I forgot how to hold gunz.

Hey guys!

So if any of you were around during Kadvarr's ambush simulation on .27, you may have noticed that I was holding my guns in very dangerous ways, but by the power of the Force, I did not accidentally shoot myself.

Anyway, would anyone be willing/able to help me out with adjust the hand on my model? The problem is present with all weapons, though only on the Jedi tunic model. If you're not quite sure what I'm talking about, here's a screenshot.

If anyone can help me, I'll be eternally grateful. Thank you.

Sounds like a tag problem to me. I'm very rusty given my time away but IIRC tags tell the game where everything is (such as your hand). Perhaps your tag is pointing in a direction that it's not supposed to be pointed.

Think you might be able to fix it? Also nice to see you again!

I'll see you on Skype. As far as the forums are concerned, I never left. :)

Even the training droids hold a blaster better than you, Dariun, and they hold them at a crooked angle!

I don't see anything wrong with the tag in blender but I'm not an expert.

I think Mr. Wolo fixed it. Yay!

Now for some shameless advertising. Wen and I should have a mission tonight. Prep should start between 1800 and 1900 and start at 2000gst.

If anyone is interested. Skype Wen.

Thought I'd document this for other modelers to see.

I concur with Trin that the tag looked fine. It was properly rigged to rhang_tag_bone. It was seemingly slightly moved from its original position, but I didn't think that would matter, given that it's simply linked to a correctly positioned bone anyway. Unable to explain the problem, I eventually just replaced the tag and that corrected the problem.
