Hello people, I could use a little help on this one...
Im working on a grouped object that Im trying to set for jointing/rigging/poseability Carrara style and am having trouble setting the exact location of my hot points...
Truth be known, Im working on a door hinge. Its a grouped object, and I need it to "bend" at the pin. My problem is trying to get the hinge to bend at center pin, so I need the doorframe side and door side hinge to have the same hot point as the pin. When I try to exact the location of the hot point of the hinges, it refuses to be at the same space as the pin, and Im entering the locations numerically, copying the position of the pin to the position of the hinges.
The hot point of the hinge wont go exactly where the hot point of the pin is, and the offset makes for poor repositioning/bending/rotating of the door hinge as a whole...
Any ideas or ways I can set them to take up the eaxct same location?!?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
