Errata: new update for the two handed prop tutorial

In an effort to fully support our readers I am posting this update on the main blog and the main google errta doc has been updated as well.


###################################

Chapter 8: page 164 step 7:
change

Select the “staffCtrl” node and group it with Ctrl+g.
To

Select the “
staff_Ctrl node and group it with Ctrl+g.
Chapter 8: page 165 step 12:
change
Group this node and rename it “staff_r_hand_offset_attach.”
To

Group this node and rename it
staff_r_hand_attach.”
(this change is to the name only. so that step 13 makes sense.)
Your really doing the same thing as you did in the knife tutorial but
adding an extra target and switch for the left hand to
be stuck on to the spear...the concepts are the same)

*also note that once the rig is done you can clean up the visual
hierarchy like you did at the end of the knife rig.
