vtuber commission and I havent found anywhere to let me know if the bones have to be named anything specific. I use an auto rig most of the time to help cut down on the set up time then fine tune from there but it doesnt name bones in the standard way so I am reluctant to use it without knowing the names wont interfere.

[@RainhetChaneru]

unity has a set of bone names that if you copy, it makes setting stuff up a lot faster and easier. that being said, if you use your own naming system you'll probably have to do a lot more manual stuff setting things up. it's very doable. i just don't reccomend it.

[@LoveableLina]

@@RainhetChaneru ok thank you! I'll definitely keep that in mind!

[@LiamHallam-i7h]

when i do the symmetry thing for the bones and stuff it goes the wrong way how do i fix that?

[@RainhetChaneru]

apply rotation with ctrl a in object mode and try again

[@ALadyy0]

The eyes go roll in the back of the head in unity. idk what am I supposed to do

[@brabenetz]

I think I have the same problem. It is like the eye-bone movements are applied twice? Vertex groups are empty beside of the eye-bone vertex groups. When I move my head-bone the eyes fall out of the head (like when the movements are applied twice) Do you find a solution?

[@brabenetz]

Never Mind: I found the reason for my Problem: I had TWO Amature-Modifiers on my Eye-Objects: one for each Vertex-Group "Left eye" and "Right eye". No idea how they were created (I made the avatar two years ago...)

[@motleythewild]

If you tell my mom you love her because I don't and then put me up for adoption I'd be okay with that, but I am 26 so idk how that paperwork's gonna go

[@chubbydunkers78]

You don't need a nose bone, right?

[@brabenetz]

No, it's optional.
