Hello
I'd like to create, let's say some kind of armband, that will follow all the various bodymorphs you can have with a Genesis character, so it conforms automatically like the existing assets.
How does one create that ? How does it work to have a mesh adapt to so many shapes ? is there some type of pixel constraint ? I can't find ressources on the subject..
Thanks

    If you use transfer rigging on your armband with the character as source, then it will default autofollow if your character is morphed.

    It might cause some unwanted distortions, if the armband is intended as a hard object, which can be minimized by set (part of) the armband as rigid.

    Thanks, but is there somewhere documentation on the whole process? How should you prepare the mesh, how to import it... if you'd like to become a vendor for instance you must know all that..

    I am not aware of any documentation.

    For modelling clothing and (rigged) accessories you want to model towards the base character, so when you import your object it will fit the character.

    I think I have seen a product in the store describing the process, but can't remember.

    I have a series of tutorials, start with flat sandals - that will give you a good overview on what's involved :)
