Hi All,

What is your best setup for Maya smooth bind dialog box?

Closest joint/closest distance?
Max influence?
Drop off rate?

I tried finalrig and the setup they are using is excellent!!! I dont know what it is though...

Thanks

Hey man,

when I'm rigging using smooth bind under Maya I tend to use the following:

Bind to: Complete Skeleton
Bind Method: Closest Joint
Max Influences: 3
Dropoff Rate: 2.0

typically works pretty decent...other times I may modify the Bind to setting to a Selected Joints and bind with a Max Influence of 5 and a Dropoff Rate of 4...pretty much depends on the character and bone structure really.

Personal preference! :thumbsup:
