quick tutorial on how to âcopy/pasteâ poses into another blend file with @vyxated's ea rigplus
for those who have all their poses in separate files like me because thereâs no tutorials on it for some reason
DISCLAIMER: this does NOT go over how to make poses, work the rigplus, or navigate blender!!!
// before we proceed, prepare the following:
blend file containing your pose with a timeline window open (hereafter referred to as [BLEND A])
blend file containing the rigplus for the pose to be âpastedâ into with an asset browser window open (hereafter referred to as [BLEND B])
// ok letâs get on with the actual tutorial now
in [BLEND A], insert a keyframe with BOTH rigs visible. make sure the normal rig is still selected! (for good measure, i like to clear my keyframes for both rigs to make sure i donât have any duplicates or anything)
hide the normal rig and select the rigplus. then, in your timeline window, click âcopy pose as assetâ.
without closing [BLEND A], open [BLEND B]. in your asset browser, switch the library from âallâ to âcurrent fileâ. then on the header, click âasset > paste as new assetâ.
hide the normal rig and select the rigplus (again). right click on your newly created pose asset, hit âapply poseâ, and profit (donât forget to keyframe again as you normally would!)
i canât paste the pose as a new asset!
make sure you do NOT close the blend file youâre copying the pose from! leave it open until after youâve added the pose to the asset library.
when i try to apply the pose, nothing happens!
this is probably because you didnât have the right rig selected. after inserting a keyframe, make sure the normal rig is hidden and the rigplus is selected when you copy the pose!
this is the method i figured out when i was making my first all-in-one pose animation. copy-pasting poses as you would with the normal rig doesn't work with the rigplus, so i fiddled around a bit until i came up with this!
dm me or send an ask if you have any questions! i'm certainly no expert, but i'll do my best to help!
