If I'm making a model, say, with arms and legs, is it better to add all the limbs first, and then link them all? Or should I add each limb and link it to the last one as I go?

I believe DBPro renumbers the limbs as they are linked, so I just wondered which method is best.

Ive never done that but I would add it then link it to the last one and since it might change the limb number I would perform a checklist and store the limb numbers somewhere i can call them easy.

[edit] actually if it might change the limb number then you should make them all then connect them then checklist then store. ya or whatever

we have to link first:
main bone(limb 0)/left leg(limb 1)/left knee(limb 2)/left foot(limb 3)...etc.
Then we have to link left leg to main bone first than adding left knee.....

Cheers.
