Maya animation update 11
🕑 Added 2025-08-24 13:15:21 +0000 UTCI made a quick test render of the animation, just to see if everything was in order. I’m glad I did that, as in the very end, the mattress starts to suck down the thigh of the character. I was so excited to get it rendered, that I missed that error before rendering xD.
The issue with the mattress and the thigh was that the mattress gets pushed so far down, the top of the mattress goes through the bottom of itself, so the inside catches the thigh. The mattress then tries to move the character mesh to the right side, which is now under the mattress. The solution was to disable a function that makes the mattress a one side object. Now the thigh stays normal, even when the mattress still gets squeezed so flat.
I also got a couple of other issues fixed that had appeared, like the hands got a bit too close to the body mesh.
The mattress physics got changed so it gets flattened a bit more when the character moves around on top of it.
I tried to look for further render optimizations, I managed to reduce the total render time by, I think, 75 hours.
So now, I’ve started the final rendering and by the time of writing, image 270 out of 5850 have been rendered.
