One bone layer per character?

Post by wshore »

I may be the only one who doesn't know this, but is it necessary to create a new, separate bone layer for each character you want to rig?

Technically, you don't need a bone layer at all.

For my favorite rigs, I tend to have at least 5 bone layers for each view.

Just keep in mind that if you go over 1 bone layer per character, your physics won't work (version 7).
