Subject: Bone joints - they look awful
X-Listprocessor-Version: 6.0c -- ListProcessor by Anastasios Kotsikonas
Status: O
X-Status:



        Well, the subject header pretty much says it all.

        I've just set up a skeletal structure for a character I'm working
on, and everything deforms well with the bones except for the joints.  They
look awful.  It looks they're being folded, instead of retaining their
natural shape.  Does anybody know how to work around this?  I've tried
shifting the pivot points of the bones relative to the joint, but it hasn't
done much good.  Should I be modifying the model in some way so that the
joints will deform better with bones?


        Thanks in advance for all help,
                Jonathon Bowman
