I’ve run into a weird issue. While attempting to weight paint a mesh I found that the brush will only add, even when CTRL (subtract) or SHIFT (blur) are used.
I added a second mesh object and armature to the scene and weight painting works as expected – but only if I choose to parent with automatic weights?
On the original mesh it doesn’t matter if I choose empty groups or automatic.
I’ve tried everything I can think of to troubleshoot this; brush settings, vertex groups, fresh file, even a factory reset in case an addon or something was gumming up the works. No luck.
So I’m hoping to get some fresh eyes on this to see if anyone can help me sort out where I’ve gone wrong. Thank you!
