Finished this a week so ago but didn't get time to make a video so doing it now. This was more or less my 1st Rigg I did which was more Mechanical then Organic. The biggest hassle was figuring out...yup you guessed it, the MEL coding to get the treads to work properly. The actual turning of the treads is done using a Animation Wire Tool and where the MEL came in was controlling the movement of the treds when the droid was dragged in the Z-Axis Translation.
Other then that, only other major NEW thing I learned was how was the discovery to mib_color_ mix Mental Ray Utility, it basically lets you plug multiple File Textures into the utility which u can slide AND key between easily. I used this for the face textures to go between Happy, Sad, Angry and Neutral faces.
Quick Update with a video showing off the facial textures changing to showoff different Emotions.
As always, critiques and comments welcomed.
