Question

Eye Rigging problem.....my first character and i try all day long to fix it...

It seems like the eyes fix on top of the pupil, because the rest is moving(or try to move)

 

I can also load up the character, but i am a little bit desperate...

 

Thx for any help 🙂

 

Merry christmas

It looks like your right pupil layer has a handle on it (see the number next to it?). These can cause problems like you are experiencing. Putting a tag on a handle is not the same (always) as putting a tag on the layer. The warping looks like the center of the pupil is getting stuck, near where the handle is. So my first suggestion is to remove the handle on the pupil layer.

 

If you turn on the yellow mesh icon at the bottom of the scene window it shows the mesh as it distorts. This can be useful during debugging. If you can see where in the mesh something is not moving (is stuck) that can narrow down where to find the problem. Eg i suspect it's the center of the pupil that is stuck, but watching the mesh as you move can confirm this.

 

''I am not used to the blink layer being nested, but that would not cause your problem.

 

I am not used to the eyebrows being inside the eye group - i would move it out as a sibling to the eye, but i don't think it's your problem either (but less sure of that).

Are you able to share the puppet? use export puppet from the menu and upload to google drive or dropbox etc. Sometimes it's faster.

A screenshot of the rigging hierarchy can be a big help. My guess is the pupil is not independent (or something is wrong in that area). I wrote up a blog of the most common errors I have seen a few years back; https://extra-ordinary.tv/2018/04/21/debugging-character-animator-eyess/ - might have a useful tip or two
