I am now fighting with my bunnies - they are the first charactes i an trying to completely rig, skin and animate.
I feel like i get the basic idea, i have made the correct weightmapping for head (when the headbones move - only the head moves) and both arms.
Everything seems correct when moving the corresponding limbs, but when the skeleton itself is moved or rotated - the model just breaks apart...

Seems like i can't get something very importsnt!
PLZ if anyone can give me some advice, or maybe a place to learn...
It would be great!

PS I am working in Cinema 4D.

hello,

you need to define a master bone with the entire body weightmapped, it will be used to move the entire body, it needs to be the top of the hierarchi of the bones

Raph

Hmmm. Didn't work - made the result rather strange.
Forgot to mention, i am trying to use IK.

Maybe it is better to make FK animation for a start?

[edit]
Finally got it!
First animation on it's way!

For a "funny bunny" this seems like something funny to animate.

lol, yes!

Anyway, the problem is solved now
But the other is here - the fur is not being exported on the mesh deformed by bones.
