Hello! Im using a pre rigged and skinned mesh from cc3 and ive added controls to it to help with animation. Im running into a wall when trying to do something like parent my gun mesh to the proper bone/point using kinefx. Ive tried attach to points and it gets the weapon in the correct position but it does not follow the bone while posing. Im sure this system is capable of handling this task, im just at a loss on how to get it done. Any ideas will help! Thanks in advance.

Take a look at the Capture Packed Geometry SOP which is the recommended workflow if you've got both regular skinned geometry and rigid transforms. This allows you to keep all your geometry in the “Skin Geometry” data stream, and all the animated stuff in the “Animated Pose” data stream.

Yes I seen that but I figured that was for a Sop skeleton that was rigged in sops. My skeleton is already there and im trying to attach things to its bones. This system confuses me. But what youre saying is the capture Packed geo node can take in my gun mesh and attach it to the skeletal mesh thats already there?
