Maya: Painting Skin Weights

[@broatski]

It is currently 2am and I am desperately trying to finish my introductory rigging class final. Nothing could have possibly prepared me for how this video opened. I genuinely felt like I got thrown into a fever dream. Good video tho

[@Uhr24]

well, i hope you recover soon from your fever dreamZ. the skin weights tutorial is from quite a while back when this channel was still in its infancy. i might actually do another skin tutorial sometime next year.

[@wheeler6768]

Weight painting is the single most painfully tedious thing Ive ever had to do on Maya

[@Uhr24]

my most painful tedious thing is UV mapping.

[@nourghafarji]

@@Uhr24 i love uv mapping

[@juancarlosgzrz]

@@Uhr24 haha auto UV goes brrr

[@lainyg103]

my most tedious and painful thing is retopology ;-;

Skinning starts at 4:56

Thank you

[@dissonantprotean5495]

thanks for adding the zoom-in on the menus. it's really helpful. just subbed and planning to watch more. Really clear and well-paced.

[@Uhr24]

glad you appreciate my editing. i earn criticism from time to time from people who watch the tutorials on a large screen only.

[@dissonantprotean5495]

@@Uhr24 well hardly any one else does the zoom in (not even the official Maya tutorials, I believe) so it stands out

[@TheGuyWithWifi]

thank you for making a short and to the point video full of useful information

[@Uhr24]

my pleasure!

[@cyrilgibaud570]

Nice vid. It's always tricky to explain rigging tasks without too much technical pre-requisites. This is clearly not enough to weight a character properly (or efficiently), but it's sufficient to understand how it works and which tools are available. Thanks :)

[@krakoan]

Excellent Tutorial! Helped me a lot with my 3d animation homework.

[@Uhr24]

glad you like it!

[@MouradLahlali]

why the character has a wewe?

Спасибочки за 9 минут пользы больше, чем от некоторых за 5 часов , великий человек!)

[@Uhr24]

thanks!

[@바다새벽의]

Wow sir, your explanations are so useful and very easy to understand. I hope one day I get over this Rigging hardships and work like you in VFX areas😀

[@Uhr24]

thanks, my friend!

Me at 11:45 pm. Trying to finish this Goddard map rig i wanted to put in my animation for the finals, finally find what i needed

[@Uhr24]

Great!

[@koldugmeleri]

thanks for the tutorial. liked and subscribed! :)

[@ferelcopter5126]

What if it doesn't let me paint at all?

[@Uhr24]

Don’t know.

[@professorattiqurrehmanoffi205]

Please give me the link of its second part

[@Uhr24]

[@Uhr24]

[@alexds6927]

Amazing, straight to the point knowledge!

[@Uhr24]

you‘re very welcome!

[@brandonljikovic1453]

You are a hidden gem. Bless you

[@omarbenjdidia4679]

Thanks for the video, i have a question, when i tried to scale the brush as you said with holding B button it doesnt scale at all.

[@shodan2002]

Hey you didnt paint the pp 0/10 still a good video.

[@GameDevAraz]

You Can Reduce The Amount Of Effect Of A Joint By Choosing Replace And Reducing The Value To Desired Amount, Then It Replaces It With That, Cool!

[@pakapeta7772]

He didn't even put a joint in there as well.lol

[@MariooMotaa]

hiii, i like your video and has helpfull for me thanks a lot, but i had a problem; for example I decide fix the weights of joint 1 and when I finish, I go to next one (joint 2), and when I go back to the joint 1 to check if there´s somenthing wrong, the corrections that I did they wasn´t the same, it was like from I started. So Idk if can understand me very well but i would like that to know Why this happens? :D thanks for your attention and sorry for my bad english :p

[@Uhr24]

hi beto, pls post your question in the autodesk maya AREA.

[@emmanuelmulaudzi9765]

Hey whenever i am done adding weights and try to switch to another tool my maya crashes and says fatal error how can I fix this

[@AmaanHasanDilawar]

Love your tutorials

[@audiofall5231]

honestly you didn't show any examples of how it should look how are we going to learn without that ?

[@Uhr24]

this channel is free, and i do videos in my free time. so, i cannot fulfill all wishes. ;-(

[@GokdenizCetin]

Painting black don't work

[@Uhr24]

i'm afraid i cannot help you with this issue.

[@rigatoniryan]

bro this intro 😭😭😭😭😭

[@Uhr24]

glad you like it. it was fun to compose.

[@wikia9278]

i'm dying who at autodesk thought that putting a male character with a penis was a good idea

[@1RAYJUAREZ]

Great video, tks a lot.

[@Aakash4722]

which maya version is this?

[@Uhr24]

i guess it was version 2018. the tutorial is a while back.

[@fractalelement857]

7:05 paint black

[@dwainehiggins4451]

The feet are such low rez but...the artist was more focused on fine tuning important detail somewhere else. :O

[@Uhr24]

there's not much time in a short video to cover all details, dwaine.

[@dwainehiggins4451]

Uhr ....so let’s make sure to cover the detail in an area that makes sense. **shrug** **high five**

[@ccpartout]

I like the music in the beginning lol

[@Naomi_Zaul]

I love it.

[@Byxell0]

Seems like the model has a third leg

[@Uhr24]

Luv u bro😍....

[@jacobjac3835]

well...teacher is really fun XDDDD not only the weird song but the model and the intentional wrong teaching ~~

[@Uhr24]

"wrong teaching"?

[@Mackofreaky]

I understand this is a video covering the basics, but this video isn't useful for learning anything other than the fact that painting skin weights is a thing that exists.

[@Uhr24]

yes.
