In this second part of the Mammoth rigging tutorial Nathan Vegdahl will show you how to create good looking deformations. Even the best rig and control setup won’t help if you didn’t setup proper deformations. Unnaturally deforming skin, weird wrinkles and intersecting faces can destroy every rig.
There are different ways how you can assign weighted vertex groups to your mesh: automatic weights, weight-painting and manual weighting, with automatic weights being the quick and dirty way and manual weighting the most precise albeit tedious way. We went for the precise way which gives you a lot of control over the weights of every vertex but takes a lot of time and is a challenge of it’s own. That’s why we decided to separate it from the other part of the tutorial, where we cover bones and controls, and only focus on the deformations in this one.
Warning: Be sure to scan all the downloaded files with your Antivirus and if there is an executable or installer file, make sure to have your antivirus active and open in the background while installing or running the app. Some of the materials posted here are downloaded from CGPeers, So they could potentially have something injected in them.
We always ask bloggers to scan all the files before publishing the posts, but sometimes it's hard to detect all these things, so if you found anything suspicious (Not false positive, Generic, Patcher, Riskware and Heuristic results, most patches could get false flags like that by some Antivirus companies.) be sure to post comments with the file name and a VirusTotal report result link or the file MD5 Hash (higher than 30% overall positive result). Thank you.
