Can't orient Lightwave character?

Hi

I’m having trouble orienting the rig on a quick lightwave character. OK, so it’s the first one I’ve built and rigged in LW for Unity. It won’t rotate on the y axis, I’ve unparented and set the rotation but it pitches whatever I do.

I was thinking maybe it’s the orientation of the root bone which as you can see is, well horizontal? I guess I’ve answered my own question?

Is that what it is, any thoughts?

Thanks!

do you mean it’s importing on it’s side? lightwave comes in sideways. you need to rotate it in lightwave. i’d be surprised if it’s the root bone. post your lws file if you want and i’ll take a look.

welcome but did that fix it? :slight_smile:

Yep! No prob, thanx. Smoothed out all the non-character issues as well.
