Rigging with a Mirror Modifier

Support Animation and Rigging

Hi everyone,

I’m fairly new to Blender. Recently, I’ve come across a problem. The problem is when I make a character mesh, using the mirror modifier. When I rig the character’s arm with armature and vertex groups, the arm on the mirrored side goes crazy when I move the arm bones. Please help.

Do I need to need to make the character without the mirror modifier?

Thanks!

Jon :cool:

When you’ve finished modeling the character with the mirror mod on, apply the mirror modifier before start rigging.

Thanks!!!
Didn’t know you can do that…
