Day 9 : Class

1230 - 134 PM


  • Realized that I had forgotten to set up Portable Hard drive + to bring files for the Yokai project into class
  • Set up drive on netbook
  • Reset it with iMac at home (mild confusion) and dropped the files onto drive
  • Opened file Yokai_2.c4d saved new file called Yokai_weighted.c4d on drive
  • Fixed the position of the legs as well as the weighting, though there seems to be a slight problem. The legs look a little pigeon-toed but I can't quite tell at the moment
  • Organized folders on drive
  • Blogged

134 - 217 PM

  • Completed fixing the weighting in the arms, but they were still bending wrong so I...
  • Cleared the weighting
  • Went back and deleted the I-K Chains for the legs
  • Got rid of the unnecessary roots in the feet
  • Bent the knee joints in the right direction
  • I think that I'm going to delete the I-K Chains in the arms as well due to how they aren't quite bending the right way
  • Saved File as YokaiWeighted_3.c4d in drive
  • I-K Chains in arms deleted
  • Replaced the I-K Chains for both legs
  • Tested > +
  • Bent the joints in the arms
  • Replaced the I-K Chains for both arms

220 - 312 PM

  • Saved file named Yokai_Rigged.c4d on drive
  • Started watching the (wrong) tutorial for the walk sequence > redirected to the easier walk sequence tutorial
  • Re-weighted the body, there was a twist in the left shoulder so I undid the weighting and looked at the other shoulder's rotation and repositioned it with the rotate tool
  • Put final weighting on the body
  • Saved file as Yokai_Rigged_1.c4d 
  • Watching the easier walk Sequence
  • Went back and checked the weighting, there is some fixing to do
  • The left arm's I-K Chain is bending the wrong way because somehow I managed to bend the joints the wrong way and not notice.
  • Readjusted the joint positioning
  • Replaced I-K Chain in Left Arm
  • Re-weighted mesh
  • Making corrections to weighting
  • Adding all files from Computer Hard Drive to Portable Drive
