I’m having some trouble with my vertex groups and I thought this would be the best place to find help for my problem. I have a vertex group for a cape my character wears, and I am attempting to make them deform based on the character’s torso. I have the vertex group named after his torso bone, but the group still isn’t working properly. In short: How do i make a vertex group follow the movements of a particular bone?
Well, just have to check. Is an Armature modifier added to the cape with the Armature object name in the OB field?
That would be a start.
Second, take a look here and see if there is anything you are missing:

Thanks a lot. I hadn’t used the weight paint before, but it worked really well. Thanks again
