revet also . its not working .. any one can help me on this issue ?? .. i hope u people got the issue

Joojaa do you have any solution :think: plz plz help me

Ahh see referencing is a bit tricky you cat just go and edit stuff in references freely once the graph is set its set. Or you may end up loosing part of it. Nothing to do with parent constraint per see could happen with any other node too.

See whenever you have referenced stuff be sure you understand WHICH file it is your saving and what goes where.

But yeas you allready lost the data when you did the save, wich im afraid dint do what you expected.

Only constrains is giving issuee .. other all things is working fine.. :think: and auto saving constrain also looking good and working fine no issue.. after save and reopen file all constrains is missing .. is we can do something in refernce files i mean asset file ??? or any script can help us to make clear this ??

[joojaa]

What autosave? Would make more sense if you would tell me how things are constructed. Its like trying to say something to question my car is broken. (in general you start by cheeking if you have gas)

Anyway yes i know your experiencing problems with your constraint but that does not man any other node couldn't get the same problem. Its about how you append stuff to your references, a reference file is self contained and your not free to muck up connections to it as yu like. You must undrestand what you may and may not do.

oke can i make more clear

I have 2 asset file .. Its rigged and filnal file for animation one char and one prop(eg:hat)

and i am using refernce and i am refernced this file to my scene file with Namespace

and i am doing animation . all other things animation vfx all things working fine what ever

changes i am making to main rig file its get reflected to my maya animation scene file

oke thts look great . oke now i want to make a constrain .

I want to to make constrain with char head with hat i mean prop .. here also all working fine

now i wan to save my maya scene .. saved .. but after that while i open my scene again

i can see my animation there is no issue . but i just made a constrain with hat and char head thts gone

hat on 0,0 .. this is the issue we facing now ..

[joojaa]

Yes but is the hat in same file as you character and what file is the constraint in? If the hat and the char is in the same file and you just put a constraint in second file then you have a potentially dramatic problem. Preferably the constraint should be in place in the original rig file.

Hai Jooja

In our case char and prop files are diffrent maya files only .. and using diffrent namespace also
So is it will make sence ???
