Tools in Stager to allow for user-specified Hierarchial groups and rotation joints
I've posted to 'Stock' on the subject of hierarchial grouping and proper rotation axies in Stock (premiun) assets as a basis for this concept.
I bought the beautiful (static) model of a 'Praying Mantis.' It is nicely done!
Problems is that we have no way to actually 'Pose' the model in Stager. Cannot rotate the head, twitch the tail or flick a 'finger.'
Stager *needs* to allow users to delve down into their hard earned assets and make them come alive - albeit in a Static context. We don't need to animate the little critter, just to articulate it out of it's bug-on-a-pin attitude in order to give it Attitude.
So: Function in Stager to take a Static Model (from Stock, or not), setup Hierarchial groups with all the primary rotation axies so that we can take our store-bought assets and make them really ours.
(Deformation tools would be nice too...)
