What the hell is up with my rigging???

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

I am having some nasty issues with rigging and I need help before I pull all of my hair out.

  1. I will be posing my character and suddenly without any warning my model zooms off the screen and becomes differcult to rescale to fill the screen again. The only way I have founds to fix this is to unbind my mesh. This is rubbish because I lose my pose.

as if that wasn’t driving me mad enough then this problem satarted to happen.

  1. I think the image below helps to describe this issue. Basically if I rotate/ move anything the mesh starts to come appart (as the imagfe shows.

Please help, it’s probably because I am a newb to ZB rigging.

Look forward to some help

Somehow you have a double transformation happening. You should look at some of the controls you have set up. Did that just start happening? Have you kept several saves after each set of the rigging process. If so you may be able to help diagnose the step were you went wrong. I know that in Maya when this happens its due to double transformations. Its compounding your movements.

I hope this helps

This is a known issue. What I do to get around this is press “A” twice then “F” You should be good to go. You are just turning on and off adaptive skin and then centering the model on the screen. It happens to me all the time and can get very frustrating. Hopefully it will get fixed on the next update.
