TV Man Animation Knobs Reset Translation

[mrrogersmith]

I am working through the Learn 3D Modeling for Beginners series and am on Section 5: Rigging and Animation. I have just finished animating the walk cycle for the TV man, but I am experiencing a problem. The TV knobs on the front of the TV keep resetting themselves to the world center. I’m not sure exactly when this happens, but I know it at least happens when I run through the animation. It happened before I started working on the animation, too, but I was paying attention to other things so I didn’t notice the other cause.

I’ve tried unparenting and reparenting the knobs (along with the tv and the screen) to the head bone, but that hasn’t worked.

You need to remove the keyframe from the knobs. Then you can move them to where you want them and then parent them to the bone.
