Try to build models at the same
scale that they will be used at in game (1 SI unit = 1 metre).
 |
This may not be
practical for skinned, jointed models in Soft.
|
|
|
The skin's mesh should be the root
of the joint heirarchy; its origin should coincide with Soft's global origin.
|
Directly below
the center of the model at ground level.
|
|
|
Mixings skins and sub objects should
be avoided if possible.
|
If absolutely
necessary, sub objects should be sloted into the joint heirarchy.
|
|
|
Keep joint heirarchys logical and
give the joints descriptive names.
|
|
Any Soft control nodes should be in
their own separate hierarchy.
|
|
The joints act like the sub objects
of a heirarchy, so the same naming convention rules apply.
|
i.e. add
'_chunk' to the name of a joint that should be the root of an automatically created chunk.
