Binding multiple joints to multiple objects

[jerzybochenek10]

Hello,

I have multiple joints and multiple objects on my scene:

Each wooden plank is a separate object. I would like to bind one joint to one plank without doing it manually one by one. Is there any way you could help me solve this problem?

Thank you in advance!

It is possible, but that would be easier to be done with a script. Yet..

Are those planks each unique? Can't you bind one, then duplicate with offset? Also, if you have one plank per joint and no influence to the neighbors, why would you necessarily use bind? You can use parenting or constraining, and again, duplicating saves time.

I found the sollution by myself 😄

I had to select the joints and planks that I wanted to bind and then choose this combination of options in Bind Skin tool:

Now each and every plank has a joint binded to it:

you could also just set max influences to 1 on closest
