Hello! I’d like to ask you about a solution because every time I record a simulation, the shape of the Rexdol plug-in gets weirdly deformed.
Even if I play the animation before simulating the plug-in, it stays in good shape.
It may be a problem that the plug-in shapes overlap with each other, so it is the same even if I place them so that they do not overlap with each other.
It looks weird after recording a simulation, distorted like this. Is there a solution?
Please turn the translator and understand that the sentence is strange.
Hi @20212397, welcome to the forums! 
It’s a little hard to see, but it looks like each link is an independent Marker, rather than one that is connected to its parent?
Here’s how I’d approach a situation like this.
- Assign and Connect
This way, they remain connected and won’t require what looks like a Distance Constraint you’ve been using.
- Attach tip to root
Create a loop by attaching the end to the beginning using an Attach Constraint
- Tune
Edit the values to make it look like a chain, in this case Scene Scale and Rotate Stiffness on the group, along with the pivot of the Attach Constraint which is where the rotation happen.
Did this answer your question?

Thank you for your help. Although I resolved the issue through a different approach, I will definitely make use of the tips you provided. :미소:
Great! Would you be able to share the approach you used to solve the problem? It might help someone else in the future. 
Yes, in fact, I tried several methods, so I’m not sure which one was the key solution. Nevertheless, I’ll share the steps I took:
Creating more joints
I’m not entirely sure, but after doing this, the shape seemed to appear a bit smoother.
Using ‘orient joint’ to accurately set the joint direction.
Recording the ragdoll simulation from frame 0
The issue I mentioned was resolved in a surprisingly simple way. When I restarted the simulation recording from frame 0, the result turned out much better.
And finally, the position where I applied the ragdoll simulation is as shown.
I hope this post can be helpful. As a student, there’s still a lot I don’t know, but I’ve been learning a lot through the ragdoll community. I’m grateful to the developers for creating such great plugins.
