IK problem
I made a skeleton for a model the other day and had no trouble at all. All of the limits and degrees of freedom are the same on this skeleton as on my previous model (and the skeleton itself is almost identical), but for some reason this arm refuses to bend. Every joint in the arm won't rotate when I apply IK to it, it just moves around dead straight.
Any ideas what's wrong? His legs are working fine, so I don't see what's different.

I could swear I already tried that, and it didn't fix it, but now it seems to work. Strange.
Maya is playing with my mind.
Thanks.

This could work?
Go into the attributes for the ik handle and make sure the stickyness of the ik handle is set to ON, I had a similar problem recently and found that for some reason maya was putting this attribute to off as default, i turned it on and boom it worked a treat? Hope that works for ya
