Skeleton bone convention names

Hello!

A friend is just helping me to make a model Mechanim ready.
So far he only worked with UDK.
He asked me for the "skeleton bone convention names" for Mechanim.

Is this a valid ressource for this?

Thank you for the help!

 

Yes, that's the best resource because it describes which bones are needed, how they should be connected, and what naming conventions work best with the auto-mapper. Mecanim doesn't require specific bone names, but some naming schemes are easier for the mapper to figure out. If you have a model whose skeleton you like (such as the Dude model in the Mecanim examples), you could give your friend a copy to use as a reference.
