more than one sim in blender hi hi! this may be a silly question with a simple answer that i just cant see but i cant for the life of me figure out how to work couple poses in blender, i try adding the pose and it gives them both the same one and i just dont know enough to figure out how to fix it-
It's not a silly question at all and I'm sorry it's taken me a few days to reply to this!
I'll include a link to Part Two of my Basic Render Tutorial that covers posting HERE, but otherwise, let me jump right in to a mini tut:
Here I have my sims in blender, unposed and stacked in a very creepy way lmao:
I haven't yet set them up for posing, so let's do that now.
To do this, select the "pose" option in your outliner under ONE of your sims, then in your layout view, hit "i" on your keyboard and select "location and rotation"
Then you'll see that sim's track show up in your nonlinear animation window.
Do the same for your second sim! Then you should have this:
Now we need to append our poses! Follow the instructions in that basic render tutorial I linked above and export both of the posses.
MAKE SURE YOU EXPORT THE POSES WITH THE PROPER RIGS, I.e. if you're doing a couple pose like I am, make sure you export the female pose on the female rig and the male pose on the male rig.
Like this:
Once your poses are appended in blender, go to the nonlinear animation tab.
If I had to guess, the reason you're posing both at the same time is because you have both tracks selected (as in, both of them are highlighted like this at once).
We want to highlight ONLY ONE, I'm going to pose Ariss first.
So I'll select her track (see how only hers is highlighted?) then Add the pose.
You can see, very creepily lmfao, that Ariss is the only one posed now!
Do the same for your other sim, selecting only their track, and voila:
They're both posed now!
I hope this helps! Please send any more questions my way! & I HAVE A DISCORD NOW!
