I am following a tutorial. In the tutorial when I select 2 bones it asks me to parent them and select “Keep Offset”, but when I select (CTRL + P) to parent the 2 bones I don’t see “Keep Offset” as an option in 2.5. Is Keep Offset only in 2.49?
When I select the 2 bones and Parent them I get the options below.
Set Parent To Object
Armature Deform
• With Empty Weights
• With Envelope Weighs
• With Automatic Weights Bone
Keep offset is in 2.54 as well as 2.49- Make sure you are in edit mode when you are selecting the bones. Also it sounds like you made two armatures, instead of two bones - if you are duplicating them… you also need to make sure you are in edit mode
No problem, really easy to miss someone going into edit mode in a tutorial… I’ve had so many headaches trying to follow video tutorials when I missed a step like that =)
