Adjust retargeting parameters

To adjust retargeting parameters

  1. In the HumanIK window, select > Edit Character Definition > Edit HIK Properties.

    The retargeting settings display on the HIKProperties tab in the Attribute Editor.

    Note:

    The HIKProperties node also includes many other HIK solver attributes such as Solving and Floor Contact. Those attributes are beyond the scope of this documentation.

  2. Expand the Retarget Specific heading.

    This section contains attributes that give you finer control over the retargeting between your source and target characters. See Retarget Specific attributes for more information.

    Use the following guidelines when manipulating the Reach sliders:

    • At 1, the target body part reaches fully toward the source body part.
    • At 0.50, the target body part averages between the body part of the source and the character’s position.
    • At 0, the effect on the body part is the same as disabling the option.
    Note:

    The Retarget Specific section also includes Pull and Stiffness attributes. Adjusting these values is an advanced technique and for normal retargeting, adjusting the default values is not recommended.
