Hi

I've been wondering about this for a while.

I've searched but either I'm not looking for the right thing, or it isn't an option.

What I'm talking about it actually making a prop part to the figure not just parented to it.

Here's a simple example of what I'm talking about.

Say you have a zeroed figure, and you put a Torus around the arm like a bracelet or arm ring.

Now when animating even the parented objects tend to move or get distorted.

What I want to know is there a process that would make this prop an actual part of the figure so that whatever the figure does the prop now part of the figure adopts all the characteristics of the model, and is no longer seen as a separate object?

On a more complex level, I'd love to be able to do this with clothing so that I don't have to constantly fight the battle of making the clothes move with the figure.

In other words I'd like to be able to create something like Casual James which has the clothing integrated into the figure, but with my choice of clothing.

Any information appreciated.
