    I'm adapting an older animation for use in Mecanim, mostly to learn retargeting. So far, it looks pretty good, but the original model only used the thumb and two fingers on each hand, and the mesh of the remaining fingers are skinned to the middle finger. I've tried to use the bones for the middle finger in the ring and pinky fingers, but Mecanim gives me an error.

    Does anyone know I can adapt the animation so it will work with five-fingered models. As a complete noob, I'm thinking that the ring and pinky fingers should follow the middle finger, but I have no idea how to do it. Any ideas? Thanks.
