Description
lots of people have been learning to model and stuff lately, so I figured I'd make a tutorial on rigging. its hard to explain tho so please don't ask me to explain it better e-e. I'd have to show you. so go get skype and I shall attempt to do so if you wish. but if you give up to easy I wont help you >->. modeling takes persistence and patience as well as the will to force yourself to complete it.The model used is an OC. its not done. it needs belts added, and obviously a head.
and I'm using "PMDEditor_0100" if you'd like I can reupload that versions since its about a half a year old. I hate the newer once since you can't remove the damn annoying circle thingy.
Now back to watching Kaitou Siant Tail \ o /

Hello! Your turorial is really helpful. ^^ I still have to ask something though: how do I rig pants? ewe This may be a kinda stupid question but I'm a hell of a newbie when it comes to PMD Editor... >< I've been trying to attach short shorts to my model with this method but it didn't work as I expected it to. Could you please help me? :3

I hope this is not a silly question, but...
Suppose I have a model in .obj format. How would I go about turning that into a pmd so I can rig it up?
π: 0 β©: 2
acutally, PMXe opens OBJ

If you modeled it in blender, there is this MMD tools for blender to convert it to .X file to go into pmd/pmx. If its in Metaseq, if you have a standard licence, the program has a thing where it exports it to pmd. Hope that helped!

[Admin: Actually, you can! You just need the Weight Transfer Plugin to do it! Here's a good tutorial:Β fav.me/d8963k0 (NOTE: The tutotial on the Weight Transfer Plugin is on the far left/the one with the blue background.)]

I want to rig a hat to a head. How do I rig to head bone??
π: 0 β©: 1
You click on the head bone and click on your hat's material, use 100 all over that moffo :3

You're very welcome :3~

Mmmmmmh... When I finish to rig a bone, it's work. But when I rig an other bone, the second bone is working but not the first o_o
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, I'm having the same problem :S
it's like one bone is canceling out the other or something
π: 0 β©: 1
I found ! Exemple Go to the clipboard (in bone sure) and :
arm1: Parent -> shoulder, child -> arm2
arm2: Parent -> arm 1,Β Β Β Β Β child -> hand.
hand:ETC......
Now try and normally that's work (if you have any problem you can note me)
π: 0 β©: 2
Ooh, yeah, the parent bones were off >~< Thank you
π: 0 β©: 1
Your welcome !

And if you rig the bone arm1 : Just rig the part of you want the vertex moving. JUST THE PART OF THE BODY (bones can't have the same vertex in rigging)

Thanks a lot! I had to re-read it several times but I get it now :3 I have one problem though. This is what happens when I make my model 'bow':Β oi58.tinypic.com/2u73cp1.jpg
There are weird things sticking out. Is there a way I can fix this?
π: 0 β©: 3
I dunno if you're still having the problem, but it means those polygons aren't rigged. or perhaps are rigged to the wrong part. Its a common and easy mistake, you gotta find the spots that aren't rigged to fix it. (sorry for late reply I don't get on this account much)
π: 0 β©: 0
its like that because u missed a vertex
π: 0 β©: 0
i also have that problem did you happen to fix it? :3
