Adding Squash and Stretch to Human IK

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I'm an artist setting up a Human IK rig. All is going well except I cannot figure out how to set up Squash and Stretch onto the arms, legs and spine. 

Does anyone have and good tutorials for artist or advice?

I have this reference but I don't understand how to apply it: http://help.autodesk.com/view/HUMANIK/2016/ENU/?guid=__files_GUID_2E03D763_48F3_4177_9386_35847D1251...

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks

Hi,

It's great that that is working for you but I am using the same tutorial set of videos and running in to the same issues presumably as the poster above. 

You see, the FIRST THING that he begins to do in "Creating a Character Rig - Part 5: Torso squash and stretch"

(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ip-5PD3aNIg&t=0s) is go in to the Node Editor and attach the "World Space" information from the "Spine Curve" to a "curveInfo" node. However, he is working in Maya 2013. In Maya 2018 there is no output from the "Spine Curve" that is called "World Space". There is "World Matrix", "World Inverse Matrix", and "World Normal". This is very frustrating.

I'm not sure how exactly it appears BUT if you go to the "Other" option in the curve's output menu and start expanding all of the options, "World Space" does in fact appear.

Kindly,

Gabriel

@Anonymous But how do you bypass or add it to an HiK?
