Mfacejaw rigging don't work

[MaxTux Wonder]

In blender i've made a custom joint points skeleton, with mfacejaw bone dislocated, when i try to animate it in blender all is fine, when i import in Secondlife i get a bone rotation distortion, i've tried different bone poses, resizes, locatings, nothing changes.

Is the face Root joint included in the skin data, even if with no weights? Missing a joint in the hierarchy when ancestors and descendents are included in the deformation data causes issues, especially on custom joint positions setups

As you can see in the image mfacejaw is correctly parented with mhead bone

As i can see, mfacejaw is INCORRECTLY parented to mhead. All face joints are childrens of mfaceroot and you can't change the parent-child relationships. It simply can't be done that way, you can remove what you don't use, but you can't remove the intermediate joints of those that you use.

as you can see in the video, if i add the mFaceRoot bone, i get more distortion in the animation, the jaw is dislocated, i've applied all transformations in blender just to be sure, and checked the joint points import in SL

Have you also added mfaceroot to the skin cluster as well? Otherwise its transforms would be assumed as default locations and there's no difference from removing it altogether. As I mentioned in a previous post, even though it's not used, a joint that is intermediate between two used joints needs to be included in the skincluster data even if it has zero weights (i think skincluster translates to Blender vertex groups)

thank you very much! now seems to work!

i own you one
