angle constraint help

Support Animation and Rigging
1

Thanks to a friend of mine (he’s a fan of robotics), we successfully rigged this robot and reduce the size of the file to 12mb in 2.55b. (there are some differences in the model, but I will do some modifications in the future.)

there is however a problem, after i manage to do the constraints on the axes of the robot joints, the movement is still not going according to the limit angle i wanted.
(Attached is a sample what the problem is)

Here’s the blend file:

any ideas?
:rolleyes:

Nice looking robot. Here’s my rendition..

By the way, its good practice to build your armature/mesh at the Origin (0,0,0).

hmmm, ok…=D thanks man, I think I understand now.
2.55 seems to be more straight forward in terms of constraint features. =)
