Hi,
I am using the new MB5 on Mac, & it's just great! I guess that every one have tried the 4 legged cat in the MB samples, I a tiring to create similar bones from Lightwave to MB, but I have problems, Does any one know how to set it up or can post the proper setup from LW >MB5??

Thanks for your support:hmm:

might help a little, I think I'm almost done, then I'll post so everybody can download it.

Theres a few problems, but it characterizes OK. gonna tweak it, then let 3Ddave look it over.

I pretty much followed the cat skel, with a few name changes from 3Ddaves original biped.

just about done, theres a few small things preventing a 100% characterization, but it works, a few days should do it.

ok, should be ready this weekend. I fixed the characterization problem, there were several unique bones that had me stuck for awhile.

I think I'll redo the rig, to clean it up, then should be OK.

good catch, still checking it, Im not too big on all the MB features, but this may be more tied to the floor contacts, and other effector features of MB.

I'll see what I can figure out.

You can do things like pin the T and R on the hands, that should stop that.
