Assigning a mouth set...

Post by Okse »

I've created an animation and I want to assign a switch layer of mouths to a bone , I'm having difficulty.

Can anyone help please.

Well I am assuming that you have the mouth on the face and that the bone for your head is the one you want your mouth too move with...

SO go onto your mouth switch layer and than select the bone you want your mouth to move with ( head bone ) and click Bind Layer.

You can bind the layer (the switch layer) to the head bone. Click on the switch layer, then click the bind layer tool. Then select the head bone. You may have to click the bind layer icon again or something. I can't remember exactly.

But you won't be given the option to bind the layer if the mouth switch layer is inside another group. I don't know of a way to bind things that are within groups. But if it's in a group like "face," you can just bind that group layer to the bone instead.
