WEBVTT 00:00.120 --> 00:07.920 Welcome to rerigging our model in this video you will unparented your lamp meshes and join them together 00:08.250 --> 00:10.490 ending up with one meche object. 00:10.650 --> 00:17.140 You'll rename your virtex groups and bones so that they match one another and finally test your new 00:17.160 --> 00:18.440 brigg. 00:18.540 --> 00:21.030 So let's hop straight on over in a blender. 00:22.320 --> 00:28.170 Okay so before we go any further forward we're going to hop into object mode. 00:29.580 --> 00:36.810 And we're going to select all of our objects going all the way up to the very top or all the way down 00:36.810 --> 00:43.200 it doesn't matter because whatever we end up with we're going to end up in renaming it anyway because 00:43.200 --> 00:44.660 it won't be appropriate anymore. 00:44.880 --> 00:47.090 So let's just join those together. 00:47.280 --> 00:49.020 Excellent so they're all joined together now. 00:49.020 --> 00:53.760 Let's just have a look in the outline of where this is sitting is still sitting under the lamp rake. 00:53.760 --> 00:58.380 I'm just going to drop it to the left click and drag and clear the parents. 00:58.620 --> 01:06.060 Okay so now that is clear one thing I have noticed is that the rules of one section of it have been 01:06.060 --> 01:06.690 reversed. 01:06.690 --> 01:08.540 They need flipping back round. 01:08.820 --> 01:13.430 Okay so but now that it's one mesh it can be a bit tricky to do that. 01:13.470 --> 01:20.610 Not so because we've assigned virtex groups and one thing you'll notice is here now and the object data 01:20.850 --> 01:25.610 properties because we brought all these together all the vertex groups have joined together. 01:25.740 --> 01:29.090 So I'm going to select nothing at all. 01:29.190 --> 01:35.350 Go to the upper arm the one that's reversed or discord upper in this case and go select. 01:35.460 --> 01:36.720 Excellent. 01:36.720 --> 01:44.250 Now I can simply go to mash Normal's and flip the normal so the right way round excellence that's now 01:44.250 --> 01:45.680 sorted out. 01:45.810 --> 01:46.900 They look fine before. 01:46.910 --> 01:49.460 Perhaps I miss the fact I've made it inside out. 01:49.470 --> 01:51.920 Anyway that's now sorted. 01:52.090 --> 01:54.550 Okay so now we've got this here. 01:54.570 --> 02:02.080 We need to rename virtex groups so that they match the bones or the other way round. 02:02.250 --> 02:06.110 So let's start with the shade itself. 02:06.120 --> 02:09.170 So let's turn the armature back on so we can see it. 02:09.450 --> 02:16.780 And we've got a shade and what's the upper part of our lamp called it's just called lamp shade. 02:16.780 --> 02:19.370 So I'm going to rename that shade. 02:19.770 --> 02:26.520 Okay now that this and the actual part of the mesh is called Shade. 02:26.520 --> 02:28.570 They should work. 02:28.800 --> 02:30.280 Well let's go and try that now. 02:30.300 --> 02:32.880 We do need to add a new modifier to our lamp. 02:33.150 --> 02:37.310 So let's first of all call it a lamp because that's what it is now. 02:37.800 --> 02:38.650 Excellent. 02:38.820 --> 02:39.870 So we've got a lamp here. 02:39.900 --> 02:43.830 Let's add a modifier an added armature modifier. 02:44.130 --> 02:47.360 And I'm being completely blind Let's try that again. 02:47.680 --> 02:50.520 I'm not being blind I had to scroll up low resolution and all that. 02:50.520 --> 02:58.630 Here we go deform armature and underneath object we need to set the object as the lamp rake. 02:58.950 --> 03:01.140 And to virtex groups. 03:01.220 --> 03:07.370 Now there's one very important thing that did apply before and doesn't apply now. 03:07.380 --> 03:10.730 And we need to go in to arm bones. 