IK strange behavior

[andrew]

Hi Yeah
i want to tell you guys about a newly discovered bug in Miarmy.

I just started creating a new agent of my own based on your setup Rig.

after building the original agent and refined it, i went to creating my actions.
now comes the problem.

If i create a simple walk cycle, and use the inverse kinematics to animate my arms, then when i place my agent and play the cycle. the upper arms starts to float and jump around and the lower arms just spin around.

I have verified that this only occurs when i use the IK handles. if i animate in FK then there is no problem.

i also tested the agent cache again and it still does not work with the Bone translate option, however the mesh drive 2 and 3 works great.
I am also providing you with the scene for you to examine.

have a nice weekend
regards
Andrew

Dear andrew,

Thank you for your feedback, we're so sorry about this,

You were using our old rigging system.
We know that the IK indeed have problem,

Therefore, in the all Miarmy new materials and tutorials, we delete this system and please use the Human IK instead,
www.basefount.com/download/video-menu

and we also provided some preset agents for directly use at here:
and we're still upgrading them:
