🚩 Quest 1: Rig the Waist X

We'll be using the Waist [XY] deformer and keying it to the Body X Augment parameter.

🧰 Waist X

  • Deformer: Waist [XY]
  • Parameter: Body X Augment

Deform the waist for Body X Augment = 10, then reflect the motion to -10 for the opposite direction.

🚩 Quest 2: Rig the Hips X

Use the Hips [XY] deformer, and also tie it to the Body X Augment parameter.

If your model has visible hip lines or clothing details around the hips, make sure to align and warp the mesh to follow the direction of the body tilt.

🧰 Hips X

  • Deformer: Hips [XY]
  • Parameter: Body X Augment

🚩 Quest 3: Rig the Armor Skirt & Clear Skirt X

We’ll do the same for the model’s skirt deformers. These parts should follow the same body tilt.

🧰 Armor Skirt & Clear Skirt X

  • Deformers:
    • Armor Skirt [XY]
    • Clear Skirt [XY]
  • Parameter: Body X Augment

Deform both of these parts on Body X Augment = 10, then reflect for the -10 value.