03:10.890 --> 03:16.570 So it's go into the lamp rake to shade and we want it to deform now. 03:16.670 --> 03:20.800 So in the Bowen properties here that scroll down deform is ticked. 03:20.820 --> 03:24.150 Okay so let's grab this and see what happens. 03:24.150 --> 03:25.340 Excellent. 03:25.350 --> 03:28.950 The actual lamp is now joined back to the mesh. 03:29.010 --> 03:30.000 Perfect. 03:30.000 --> 03:32.590 So we just need to do that with the rest of our model. 03:32.690 --> 03:34.560 But you guys know what's coming up. 03:34.560 --> 03:35.350 That's right. 03:35.370 --> 03:36.630 It's Challenge time. 03:36.630 --> 03:39.440 I'd like you to finish the rerigging. 03:39.600 --> 03:42.680 Make sure the bones are set to deform. 03:43.020 --> 03:48.070 Match names of bones and virtex groups don't mind which way you do it. 03:48.120 --> 03:54.210 It's just an exercise in this case obviously with a larger model you would probably want to be more 03:54.210 --> 03:58.050 precise with your bones nain and not make them so generic. 03:58.290 --> 04:00.510 Otherwise this rig will not work. 04:00.660 --> 04:02.440 And then finally test your rig. 04:02.440 --> 04:05.800 Play back that animation see how it looks. 04:05.820 --> 04:08.270 Ball's video now and give that a go. 04:11.010 --> 04:11.640 Okay guys. 04:11.640 --> 04:12.270 Welcome back. 04:12.270 --> 04:19.170 Let's hop into blender and finish the rerigging So this should be relatively straightforward. 04:19.170 --> 04:25.380 We need to now do a couple of things and first of all I'm going to just make sure all the bones are 04:25.380 --> 04:27.990 set to deform. 04:28.530 --> 04:29.270 Excellent. 04:29.280 --> 04:31.470 It's all set to default. 04:31.470 --> 04:32.280 There we go. 04:32.280 --> 04:38.010 So now they're all set to deform we just need to make sure they're all named appropriately and hopefully 04:38.010 --> 04:40.030 they should just all take over. 04:40.050 --> 04:43.160 So we've got ourselves some virtex groups. 04:43.170 --> 04:52.070 Let's just go remind ourselves of what they called so in the object to tab up a shade lower and base. 04:52.110 --> 04:54.200 So working from here. 04:54.210 --> 05:01.020 This one's should be called base then just low lower and then upper. 05:02.160 --> 05:05.520 Let's give that a test and see what happens. 05:05.960 --> 05:07.080 A How about that. 05:07.080 --> 05:13.350 That looks pretty good and everything's moving about let's just test the animation too. 05:13.440 --> 05:14.870 Let's just press play. 05:16.110 --> 05:17.910 So he's looking around. 05:20.240 --> 05:22.510 Roll looks like. 05:22.540 --> 05:23.530 Oh yes. 05:23.560 --> 05:30.130 The reason why it looks a bit funny now is before we actually animates the base and the base actually 05:30.130 --> 05:32.270 no longer exists. 05:32.530 --> 05:37.630 Whereas all the rest of the movements were actually armature as well so there's a learning point there 05:38.290 --> 05:42.940 that sometimes if you redo your model you're going to lose something. 05:42.970 --> 05:50.770 In this case it was actually quite important so we would need to go back in and do basically redo the 05:50.770 --> 05:53.670 base animation and get it right. 05:53.680 --> 05:59.740 It will take several minutes to do that so I'm not going to do it right at this moment for you because 05:59.790 --> 06:05.990 you've got to export this now and see how it is and we'll do that in the next lecture. 06:06.070 --> 06:12.970 So see you soon remember to Shea or work Shea or rerigging as you can see the hierarchy now is much 06:13.030 --> 06:15.040 much cleaner than it's ever been. 06:15.040 --> 06:16.830 There are two objects in our scene. 06:16.840 --> 06:19.230 The lamp and its corresponding rig. 06:19.330 --> 06:21.550 And it controls it perfectly. 06:21.580 --> 06:25.610 So share what you've got and I will see you in the next lecture.
