Does anyone know what is wrong with this rig?

odinb14 2 weeks ago updated by Peter - Soxware Developer 1 week ago 1

I dont realy know what to ask, other then is it looking like this because of UMotion or did someone fuck this rig up ?

I paid someone to do some animations and a rig. Thats fine at all, but this thing looks realy weird after importing it to UMotion. Maybe they look always like this from some specific 3D software?

It's so much work to move this thing like this, almost every single bone has positions, rotations, scale and so on ...

Hi odinb14,
thank you very much for your support request.

Your rig looks normal to me, what exactly are you referring to?

Even though each bone has position/rotation/scale, you really only rotate bones (just like in real life). Moving a bone would mean moving it out of it's joint. You can hide the position and scale properties via the config mode of the pose editor. You can also hide bones you don't need in that mode.

I see that you've also setup IK for the arms and feet. In that case, you can move the IK Targets (the wire cubes) and the IK algorithm automatically updates the rotation of the arm/feet bones to reach the IK target.

Please let me know in case you have any follow-up questions.

Best regards,
Peter
