Re: Target bones between different bone layers

It's common practice to animate each scene as a separate project file... Oh I know, believe me, I usually would. Initially this was a much smaller project, but the scope of it has changed and grown over time. Gradually, so I didn't quite see it at first. Alas, I've learned not to yield to my own st...

Re: Target bones between different bone layers

Yes I can confirm that layer scale and X-Y translation doesn't affect this script at all. I even scaled and translated both layers during the tracked animation and it still worked correctly.

Target bones between different bone layers

Good evening! I've been struggling with this for a while. I need to be able to link layers between 2 separate rigs (i.e. 2 bone layers) so that the characters interact with each other. Whilst I did come across this old post from 2016, the issue was never solved. Putting both characters into a single...
