Attached Link: Knee Brace
Howdy,I'm posting this both in this forum and the LightWave forum as the solution may lay in LW or Poser.
I recently constructed a kneebrace in LW for use with M3. While it conforms very nicely to M3 in Poser, I noticed that at the hinge point it tended to distort upon bending. I spoke with a friend of mine who suggested increasing the size of the InnerMatSphere. While it did seem to help somewhat, the distortion for the most part is still evident. Then again, my experience with the Joint Editor and InnerMatSphere manipulation is very limited, so maybe I'm simply not understanding his suggestion fully. If anyone can offer a suggestion as to how to fix this distortion problem, or direct me towards a tutorial that addresses this type of problem, it would be greatly appreciated.
If you click on the attached link above titled "Knee Brace" you'll see an image displaying on the right side what the kneebrace looks like before it is bent and on the left side showing how the kneebrace distorts when it is bent.
Thanks in advance.
