Psyk0Sith Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Remove mc5 bone from the skin modifier, its not in the new skeleton structure and carcass reports this bone as missing in the .gla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psyk0Sith Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Im guessing you want to rig the "face anims"? Usually you only need 9 of the facial bones, so keep only the bones in this list: "cranium" "ltlip2", "lblip2", "leye", "reye", "rtlip2", "rblip2", "ceyebrow" and "jaw". That's it. (Note that face anims arent required to get the glm compiled.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander1988 Posted March 5, 2006 Author Share Posted March 5, 2006 ARGH! now im getting this: http://www.ra-creations.nl/tuts/wtf2.JPG i think im doing something wrong EDIT: btw i dont wanna skin the face bones to the mesh, i completly removed those bones from the skin modifier.

Psyk0Sith Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Ok obviously you didnt read any of the tutorials on my website , That error message is very common and easy to fix, you have to link a bunch of crap together (aka the hierarchy, for when you saber body parts) Thankfully there's a script that will automate the process: http://psyko3d.50webs.com/tools/autolink.zip Be aware that object01 and box01 arent valid names, you have to respect the naming convention. When naming non standard body parts (or accessories), the extra part will always contain the name of it's parent mesh. For example, if i've made a pair of sunglasses, it will inherit the parent's name like this: head_sunglasses. This naming convention cannot be changed, and you have to select that mesh and link it to the head (its parent in this case). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psyk0Sith Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 -Use maxscript tool in 3D Max, -The tutorials are located right here -It doesnt matter, Jedi Outcast and Academy use the same process for rigging player models. -No problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander1988 Posted March 9, 2006 Author Share Posted March 9, 2006 Alright now im REALLY frustrated!!! error its says in cant find the MC5 bone, really strange cause i deleted it form the skin modifier, and the rest of that list!!! IM CONFUSED!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyk0Sith Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 -Make sure none of the tags are weighted to some of these bones. -Try deleting some of them from the skeleton, see if the error message changes...if so then delete all found in the list. (I simply left them out of the skin modifier and it compiled fine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander1988 Posted March 9, 2006 Author Share Posted March 9, 2006 ok i deleted al bones in the list from the skin modifier... i still get an error that he cant find MC5 so i deleted the bone from the scene. then i get that bolt_l_hand has no weigths. so i deleted that thing. and then i get the this error the same i got a few days ago.... i used the kyle katarn model from your hompage, and i opend it in max 7! should that be a problem?

Psyk0Sith Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 You CANNOT delete tags! Simply reweight the tag to another bone The reason you see same errors is because carcass will keep showing one type of error at a time, once you fix something you will see other "stages" of errors until you fix everything.

Psyk0Sith Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 LOL, just take one step at a time, i agree, carcass is a real bitch...but the process is a big part of the problem. If not already done, you should do the following: -Rename the "lhand_tag_bone" to "lhang_tag_bone". -The l_hand and r_hand tags have to be weighted to the l_hang and r_hang bones respectively.

Botch Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I followed the tutorials on Psyk0Sith's page step by step, and my model went through carcass perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
