Minion tutorial series part (6/10) - Rigging part (1/3)

[@Clilegs]

this tutorial is so so perfect for the users who have already used blender for two to three months to learn some new modeling and rigging tricks!!! For the absolute beginner, they may need a lot more detail explanations, but this is such a transcendental tutorial to me already! I sincerely appreciate your work!!! I can understand how hard is it to record lessons and teach people, especially like you who can do a tutorial in such a tight, efficient and clean logic!

[@RG3DAnimationstudio]

Thank you for taking the time to right such an amazing review, I know this must be hard for the absolute beginner, it was originally intended for intermediate users, hopefully some beginners can get some use out of it, thanks again so much, please keep following the rest of the series and tell me what needs to be improved to make better tutorials.

[@blackswan6386]

in top menu you can choose snap to volume, by just clicking a bone it will snap to the middle of your mesh example: finger, legs etc. ciao - i was looking how to rig such this character because i have similar Character but i dont know how to rig it because the shoulder is difficult part. i have no shoulder like this minion, so this helped me out really well, thanks sharing it ciao

how to connect the eyes to the head bone is that with parent main eye ctrl to the head bone? thank you

[@DvirElisha]

I lost you right in the beginning. You did not explain how to replace the cloth material we built earlier with the baked one.

[@RG3DAnimationstudio]

Yeah I did fast forward that part a little, its not an important step really, I baked those textures for Unity at the end of the series, you don't have to use them in blender. But its very easy, just delete all the nodes you created and just put the baked diffuse image instead and connect it to principled bsdf

[@bamboodigitalgroup]

I don't have a single bone. Where can I add?

[@akulahjochelgimanadonk9892]

I symmetrize the bone but the pelvic and the strape not showing up. What happen with that?

[@deweshpandey7349]

Automatic weights are not appropriately applied in my model. For example, the arm bones are not able to control the whole arm; instead, controlling other areas

Hats off to you🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤❤

Thank you so much 😍🤩🤩

I have a doubt in the time of 9:00 in the video.While i select the strap armature and the head armature both are selected in yellow color .So that the offset is now working for me .can you please help me to solve this.

[@RG3DAnimationstudio]

Hello, i understand that you want to parent the strap bone chain to the head bone let me know if that is not what you mean, make sure you are in edit , select only the first bone in the strap bone chain , then press shift and hold it then select the head bone, now press ctrl+P then select keep offset .. I am assuming you already parented the mesh itself to the armature by selecting both in object mode then ctrl+P then with automatic weights, let me know if you still have issues or if I didn't get what you mean.

[@PaulSeFaitChier]

Before getting to the rigging, did you apply all the mirror modifiers you put during the modeling? Because something seems to be wrong for me with it

[@RG3DAnimationstudio]

Yes I did, its better to apply the mirror so the bones attach correctly

[@PaulSeFaitChier]

@@RG3DAnimationstudio Thank you very much, I’ll try it that way then!

mera symmetrize galat direction me ho raha hai. direction kaise choose karte hai?

I am sorry, I don't understand Hindi, can you write it again in English

[@7sparrow684]

Awesome tutorial... I still have a question though. When I try to parent the body and clothes to the armature... It shows shows error. Bone Heat Weighting... How do I resolve that?

[@RG3DAnimationstudio]

Thank you, this is a common issue, it often results from having duplicate vertices on top of each other in the mesh, so try selecting all the mesh go to edit mode, press A then M then choose by distance, check at the bottom if it tells you if there is vertices merged, then try parenting again, if it doesn't work repeat the step but increase the threshold of the merge "by distance" tool (grey box bottom left corner) You can also download the Model from here and check the difference with your model bit.ly/Minion-blend-file If everything fails please join my discord server so we can chat more (link in the description)
