  • Weighting Issue / Fix Planes Pushing Through Box Animation

    Posted by Jay Ingles on April 13, 2012 at 3:29 pm

    I’m creating a very simple box opening animation and am having issues getting the planes not to push through each other. Does the box need to be “knifed” on the joints and re-weighted?

    The box (case of beer) is built with joints and will be UVW mapped with artwork.

    Any suggestions to solve this issue or insight to create a more desirable model would be helpful.
    Thanks!

    I think the problem is that you don’t have enough geometry at the joints to allow the flaps to bend properly.

    Yep, that was it. Thanks Adam.
