Mar. 24 (TUE)

Mon. 23 

Continuing my rigging adventures.

Spent a good hour and change trying to figure out why the knees of my puppet were immovable, the internet being of little help. The nesting of multiple groups wasn't an issue since my simple puppet was made the same way. Turns out, for some reason, it's tagging the heels that breaks the Limb IK system and locks the knees. Removing the heel tags fixed the issues, and leaving my initial draggable tags leaves it exactly as I wanted to.

 Now trying to figure out how to apply lipsync to various instances of mouths. 

 

 Tues. 24

Finally figured out how to keep my puppet from snagging (can't have a draggable tag in the chest and on the top layer of that puppet <- chest draggable will cause it to 'snag'). Took a while to figure that one out, as internet searches were yet again unhelpful. But the body rigging is fully finished now I think (including keys for switching various parts of my puppet). Going to switch over to testing lipsync and starting to record my audio.
