Hi,

I'm working through a tutorial and at the moment I'm binding my mesh to a skeleton. It talks about adjusting the Drop Off Rate of the joints, using the Smooth Skin Parameters section in the attribute editor for the joint.

Thing is, I'm using 8.5 and I don't see it. I see the Smooth Skin Attributes section but don't think it's the same thing since it doesn't have anything re Dropoff. It offers the ability to alter the Maximum influences, but that's all.

Anyone know where I should be looking in 8.5? Also, generally, what other options re joint influence can I look at and tweak before I start painting weights?

thanks,

gubar.
