rig problem

[Dis]

before you parent to the null object, make sure "parent in place" is enabled. this might do the trick. it seems the pivots of your object are not at zero and this *might* cause the weird offset.

i don't fully understand the problem
But have you got AFTER IK ON in the follower options
this can do odd things to the rig if left on
turn it OFF

but if everysingle thing is parented to the Main Control Null it should still work correctly hmmm....:hmm:

maybe turn follower OFF for a sec
that's is the only motion plug you got working isn't it ?
and see what happens ? :wip:

[Dis]

on the other hand, i simply cant believe you didnt think of that. does disabling follower work perhaps ?

no, the problem happened before I even tried to add follower to some of the other bone.

I just want to get my bounding box back to the center of the object....as you can see from the image, it's moved to the back of the object, and this causes problems later when I want to use follower.

I tried resetting the pivot of the mesh but it stays in the same place...almost as if it's thinking that the object is sitting in that possition....but it's not.

i've done this myself so i had to check it out

you've moved your root bone away from you main object
reset the root bones position and you'll be back to normal

in the pics above i've move the root bone and got the same pic as your yours

if not post again
