Bone binding problem?

Post by Hans Rickheit »

Hello!

I only get to work on my animation project in little chunks of time, often seperated by weeks of other things that demand my attention. Consequently, I tend to get fuzzy on the basics of the program when I do finally return to work on the project.
For insyance, the current problem i’m having at the moment probably has an easy fix - but it eludes me.
In the image, the girl is pulling an object by a rope. I attempted to put bones in the rope, so that it could “droop” betwwen moments when she tugs it behind her. I’ve tried binding the bone several times with the result that can be visible in the screenshots included here.

What am I doing wrong?

Looks like there aren't enough points in that part of the rope, so it can't be warped.
