itsmeagain · December 17, 2007, 09:20:34 PM

ok so i got one part of a mesh to go on another mesh, i attached it to a bone but when i play the item bounces up and down, and doesnt stay in place. how can i make it so it stays attached to the figure?

Redo the skope but this time remove the niskininstance of the node.

Can someone add this to the FR Wiki? This is one thing that I keep forgetting. It would beat dumping a whole skope out of frustration.

remove the niskininstance? um.............. ok how do you do that? where do i look?

You go through the node you want to copy.
Go a few steps underneath it and you'll find NiSkinInstance.
Right click, highlight block, Left click Remove Branch.
Copy the node again and paste it to the other mesh bone.

QuoteSo, we paste the horns onto a bone. Open up the block view at:

bip01, bip01 footsteps,bip01 pelvis,bip01 spine,bip01 spine1,bip01 neck,bip01 head

select THIS node (bip01 head), right click and block,paste branch.

The horns will appear somwhere, possible near the head. Don't worry about this because you aren't done yet. The horns have physique information that now gets in the way. You won't believe how much those horns will move if you keep it. You need to dispose of it. But first rename the horns. double click on the new horns value 'horns' and change it to read 'horns2'. This renaming is important. Click to open up all horns2 child nodes. See the NIskininstance node and its children? They are the source of all sorts of anguish if you leave them there. Click on the NIskininstance node, right click and select block,remove branch. Poof!

It's one of the first major paragraphs in Tutorial #1, which deals with "Cloning, attaching mesh pieces to bones and removing phyique data."
