scaling avatar's body parts

[shai]

Hello,

i'm trying to scale individual body parts on a female avatar-

i've tried:
"avatar.getchild('f_Head.cmx').scale(2,1,1)"
and
"avatar.getchild('f_Head').scale(2,1,1)"
and
"head=avatar.getchild('f_Head.cmx')
head.scale(2,1,1)"

etc...

and they all didn't work (nothing happens)

is there a way to do this?
thanks,
shai

Hi,

Currently there is no method to scale individual parts of an avatar. If you just want to scale the head and you are using a vzf head, then you can directly scale that.

Is there anyway that we could scale the different parts of the avatar by scaling the bones inside of avatar?

You can apply an offset to a bone, which will cause the mesh to stretch. However, if you want to apply a uniform scale, this is not possible. Here is some code showing how to apply bone offsets:import viz
viz.go()

avatar = viz.add('vcc_male.cfg',pos=(0,0,5),euler=(180,0,0) )
avatar.state(4)

#Offset the head bone, which will cause the neck to stretch
head = avatar.getBone('Bip01 Head')
head.offset(0.1,0,0)

Thanks for your help!
