Ima beginner but i know how to use blender(learned it fast) but i think my rigs are kinda sucky & i saw superboy3's tutorial on assigning the bone to the vertices & i didnt get it but this helped me. I might try to rig assigning the vertices now.
hay dude make things easier when doing the amrs an legs . make one side then click them all then hit shift d to dupe them then esc , then press ctrl m then x but make sure ur curser thing is placed in the middle of the things chest n it will put ur bones on the other side
ADVICE : when he says to make sure it's not sticking out of the body just make sure you have all armatures selected and go to the logic panel then click invisible and it will not show up in the render. It's as simple as that
To add the armatures you need to target the proper zone on the ginger bread man (such as the shoulder's or legs). To target these zones press the "1" number key and click the place on the ginger bread man you want to add the armature, then press the "space" key and go to the "add" tab and near the bottom of the subcategory is the option to add an armature. Hope this helped you
hey man something is missing in the bar in which you choose the name of the bones to assign them to the vertex groups it just says vertex groups what should i do???
I do also have the newest Blender version, and it does not say "Create from closest bone" when I write ctrl+P. Instead it stands "Create fron envelopes" and "Create from Bone Heat". What should I press?
Save. then do the old teq. Which helps more than anything. TRY and FAIL =) in the end you'll find out. and now what NOT to do. rather than knowing WHAT to do.
dude the music plays at the begining, he doesn't talk while the music is playing, you can here him just fine. Plus it's his video he can add music if he wants.
Stupid. I meant that if my volumes are even a little bit high the music comes like AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH in your ear. You mute or put volume down and wait for it to stop. When it does, you don't hear anything of the talk.
Plus you would never be good in any kind of job that has to interact with other ppl - you're so selfish, you're like "it's my store why should i listen to him, i can shit on the floors if i want, my store, my store"
Does this also work for models with interchangeable/multiple parts? I ask because i'm kinda confused as to how something like a mecha would work with this method.

Hey this really helped but um i was using this on my character whic is difficult than the gingbreadman because i made a mionster.But when i choose the face, the job your doing in 18:28 i everytime i select the front it will select the ssider the foot the face because mine has lots of vertex 100 more than yours.How do i make it just i want to select the front not the other body parts?
You make a great tutorial! However i'm not sure if you're making it simpler for newbies, or if you don't know a few things that would help out. For example: when pressing "g" for grab, you can next press Y, X, or Z to restrict movement to that direction. This is helpful for butting that bone back into the arm. Nice tutorial!
hey i tried doing an object, but when i try changing the colors say for the body, it works, but lets say i want to add another object and i don't want for it to be the same color as the body, what can i do? becasuse everytime i add a new object the defult color is the same that i used for the body, and if i try changing the color everything turns to a differnt color, what can i do?
When I click around, that little crosshair doesnt appear. When I spawn stuff, I can't find it anywhere. I did this tutorial up untill right before this one, and now I cant do anything, any help?
Yeah! My first blender animation! I did it, its rendering now. One thing though i was try to move the man but the armature was left behind. Did i miss a step? anyway it anime and render well.
thanks man that helped alot ;) and dude...when i go back to solid view and go to top view i see the words like hand.l and stuff like tha sticking out of his chest...is that a problem?
you are great man but i wanna you to learn us how to make completely body animation and something else :) if you gonna make as i tell you...you have to make the person look like a person (good eye,good hand and good legs) take the time and if you do it you gonna be awowsme
YAY thanks. You're actually teaching us to make somthing the last tutorial i tried was teaching us to do absolutely NOTHING lol. can't wait to animate my gingerbread. ON TO THE NEXT TUTORIAL -clicks-
i would like to say thank u to u (even tho ur voice drives me crazy!) and albartus ho made motas and without motas i would have never heard of blender.
DUDE U HELPED ME SOOO MUCH WATCH MY VID I FOLLOWED EVERY STEP U DID, except wen i screwed it up and had to restart, i did wat i remembered, and followed from the mess-up point, please tell me what u thnik, (i subscribed too)
i was a little confused on how to right click on the armature at the same time clicking on the man to make them parent because i have a mac. message back
erm...select the body, hold down the shift and select the armature. all with the right click, make sure the armature is rose, not purple, and then just pres CTRL+P parent and the strikesmemmber showed as how.
I did everything, exactly how you did, and it worked on the GingerBread, though when I tried it on my own Model (A normal human), It worked fine, though the finger's didn't move with the rest of the arm?
if you use weighy paint just paint those finger vertices to finger bones, or assign them with vertex groops but if you hape now finger bones then you have to assign them to closest bone wrist, arm whatever make sure you assign all of them, use vertex groops in modifier, enveloops work only with the vertices nearby
One of the most thorough video tutorials I've seen, almost down to the obvious;) This is not a problem at all, however, a newbie could long for no more than that.
