    Idk if this is the right place to post this, but I wanted to share this with you:

    Create and use Hand-Meshes to quickly setup IK-Targets for Hands on Weapons. (using the Animation Rigging Package)

    Don't forget to set the size of the shape to 1.

    Hi Hannibal_Leo,

    Very cool! This is a great use of the ability to load custom meshes as effector display shapes. I can see how you are getting an accurate hand alignment this way and when you activate the IK constraint the hands align perfectly. I hadn't thought of using it this way. It would definitely help improve efficiency with setting up multiple weapons and props across a library of characters in a game production.

    Great idea and thanks for sharing!
