sub-d rig with scale- Maya?

[poly-phobic]

ive never had to do that.
but one way is to create a low poly cage of your subD [just duplicate the subD and convert to poly, and skin the low poly to the joints,
export your subD character's wheight ,map, save it.
then with he low poly rigged, apply it as a wrap deformer to the subD, and just scale the rigged low poly up to your desired scale. the scale will of course scale up the subD with out losing you high level details, since it a wrap deformer,
then when u are satisfied, remove the wrap as a deformer on the subD [delete history or something]
then re-skin the subD, then import the exported weight maps.
now, this may or may not work depending on if maya export the weight maps as world space coordinates or just an image.

give that a try.

Thanks, but I just figured out what to do late last night. I just set scaling hierarchy to propogate. by default it's set to ignore. But thanks anyway.
