Simple game riging

“Simple game riging” by Sean Hewit
The easy fix here is to group the IK handles. After that you should be able to freeze transforms on them, as well as they will stick in space. If you do want the arms and legs to stick with the COG, you can always parent the groups under the COG.

Now again, rather than paint both sides of the rig, we can simply paint one side and then mirror the other half.

Again, you may need to do some trial and error to figure out which orientation is right for your case.

So we’ve covered the basic here as far as rigging. There are some areas I’ve skimmed over some here, but there are plenty of resources out there on skinning. My goal was to cover some of the items often not covered, at least from what I’ve seen, that as we go on become very important. Good luck
