Weight of Subject w/model

Post by Kathleen Reilly » Wed Dec 31, 2008 8:50 am

I've been using the gait 2392 model, which seems to have a "default" weight of I think 75kg. I have noticed that when I scale subjects close in weight, everything turns out better. When I scale much lighter subjects(ie 28kg), things tend to be very messy. I thought this might be because the inertia tensor is not being adjusted accordingly, but based on the user manual, it is. Is there another property I need to adjust for these smaller, lighter subjects that I might be missing? Thanks!

Hi Kathleen,

I have been able to scale light subjects using a 75 kg model. I would double check your scale.xml settings.
