I start most rigs simple with > 24fps. And then the animator requests roll in.
“But we NEED a forward and reverse FK IK spine that can space switch between pinky and head!”
“But we NEED IK fingers and a reverse palm roll.”
But this will slow down the rig.
“But we NEED it!” ? https://t.co/Zd0O86Ro6e http://twitter.com/NielsRoscher/status/1256470087655137282

RT @RihamToulan: I just realized the matchTransform command #maya3d also fails in the scale case I mention in this blog post. Use the suggested method instead if you often reflect your transforms between right and left-hand coordinates. #rigtip

Nice performance comparison for connecting transforms to reforming geometry.

RT @riggingdojo: Need to disable custom pickwalking to work on your rig that is all tagged up with the Maya “Controller” tag? Here is a fix, thank you Team Autodesk. #rigtip #pickwalking #Maya https://t.co/hZcVhVlopw http://twitter.com/NielsRoscher/status/1238764329723473923

This is an amazing performance increase when dragging controls in the viewport! I got a rig from 4fps to 22fps by just tagging all controls as “Controller”. It went from 1 core at 100% to 12 cores at 75%. Animation playback went slightly down though (28fps -> 22fps). #rigTip https://t.co/rCnykGf7cq http://twitter.com/NielsRoscher/status/1238144672540876801

This sounds a bit too good to be true. Could it be this simple? This is Maya we’re talking about. I’ve got to try this tomorrow! #hope https://t.co/rCnykGf7cq http://twitter.com/NielsRoscher/status/1237464767083798528

Very nice! #rigTip https://t.co/uaWoJ0HRez http://twitter.com/NielsRoscher/status/1237087982982742017
