huhu,
i run into another problem that seems quite strange and dangerous at
the same time.
i got a character, rigged in a model. he got a face rig with quite a
lot of shapes, that are connected to several clusters in his head.
the mixer weights are controled by "linked with" expressions. (is
there a name for these kind of expressions? like driven keys?)
when i reference the model into a new scene everything is fine. i can
control the shapes via the controls.
after saving and reloading i get SOMETIMES and error 3000 that it cant
connect to the clusters. then all the shape animation is gone
naturally and the controls dont have influence any more.
its not that the model looses the shape keys, its that the linked with
connections are gone!
i tried to reference in with prefix and without prefix. for some
strange reason it works sometimes and sometimes not.
anyone knows about this and got a cure?
i am trying to do my final student film for animationmentor in xsi and
spent the last 3 weeks digging into rigging. so far i got my
characters set up fine and would like to use referenced models in my
shots. i expect to have to update the rig/shapes while i am animating
along, so i suspect the ref models would be the way to go.
i COULD live with real models and switching them by hand, if i must.
ciao
franky
