UI update - Major fix for IK legs
Added 2024-10-09 15:22:53 +0000 UTCHi everybody,
I discovered a major issue (and a lesser one) with IK legs yesterday thanks to @StrykerCA. Issues only affect models that have heel bones (released after january 24).
After scratching my head on how to solve it for the last 24 hours, I come with a fix for both.
The first issue : switching to IK in any other pose than the basic pose was causing issues, mainly IK foot bone not being moved to the correct place. It's hard to believe neither I, nor anybody else, noticed that before.
The second issue is smaller. Basically IK didn't work well with heel poses, now it does.
The fix for the first issue must be applied manually, the second one is automatic.
How to apply the fix:
1) Download and install the UI addon update. Both blender 4.2 (UI v2.2.1) & legacy 4.1 (UI v2.1.40) versions have been updated.
2) Open the model, if your model is in a pose, save the pose because the next step will clear the pose
3) go to IK/FK section, then Fixes (at the bottom), and click on "Fix IK Heel Issues". If the fix is applied correctly, the button should disappear. If you don't see the button, it means the model doesn't need it.
4) Reapply your pose if needed and enjoy
I'll also update the models with the fix in the coming days so that future downloaders won't be affected. Upcoming models will have the fix already.
I've also uploaded a version of the daz addon for blender 4.2. I recommend you install it if you use blender 4.2.
Let me know if you identify new issues...hopefully not :/
