hi guys i have a basic character rigged in maya using the joint tool then using bind skin to bind the two together.

my questions are, if i select a joint it selects all the joints parented to it, but nothing else? can i select individual joints?? and can i select joints above the joint i selected instead of below it??? :headbang:

ps. what wud be the best way to rig a basic character, i started with the head then moved down the body, with all the joints eventually linking to the 1st head joint????
