obj & bones

Post by apester »

have just purchased as 5 pro and need a little help.
i imported an obj and put bones into it, but when i use the manipulate bone tool the whole obj file starts moving instead of just the part the bone is in ( bone in arm=whole body moves and waves around)

any sugestions on how to fix this?

work with objs and bones is a issue in moho. animestudio. whatever.
you must separate your 3d object by parts. leg, leg2, arm, arm2, head, head2 (optional), etc. then, import this parts as several objs.

you must make a bone layer for each part, all inside other bone layer.
to move the objects, you can use the bones, but the bones movement is just 2d, so you can rotate in 3d each entire bone layer with the layer tools.

here is an example to download. 1mb.
in rar:

in zip (you must "save as" and rename the file as .zip):

(there is a lot of files, just open the .moho. remeber to unzip all before open)
