Hi Gavin, The scale change was actually implemented with v1.1, so if you're using that version you should be working at the same scale as v1.5 ( now v1.5.1 ).
As Eric mentioned it may be better to keep using the same version you started the project with. If you really need to update mid-project here are a few things you can do to quickly transfer your older characters to the new rigs: - If you have characters at the original 1.0 scale follow this tutorial video - https://vimeo.com/37260802 Otherwise: - You can store the configuration of your old PropRigs using our PropRig StorePose tool. Next, import a 1.5 PropRig into your scene and drag and drop the stored pose from your old PropRig into the new PropRig's mixer. Now you can select the pose in the new PropRig and run the PropRig ApplyPose command to resize the new PropRig to match the old PropRig. You may need to adjust the hands and fingers slightly to match your old character as our default hand poses have changed. - Next you can use the PropRig ReplaceMesh function to transfer the mesh from your old character to the new resized PropRig. If you have a custom envelope on your old character you should be able to load it after this step as the names of our deformers have all remained the same. After loading a custom envelope, be sure to rename the envelope ( under the EnvelopeWeightCls ) to "Envelope_Weights" and do a Freeze M on the mesh. Hope this helps! -Chris On Tue, Jul 10, 2012 at 9:49 AM, Chris Covelli <kylevar...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Everyone, > > Just an FYI, we discovered a small bug with our licensing code that was > causing a few crashes for some of our users. > > The problem has been fixed and we have issued an update which can be found > here - > http://exocortex.com/releases/ExocortexSpecies1.5.1.zip > > > On Tue, Jul 10, 2012 at 3:49 AM, Szabolcs Matefy <szabol...@crytek.com>wrote: > >> Well, it’s not just production J Actually it decreases the time I spend >> on technical parts (basemesh, posing, skinning), and let me be creative J >> **** >> >> ** ** >> >> Thanks guys,**** >> >> ** ** >> >> ** ** >> >> Szabolcs**** >> >> ** ** >> >> *From:* softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com [mailto: >> softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com] *On Behalf Of *Eric Turman >> *Sent:* Tuesday, July 10, 2012 8:17 AM >> *To:* softimage@listproc.autodesk.com >> *Subject:* RE: Exocortex Species 1.5 Released!**** >> >> ** ** >> >> The funny thing is, Eric was against such a tool back in 2008.
