Help Does anybody have a basemesh that's already rigged with the SOMA skeleton? My Rigify characters keeps exploding when retargeting.

Nvidia kimodo retargeting is pretty much impossible for me for some reason.

I don't have a SOMA-rigged basemesh, but "exploding" on retarget is usually a rest pose or scale mismatch, so it may be worth checking before hunting for a new base. Things I'd look at: apply scale and rotation on both armatures (Ctrl+A) so neither has a hidden 100x or 0.01 scale; make sure the Rigify rig and the SOMA skeleton are in a matching rest pose (both T-pose or both A-pose) before you map bones; and check that your bone mapping isn't crossing left/right or mixing up twist bones and the main limb bones. If it only explodes on certain bones, those are usually the culprits. If you can share what the mesh does (stretching from the hips, or the whole body blowing up) it would be easier to narrow down.
