Hi,

I recently created an IK character rig with the help of you guys - special shout out to Cactus Dan!

Anyway it generally works ok. However in my walk and run cycles the model inevitably develops an inexplicable ankle twist. It's not reflected in the joints/bones or controllers, but the skin gets warped at the foot.

attached is the beginning of a run cycle with the ankle twist in it.

any help would be much appreciated. thanks!

just from looking at your picture, it looks like your goals arn't moving with the foot controller, the toe seems to be pointing at something....

could we get a screenshot of your foot controller hierarchy?

Well I myself am still struggling to finish my first rig ever, so it could well be that I’m wrong. But I only see one pole for the legs and its connected to the left hip rather then the knee, but maybe this is intentional.

I also noticed that you swapped the left and right foot controllers, but could be this is only a naming thing.

Kind regards,



Robert
