But here is what happened. Simply added a Meta Rig and hit the generate button. Not all of the controls were visible. Then I select the hand control, turn the IK switch to 1 and finger controls grow out of the shoulder.
Anyone familiar with any changes? Or something I may be doing wrong since I used it last which was around 2.6 or so.
It could be broken or I am just a boob and forgot something.
Around 2.67ish, blender was set by default to not auto execute python scripts as a security measure. The rigify rig uses a python script for several things, user interface, fk<->ik snapping, etc, etc…
In the user preference, under ‘file’, enable auto execution of python scripts, and save your user preferences. Restart blender and load your file and you should be good to go.
One thing to note: python has access to all kinds of os system commands. So it’s possible to write a python script to delete files from your computer, and include it in a .blend file…
Given the nature of the FOSS movement, I doubt this would happen…
