Thanks for your patience on this video, everyone! 💖 It took numerous failed attempts over the course of over a week in order to get this tutorial as high quality and useful as possible so please like the video and comment below if it was helpful, it helps so much!! 💖💖

If your Rigify rig isn't lining up with your metarig, make sure you apply your transforms to the metarig first with Ctrl + A

[tiagox]

If your model's parts teleport away whem you try to rigify, mark the "keep transform" box. Worked with me.

[brattmatt]

Holy crap I had to do like 3 different things to make sure the rig set in right, including fixing normals like said in comments, make sure charecter is transform locked or something also in comments, and merge the model together with M merge by distance. After doing all that finally the model worked

[dubstepkin]

Merging by distance on every object helped me to fix my rig

[neozoid]

please do the tutorial on how did u animated her in this video!!

[tarad]

Enabling x axis symmetry is making my rig react weirdly if I try to move it around to match the mesh.. any idea what could be happening?

Crashsune, this tutorial has been incredibly helpful ^^ I've tried learning modeling at multiple times throughout my ife but this is really the only tutorial that has made sense for me. I am having one issue with rigging...for some reason my model's face won't move? Like the hair can be dragged around but the face model stays static...any reason why that might be happening?

thanks!

help i get a error every time i rig her rigify error bones spine 004 cannot connect chain bones position is disjoint

[simonw.]

I love your astolfo pfp he is really cute

[luca]

i reached the point were i rigged the skeleton and the model but when i move one foot the other moves instead and stretches out, what am i doing wrong?

[aogava]

If someone has a problem with mirroring bones. (Opposide bones attaching to each other when moved) That means that your character looks in the wrong direction. Make it face towards Y axis

[AProudLokean]

This is a great tutorial! I'm having trouble though. Her elbows just plain do not want to move and it makes her hand separate from her arms when I try to move it. Her knees don't have this issue when I move her feet though. I've tried adjusting the angle of her elbow in cause it was the issue you talked about where it didn't know where to crease, but I just cannot find out why it won't make a joint for her elbow. Do you have any advice?

[microthemicrowave]

"if your character has dobonhonkeroos" caught me off guard 💀

[cdoodle]

Awesome tutorial I've been following! Only issue I have is that when I move my dude around my hand is detached from the arm? How would I connect it back?

[TetraDroid]

very nice tuts. But i have been having problems lately with my mirror modifier on my right foot. it just stays inside of the original feet. i try to move it (the mirrored one) but it doesn't move individually..

[Cj_un]

Heyo, good tutorial but my plates that I had made for my characters face and front bangs are moving with my arms, is there something I'm missing?

[TheOfficialDryoArmy]

Thniking about buying the course before the price goes up, If possible could someone let me know whats the difference between just watching this series on youtube?

[IRK]

When i generate rig it's small, the skeleton is inside the 3dmodel perfectly but when i generate the rig it's so small, how do i fix that?
