Cannot get armature to move the mesh I made the Armature Layout to mirror up to my mesh but I cannot get it to symmetrize.
The armature also will not connect to the mesh.
When I move it it doesn't grab the mesh, this is my first project, so I'm thinking its something simple that I just overlooked. Any help is greatly appreciated.
See this answer regarding mirroring bones.
The armature has to be a &quot;parent&quot; of the mesh in order to move it. In order to do this, in Object Mode select the mesh then Shift + click the armature. Ctrl + P to parent and select With Automatic Weights for best results. You can move the bones by selecting the armature and switching to pose mode.
I suggest watching/reading a comprehensive guide for rigging a character and adjusting it, as it's challenging, even for intermediate users.
