IK Group Problems

Post by Luis Nieto »

Hello, good Day. I've been trying to make our Poppy legframe preliminarily move its joints using inverse kinematics. Once I get this polished I will move to more advanced experiments. In the meantime, I am having a problem I do not know how to resolve with on IK pairing on the model. Although I am pretty sure I followed the IK-pairing process correctly, the tip-dummy on the foot doesn't meet with its paired target. It's positioned way off along the -y direction therefore the entire leg moves diagonally to the side instead moving straight forward and up where the target is. I wish I could share my images but they're in my google drive.

How may I fix this so that the two dummies can connect like they're supposed to? Thank you.

Here a photos for context for this problem I have. These photos shows how offset the foot's tip and target are from each other when the simulation is turned on.

Foot when simulation is off:

Foot when simulation is on:

I sincerely hope anyone could guide me on what I should do to remedy my drawback.

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

please post your scene, otherwise it is impossible to say what is going on. But my guess is that your IK constraints are wrong.

Cheers
