Quickly Learn the basics of rigging in 3ds max

[@WCCXtra]

Thanks for this, Mr. Blumenstein. Being able to play around with the concepts before jumping into a full project is a good warm-up.

Good tut! Learnt lots of basic elements of rigging. But you zoomed in so much that i had troubles looking at which tool you selected from the menu.

Bone video - hahaha - seriously though, thanks so much - I hadn't had to rig anything in about 4 years and completely forgot about setting up IK etc. Your video made it all come back to me!

[@RichardBlumenstein]

@blissturd your welcome!, Glad you like.

[@blissturd]

YOU are a life saver!

[@karlhans6678]

I followed your tutorial but I'm stuck at the IK Limb Solver, it won't connect! But I know the IK Limb Solver works cause I tried it on a separate bone group. For some reason it won't work with the bones I'm using for your tutorial.

[@JaySamurai79]

Have u done a skinning tut?

[@JaySamurai79]

just found it. thxs

[@RichardBlumenstein]

Sorry I took so long, been busy

[@JaySamurai79]

no problem bud, nice tut. One question though. Is your rig and skin methods still the same? I'm hoping to animate a character doing gymnastics using the biped. I just can't get to grips with skinning.

[@RichardBlumenstein]

JaySamurai79 The skinning method is pretty much the same. make sure you move the character so that it bends at all the joints and deforms realistically before you animate

[@petert9211]

it's good, thanks

[@josie_99]

Skip to 2:50 to get to the actual lesson. The first two minutes and fifty seconds are just him trying to figure out how in the hell to make his character. 😒
