Body Sinks In When Sitting Down

[Vamparo Zapatero]

I just cameback from a hiatus, so I got into the whole mesh body/head stuff. Been using the signature Gianni mesh body for lil bit now, still figuring everything out.

But I noticed when I sit down, use poses etc. That my "junk" area sinks in, and looks really weird.

I've tried different pants and they all seem to do this.

In the first 2 pics I'm wearing the fitted Signature versions of the pants, and theres a part where a big bump sticks out and a part that sinks in.

In the last 2 pics I'm wearing the non fitted versions and there's no bump, just a huge sink hole.

I'm sure jokes could be made about this and the pics LOL But yeah it's weird and trying to figure out what the problem is. I thought maybe it was just on my end and i was the only one seeing it, but seems other ppl see it aswell.

The pants are not rigged well. Nothing can be done about it. Burn the pants and buy new ones. Make sure to try demos first, observe how they behave while sitting down and also in other animations and poses. Finally buy the pair which behaves well. Done.

Thanks, I had tried the demo on them, just didn't know they would do what they did on sit poses. But from now on will test demos on poses. Their stuff usually was fine before I had the mesh bodies and stuff, so like I said still figuring this all out.

That's a pretty unusual find too. I don't think most of us would think to test on a sit pose because most of us have not encountered anything like this before.

That said - I will take your own comment as advice and remember to also test things I desire to buy in a sit pose from now on.

I already do a common female version of this - I have some intense 'bosom settings' I use to make sure I won't pop through a top when moving. Put on the 'shaky' physics file, dial bosom up to max, and see what it looks like when doing a dance animation.

I'm sure there's a couple of these tests we all ought to be doing each time... but often forget to.
