Not regretting my rigging are we? :biggrin: The body handles are experimental. I use them alot, more for manipulating the mesh, and often delete them later. Brad has a gaggle of them , but I'll likely only keep two.
cheers.

I'm absolutely not regretting your rigging. I love it. I've only had to make very few adjustments over time, mostly fine-tuning of joint zones.

The handles are a great idea. I just decided that it would be easier to work on the cr2 with them out of the way for now. I'm not sure if you were reading here all the time, but some problems surfaced recently that I hadn't noticed before. For example, we tried to switch the handles off by replacing the geometry instead of just making them invisible, and that didn't quite work. More importantly, the "drop to floor" functionality can get very confused because it takes the handles into account.

I'm sure there's a way to have handles in the figure while avoiding the problems caused by including the handle geometry directly, but that's a mission for another day. At least as far as I am concerned. :laugh: I'm hoping once the "official" figure is getting more stable, it will spawn many "experimental" children and I'll be able to include the best features of those in later revisions.
