# BEST VIEWED IN CODING-ORIENTED TEXT EDITORS LIKE NOTEPAD++ # WORDPAD OR ANY BROWSER OF YOUR PREFERENCE WORKS TOO, BUT READABILITY SUFFERS # # # # # List of (useful) body bones with commentary # # # # # # Credits to Marco for compiling list of bones in the first place # This is less of a guide and more of a cheatsheet for people who are mad enough to use Advanced ABMX but don't know what bones to adjust # To fix face glithces just reload the character. # Body shape glithes (breasts drifting out of place, scewed pelvis etc) can only be fixed by exiting CharaMaker. # Out of all bones that have symmetrical pair (they all end with _L or _R suffix) only left side ones are listed # DOs & DON'Ts # Adjusting any bone also affects all of its children # Uneven scaling of bones with animated parts parented to it (whole arm/leg, torso, cf_j_neck, finger roots) will produce deformities in animations # Rotating cf_j_* bones of the body is a bad idea - those are joits used in animation (face bones are fine) # Bones commented with "ANIMCOR" are used by animation correction system, adjusting them with ABMX makes weird things happen # (they may prove usefull in Studio to get that last bit of perfection out of a pose tho) # Bones adjusted with ABMX sliders in Maker tabs are automatically added to Adv ABMX list. # To get a sense of what adjusting one bone will do, just look at its children. # Examples: # cf_j_neck affects both neck and head since cf_j_head is parented to it, while cf_s_neck only affects the neck itself # cf_d_bust01_L affects entire left breast, cf_s_bust01_L only affects root part of it # Good increments to use are 0.01-0.1 for scale, 0.001-0.01 for offset, 0.5-1 degrees for rotation. # Dont be afraid to move and rotate bones around, sometimes this is the only way to make things look good (broad shoulders for example) # If adjusting cf_d/j_smthn or cf_s_smthn bones seem to do the same thing I personally prefer to use cf_s* - less chance to screw things up # BL=Bone length, forth parameter in Advanced ABMX window. # Generally speaking, BL is the distance between given bone and its parent. In some cases (like cf_j_spine02/03) effect is pretty obvious, in some not so much. # Introduction of bone offset and rotation control made BL a bit less usefull chaF_001 cf_j_root cf_n_height # Entire body scale cf_j_hips # Scale this to correct IK animations (all axes should have the same scale): in default standing animations legs and arms should be very slightly bent, in "Bouncing" animation they should not toggle straight to bent. First scale this to get legs to correct length, then scale arms if necessary. cf_j_spine01 # Upper body cf_j_spine02 # Upper body from ribcage and above cf_j_spine03 # Upper body from upper ribcage and above cf_d_backsk_00 # Back parts of Top clothing w physics, like Sailor Collar back side cf_j_backsk_C_01 cf_j_backsk_C_02 cf_j_backsk_L_01 cf_j_backsk_L_02 cf_j_backsk_R_01 cf_j_backsk_R_02 cf_d_bust00 # (.
