Every other tutorial that I have seen on this topic uses a much more confusing and slow method for this which involves exporting twice, so I made this tutorial as I believe the method I use is much quicker and more effective

0:00 Start
0:05 Rig set up
0:24 Export Rig
0:36 Import Rig
0:49 Rig clean up
1:36 Adding the IK rig
2:05 Locate IK rig's exportable armature
2:20 Join weapon to rig
2:35 Set weapon's parent
3:12 Ready to animate
3:33 Animation export

    Something important which I forgot to mention in the video, is that you'll need to use the __RigMeta of the IMPORTED weapon rig, not the one that comes with the IK rig. Although, if you follow the steps in the same order of the video, it should be fine

    This would've been helpful if i had yesterday😭 But now people have a good tutorial to follow👍

    God, thank you for your work. I just can't watch these videos where people try to explain how to tie an object to a rig's arm for about 20 minutes. After that, watched ya another video about ragdoll's, and it is what I needed — straight and simple. (Which is good)
