Long time no posts,

Been too tired pushing crap at work, but had some time this week to update photos to my gallery and also work on some own, old projects! Will post some updates sometime soon, I hope.

Hi again!

This is a rigging experiment which i started to do last december, while learning some scripting and reading Jason Osipa’s excellent book.
I left this project for a while and continued it as i got new inspiration boost when i got Paul Neale’s rigging discs (i’m only halfway in disc two!) 1 months ago and decided to finish this thing.

I first made a Jason Osipa style rig in 3ds Max, second one is done with my own morph set and bones.
Both setups are rigged automaticly from script. I have also learned interface building and some simple error trapping. I have also done some small helpful tools for myself to help rigging - I posted a video of one of these too.

I think textures in test models need a lot of work, but learning rigging and scripiting was my main focus!

Rig Features:

- Automatic name independent rigging (one scene can have multiple similar rigs without any problems)
- Tongue rigging
- Animation driven bump texture blending
- 3 axis jaw rotation and position controls
- Joystick controls with movement limits. It simply isn’t possible to move joysticks in wrong direction, or outside their boxes
- Removal of rigging and animation information
