ACS3 Dev Blog | Assembling Spider Rig
The development work on Auto Character System 3 is progressing. Today I have a quick overview video for you that previews the process of assembling spider rig from 2 modules: hub and a spider leg. After the rig is put together it is saved as new rig preset which can then be dropped into other scenes (also shown on video). The Save Rig feature allows you to save out your rig as new preset at any time and the saved asset will include all the meshes (bind meshes, rigid meshes, proxies) as well. This way you can save not only bare rigs but entire rigged characters too. The video also shows dropping guide and poses presets onto the rig - features that are reimplementations of similar functionality that is present in ACS2 already.
Note that the video playback speed is between 2 and 3 times faster then realtime and there is no audio.
