i'm working on a problem right now, maybe one of you can help. i've got an influence object with set-driven keys driving its blend shapes - the problem: it seems the influence object only influences the smooth bound object if the transform nodes are changed (scale, translate, rotate) but when individual cv's are moved they don't have any effect on the skinned object, alas the blend shapes have no effect - why? i'm sure i'm missing something obvious...

thanks for any help

hey rusted nut.....i believe you need to check "use componants" in the skin cluster node to "on" then it should work....

hope that helps,

sedric
